I think it's very good. Kudos to them also for not showing IT as a clown.

Pennywise is such a shitty total nonsense character, so maybe this can remedy that? Is that the idea? I somehow doubt it. This is so far the usual It nonsense where anything can happen and never needs explanation or motivation etc.

I do love the cast though, the little Italian guy especially. It looks great too. Not sure why i get 720P though, using a cable so i should be fine. But no.

"It" is probably King's most overrated work due to the awful Pennywise. Freddy Krueger and maybe even Jason are so much better written with more depth and they are not even based of some book, they were B-movie characters. Pennywise feels like he belongs in a C64 horror platformer, that's the extent of his ""depth"". Remains to be seen if something can be done to explain him.

Last week I finished The Institute, another show based on a King book and also with a group of kids and a secret army-like organisation (show's pretty good btw).

Watching an episode of that and then one of this was very confusing at times Laughing Now Stranger Things adding more to the pile
