My dad is a huge Stephen King fan, he has more Stephen King books than I have books in total - and that is saying something! Naturally, he shared his Stephen King obsession with his daughter! I have been a fan since a very young age. I remember watching The Shining remake with my dad in first grade when it aired on TV.
I was very excited to see this new IT. I even rewatched the original miniseries in preparation. Which may have been a mistake. The first time I went to see the new film, I hated IT. I think it was because I kept comparing it to the original, which has been one of my favorite Stephen King adaptations since I was a kid.
But the second time I went to see IT, I tried to be more open minded. And that time I loved IT! I have seen IT a total of three time so far, and I can't wait for IT to come out so I can watch IT again!
