This movie is going to either be a top 10 (if done right) or complete shit. There's just no middle ground with Stephen King adaptations.
Look at the shining. The movie is probably better than the book and that's due to Kubrick and Nicholson. Then you have shit like Dreamcatcher and Sleeepwalkers. Terrible.
The IT miniseries was ok for early 90's, (as was The Stand) but release that crap today and it'll be torn apart. With the technology we have these days there's no middle ground for these movies. All or nothing and from what I've seen this is going to be ****ing wonderful.
