Just found out they are remaking this movie. I was really young when I watched it on TV and don't remember much about the movie. I will have to read the book before this new movie comes out. They are saying it will have an R rating.
This movie was one of the reasons why I am still afraid of clowns to this day.

This is one of those movies that NEED remade, since the first one was made for television. They do need to bring Tim Curry back in to be Pennywise, though.

Definitely needed to be remade.
I remember watching it when I was younger being terrified, but I read the book this summer and then watched the movie only to be disappointed.
I think they can turn this into a very good movie imo.

What a great book. I actually read it earlier this year. Having never watched the movie, I went to youtube and watched some of the footage. Some of it seemed good, some of it seemed bad. A remake would be good, but again, with the case of most book-to-movie adaptions, I would be concerned that something would be lost in translation.

I would like to see them change it up a little bit and make Pennywise the bad guy the whole time instead of him just being a representation of the evil demon. Obviously it wouldn't be true to the book but I think the movie would make more money. I can remember the first time I watched the original and being confused at the end when they actually fought the demon because I hadn't read the book. It made for a weak ending for me.
