Movie Talk

What movie could you enjoy seeing over and over again?

There are a lot of good movies I would love to watch over and over again, but the main one is the remake of 'IT' written by Stephen King. The movie is about a killer clown who kidnaps and eats children. He kidnaps one of the main characters, Bill's little brother Georgie. Bill is determined to find out what happened to his brother, so he and his three best friends, Stan, Eddie, and Richie. Along the way, they meet Beverly (aka Bev), Mike, and Ben. They all have odd things about them, such as Bill has a stutter, Eddie is asthmatic and his mother makes him take placebos, making him think he is sick (which he later finds out he isn't), Stan has OCD, Richie has family problems, Ben is overweight, Beverly is known as a slut, and Mike is an African American homeschooled kid who lives on his grandfathers farm, so he is bullied for being an 'outsider.'I like the remake much better because I feel as if the actors portrayed their characters better. There are a lot of main things that weren't included, but it is still my favorite movie. I loved the plot and the signs of friendship that were shown throughout the movie. I also loved the friendship the actors had outside the movie. This movie is my favorite and I would definitely watch it every day if I could.

Who or what is your favorite movie monster?

My favorite movie monster is probably Pennywise, aka the monster in the movie 'IT.' He takes the form of a killer clown, but you see him as what you fear the most. The seven main characters all see him as their greatest fears. Bill sees him as his younger brother, afraid that he will never find him. Eddie sees him as a leper because his mother has made him afraid of sickness. Stan sees him as the face of a creepy painting in his father's office that he doesn't like. Richie claims his biggest fear is clowns, but it really is being forgotten, so he sees Pennywise as his dead body. Beverly's biggest fear is getting her period, because her father is sexual towards her, and she fears he would see her as a true woman and rape her so he does certain things to make her see blood, for example, her father touched her hair so she cut it off and washed it down the sink. Later in the movie, she hears something whispering her name and as she goes to look down the sink, the hair erupts from the sink, covering her bathroom in blood. Ben's biggest fear is the history of Derry, Maine so he sees certain historical characters he has read about. When he was little, Mike and his parents worked in a factory that burned down while they were inside. His parents were locked in and melted because it was so hot. He sees Pennywise as the burned victims of the warehouse. If I were to see Pennywise, he would probably appear as bees because that's my biggest fear. I think his 'powers' or whatever you call them are interesting.
