Looks like every other kids fantasy from the last 20 years. Oprah looks ridiculous. Looks awful.

How can you say this? Have you seen the film? You're making a harsh judgment based off of a teaser trailer? At least wait to see the movie before you say they ruined anything...

Count me interested. I had no idea this was being made, and I loved the book when I was about 30 years younger.

Alright... gotta read the book and figure out what the hell is going on again. I just remember something about a character named IT... and the basketball bouncing in unison scene.

I remember enjoying this book as a kid but I don't remember it at all. My son is reading the third book in the series now so I'll have to show this to him and ask him what he thinks.
