The latest episode of Screen Rant's Pitch Meeting series is revisiting its analysis of It and why one element of Stephen King's book is so wrong.
Summary As the Halloween season continues, the latest episode of Screen Rant's own Pitch Meeting series is looking back on its analysis of IT. The 2017 movie marked the second major adaptation of Stephen King's iconic 1986 novel revolving around a group of misfit teens and their later adult years as they find themselves haunted by the eponymous shapeshifting entity typically taking on the form of Pennywise the Dancing Clown.
With over five years gone since the movie first hit theaters, the latest episode of Screen Rant's Pitch Meeting series is looking back at 2017's IT. As seen at the top of this article, the original video highlighted one of the biggest issues of the movie was its side-stepping of many of the book's elements resulting in poorly explained sequences.
Why 2017's IT Is Still The Best Adaptation While Tim Curry's miniseries remains one of the more beloved of King adaptations for the actor's performance as Pennywise, 2017's IT has largely proven to be the better translation of the novel.
The movie's scares and effective casting also largely allowed audiences to embrace some of the changes made from King's novel, ranging from smaller elements like the childhood years being in the '80s instead of the '50s to larger things like the removal of the aforementioned orgy scene. Already considered a controversial sequence when the novel was released, more modern audiences would have been appalled by seeing it adapted.
Though the first IT took some creative liberties with King's work, Chapter Two sought to bring some of the cut elements back from the novel, including the ancient turtle god Maturin and the Ritual of Chüd the group perform to try and defeat Pennywise.
