Califan007 The Constipated

This hit me in the feels lol...seriously.

And the scene of the black family in the pool. I think the guy with the plastic bottles was the hotel manager, and a black family staying in the hotel went swimming in the pool...he started pouring acid into the pool because he wanted the black family out.

That's a good point about Wig. I'm really excited to see how the casting  shapes up. I hope it's not too long of a wait for the sequel

 

I loved the cheers and applause when chapter one pops up at the end. 

Just saw that Jessica Chastain was apparently the choice for adult Beverly...that would work.

"It" is doing great at the box office:

"The studio that gave us A Nightmare on Elm Street and The Conjuring horror franchises has created another milestone for the genre with their feature adaptation of Stephen King’s It, which is now on course to slot the best opening day ever for an R-rated and horror title with an estimated $51M  (easily smashing Deadpool‘s $47.3M) and the second best R-title three-day between  $103.4M-$108M, behind Deadpool‘s $132.4M. In addition, for any post-summer title opening before November, It‘s weekend is higher than anything released prior in September or October.

With no signs this AM of It slowing down (East Coast sales are brisk) and with good holds expected for tonight, some longtime box office observers are thinking this film could even float up to $120M by the time the screaming stops late Sunday."

I agree Cali. Really just the cars, clothes and that one running joke made it feel late 80s. The rest of the movie and the town itself felt like the old version and pulled from the late 60s in a lot of ways. 

 

The adult version will obviously be 2016/17. 

 

I am nominating Kristin Wig as the adult version of Beverly. That was the immediate impression I got from her. Thought maybe it was her daughter even.

Wiig kinda looks like the adult Bevery, but she doesn't convey confidence nearly enough to be Beverly imo...Wiig's kinda hesitant-insecure persona works well for her comedy but Beverly in this movie was incredibly confident in numerous scenes...I'd prefer someone who can convey confidence just as strongly and is maybe a relative unknown so that I'm not looking at the actress but the character. It's gonna be interesting to see how they cast the adult versions in Chapter 2.

By the way, people in my audience applauded when "Chapter 1" was shown at the end lol...

Also saw It tonight, agree with others that it's entertaining and creepy--Pennywise is just DAMN creepy, much better imo than Tim Curry's take. Think of Jack Nicholson's Joker compared to Heath Ledger's Joker lol...the movie was also funnier than I was expecting, and all the kids were really good, especially the young girl who played Beverly. I agree with @drowland in his spoiler text about one of the characters, hadn't realized why I was thinking that way until I read it, though.

The movie may have the Mother Of All Jump Scares in it, too lol...

Also, and this is no real spoiler, the movie is supposed to take place in 1988, but doesn't feel like it. Felt more like it was taking place in the late 60s for a large part of the movie. On the other end, I thought i saw a high school student talking on a cell phone in one scene lol...outside of one very funny running joke that speaks to the late 80s, I didn't get that feeling of a particular time in the past.

Finally saw Baby Driver...that was a helluva lot of fun, and GREAT soundtrack.

I won the day! I won the day! Most liked posts yesterday, the first day of (meaningless) football!  

 

This is one of the greatest achievements of my life.  I know that I'll never be up there with the likes of @Califan007 (87) (Holy Crap!) or @TK (31) but with a little luck, I might catch  @ConnSKINS26(17) by the end of the season!  

The game is on! (And this game might actually be more interesting than anything in the preseason, so, why not!)

 

Wait, what?....What do I have 87 of? lol...

Is that type of attitude something you want to root for???  Dude sounds like a douche.

He's a great guy off the field, and he backs up his bravado in a billion different ways on the field. I have zero problem with Norman.

Does your stance have to do with how he and Dez went back and forth during the Thanksgiving game? lol...

Is retardedly even a word, redneck? 

Pretty sure the word he typed was not "retardedly" lol...

Thought Wonder Woman was good, if more than a bit overrated. Very little in the movie had me saying "Wow" or smiling or laughing out loud or anything...it was like a solid 6.5 out of 10 from beginning to end, with a few 7s and 8s sprinkled in.

Just saw this trailer...right up my alley lol..(NSFW - language)

Regarding the strength of schedule theory:

 

Past 5 years, the combined records of the teams in our division:

Cowboys:  37-27

Eagles: 34-30

Giants: 30-34

Redskins: 24-39-1

 

Hardest schedule within division for past 5 years:

2017: Redskins, Giants, Cowboys, Eagles

2016: Redskins, Eagles, Cowboys, Giants

2015: Giants, Redskins, Eagles, Cowboys

2014: Redskins, Cowboys, Eagles, Giants

2013: Redskins, Eagles, Giants, Cowboys

 

For the last 5 years, we have been the weakest team in the division.  Despite this, in 5 years we have NEVER been given the easiest strength of schedule within our division.  We have also NEVER been given the second easiest strength of schedule within the division.  In fact, 4 out of the past 5 years we have been given the HARDEST schedule in the division, with the one year exception being the second hardest in 2015 (1 place lower than the Giants).

 

That's because we never had the 3-13 or 4-12 Redskins on our schedule lol...

I'm the same way - I love the psychological, slowburn, tension-building horror. The gory stuff just doesn't do anything for me.

You should like this movie, then...and the sound design and score are incredible. Just adds to the tension and unease.

It looks like I need to check out Blackcoat's Daughter...sounds awesome.

I really liked it...but I tend to like horror movies that are full of dread moreso than full of gore (although this movie has some rather nasty stuff as well).

Whew, The Blackcoats Daughter was really creepy and downright nasty.  A damn fine horror flick, unconventional and bleak.

 

Recommended...but it's not for everyone.

What did you think of the ending?...And did you figure out who everyone was in the movie?

The Blackcoat's Daughter

Atmospheric as hell. There's a palpable sense of unease from the first frame to the final one. Acting is solid pretty much across the board, with Shipka the most impressive. If you're someone who craves jump scares and a brisk pace in your horror movies, you may not get too into this movie. It's a bit more deliberate and has some mysteries and twists that need to be figured out. It's also a movie that you'll be thinking about the rest of the weekend. I give it a B+.

You need to copyright that phrase, pronto lol...

It's semantics but we are talking about the same people / incident. Perhaps I'm misspeaking as well but they were terrorists who were trying to kill many people.

It's not semantics in the way she brought it up, though...plus it's more than a little scary that pretty much anyway someone decides to characterize facts is more than OK as long as there's some level of truth in there somewhere. That's how the whole "Redskin = bloody indian scalp" hooey got passed on as fact for so long.
