Default Clowns!

Who thinks they're funny, and who thinks they're evil and scary and not at all funny? Anyone have a phobia about clowns? Obvious exception is Krusty: nobody could consider him scary. But others? They give me the creeps.

The best are funny, imo, cuz they make can light of the deadly serious. Course, I'm expanding the definition of clown to comic and/or mimic.

I'll check that dictionary, but in the meantime I'm impressed - as is everyone else in the world - by your eloquence, obvious accomplishments and success, and the evidence of your blazingly high intelligence.

Tried watching the IT remake. Can't get into it. They ruined pennywise imo.

The original was half great and half ****... The special affects were corny and the second half was trash but pennywise when he was normal and didn't have the sharp teeth was creepy af. The scene at the beginning with Georgie in that sewer was classic.. they butchered it in the remake. I turned it off after probably 30 mins.

I'm sorry you have **** taste.

My critique is that it came off as a horror themed marvel film at times and didn't really use the idea of IT being a sort of reflection of the hateful history of the town like in the book. A hick town in the 80s and not one person called the kid the N word either. Like they hate gay people in 2018 but not black people in the 80s? Bull****.

Art Is Dead. Buy My ****.

The original has nostalgic value for me cause it was one of the first movies I saw. Saw it when I was 5.

Don't really like most horror movies and definitely don't like most marvel movies.

Same. I prefer a creepy vibe to jump scares. **** is just too formulaic and predictable. I can't suspend disbelief. Same reason I can't get into haunted houses as an adult.
