The Clown Prince of Crime
Super Freak
I'll say this, the original kids looked more memorable.
These new kids might be better actors, but they all look the same to me

What scene? I've seen the movie like once.
Spoiler:After the children defeat IT, they become lost in the sewers and start to lose the somewhat "magical" bond they shared. Beverly makes the decision to have sex - for real, I know it sounds crazy - with each of the boys in turn. As it's written it serves to empower Bev and solidify the group but it's one of those writer-y ideas that is super left field and creepy on the page, but you get it. It would never be anything but horrifying on film.
Though I do wonder if ***anawa left because of that scene or the gay stuff between Patrick and Henry. I only read that it was over sexual content.
It's from the book.

What the ****... Pedo much Mr. King?
Kinda reminds me of Peter Benchley having Hooper **** Brody's wife in Jaws... like what was the value in that?
Spoiler:Yeah, he got a lot of flack for it. But honestly the point of it is very apparent in the book. It's just a super weird way to get it across. There's a lot about sexuality in the book - he even makes particular note of the way kids refer to sex as doing "IT" - and it does make sense if you can get past the "holy**** this IS going where it looks like it's going" feeling (and many understandably can't). At least, it makes sense insomuch as you can see what he meant to do with it. I've read the book multiple times and just recently listened to the audiobook. I still really don't like that part, but I get it.

I never read Jaws but that's kind of hilarious out of context.
I didn't either, just some information I found out there. Apparently critics of Benchley say that he sticks in meaningless sex sub plots in all his novels.
I believe it. I mean, you can skip entire chapters of Moby **** because Melville was paid by the page as I understand it. We like to elevate the written word but really authors are just hungry weirdos like the rest of us.
