155The topic of childbirth is revealed further!
The scene in the supermarket is just bombastic. In her finale, the tension and fear are at their maximum, which makes me want to scream too)
The whole story of the military made me remember the universal "Dead space") ✌️
I just don't quite understand this line in the series.
Here you can read more about this character in the novels "Shining" and "Doctor Sleep".
And the guy who was watching the military - I saw him on a Long walk just the day before yesterday, migrated from one King project to another)))
Children's problems in the prequel: Mom is sent to a mental hospital after her father is hacked to pieces at a cannery. They beat you at home so that it's easier to hitch a ride and try to go anywhere with strangers.
Pennywise had plenty to eat.
The second series - Firstly, they introduced and revealed a lot of interesting lines, and secondly, it's still awesome)
The line of birth continues, but it's not as nasty as the first one. Creepy "mom," and the topic raised is even scarier. I can't imagine how poor Ronnie feels about her mother's death.
And Lilly? Damn, I hate backrooms, they're not scary in themselves, but they're still depressing. Also those creepy people in the background))
I also wonder why people react so strangely to the major's wife. Because of the color of your skin? But she's not the only black woman in town. And the strange behavior when the boy was beaten...
And my respects to the installers, the transition from Dick Halloran to puree...))
Ronnie's family lives in a black neighborhood, and no one will look at them askance, they seem to be "in their place." And the major's wife lives like a white woman — that's what makes the locals uncomfortable. They say she has to stand at the cash register and serve burgers, but she buys in antique shops.
As for the boys, no one in Derry cares about the kids. And then there's the black one who tries to raise other people's children, as well as white boys. In the same place, the looks immediately read "Go to your neighborhood and educate, but do not interfere with our children."
And by separating the fighting boys, you can inadvertently interfere with justice. Maybe he offended the girl. You protect such a person, and then a maniac rapist will grow out of him.
And secondly, by the time of the events shown, racial segregation in schools has already been abolished. Moreover, Maine is a northern state.
In my opinion, what is shown in the series does not cause any questions yet.
And the abolition of segregation might not have reached small towns yet. But one school explains everything.
And how do you know that one town? Or was it mentioned somewhere?
In such a turbulent time, Pennywise has a feast~
The idea of a confrontation between a military man who cannot feel fear and a creature that feeds on him is interesting. But we have a spoiler - it will be back in 27 years~
And I don't think the comments of those who say that Lily betrayed me are fair. No. she has already said that she is innocent, and the confession that was in real life is a direct ticket to a fool. And in fact, Ronnie wanted Lily to be sick instead of her father. But it was real, but it wouldn't have changed anything, and she was a fool anyway... loose-loose situation here ☹️
The supermarket scene is of course perfectly staged, I can't even believe it's a TV series!)
For me, the second episode wasn't very interesting, even a little boring. Thanks to the explanations, including from the comments of Maishous, something became clearer.
And so I watched the season at once, and so you can stop watching the series.
I'm worried about Lilly, who's been sent to Juniper Hill. Let's see what happens there...
I really miss the "witty" guy who thinks that women's breasts are sharp (cones 🤣I still laugh from this😂) and his sister Suzy 😭, I hope they come back 🥹
Well, the ending, the old Ford, most likely, the Thompsons (who, by the way, were always cleaning up, unlike the ancient PM), money and skeletons (obviously people with low social responsibility), is a very entertaining cliff.
Aah, there are also guys from indigenous peoples and a thrift store saleswoman, well, obviously they were shown for a reason)
Apparently this old car is one of the things that surround it..
I don't know, maybe someone can explain.
It seems to me that this is, so to speak, one of the steps on the way to finding that very weapon, so here I agree with @Auryn. And again, let's not forget about the young Indian motorcycle club, in any case, they are aware or somehow connected.
P.S. As a result, it turns out that these are the bones of an ancient shaman who imprisoned the spirit of a boogeyman or even a pet cemetery.
And I just fell in love with the opening of the series. 🎈
But the first were the military, desegregation took place there by the early 50s.
The Indians defended their rights back in 1924.
The ban on mixed marriages was lifted in 1967. Moreover, both could have white skin, but one of the betrothed had an ancestor with black skin. And the insanity began. There was a film on this topic.
Naturally, the court's decision did not change people's minds and thoughts overnight, despite the fact that fans of white pillowcases exist to this day.
+There is also a separate attitude towards Asians.
For lack of a better life, people are chasing the American dream across distances, seas and oceans. But as a result, they find endless amounts of hatred and malice, because they differ in appearance. (*regarding the location of the action ) Those who are looking for negatives and minuses will find and see only them. Those who are looking for something good will see both the bad and the good, but this good will have some value) 🫶
Everything is shown perfectly in the series.
All the world,
After all, those kids were really eaten (it's a pity. But they brought a new batch of interesting ones. All very nice kids, it's even a pity that they don't stay in this series. I really like the way kids play. I know how hard it is to shoot with children, so honor and praise the creator and the actors, smart guys!
Can you tell me, the black man who threw up - does he somehow feel "it" or maybe he encountered it 27 years ago?
The scene in the footage was very funny, but most importantly, I thought it was another manifestation of a Clown when I saw the yellow light in the lenses. It would be fun if she refused to be the grandmother from part 2 of the original.
We are waiting further)
The guy who threw up, Holoran. He meets as an adult in the novel Shining. He has abilities that he calls radiance, for example, he can sense that some kind of trouble is approaching, he can talk telepathically with people who also possess radiance. In the novel Radiance, he was just communicating telepathically with a boy named Danny, who was staying with his parents at the Overlook Hotel for the winter.
It's hard for me to remember, but I've read many of King's works.
I wonder what the military found along with the car and skeletons in the cabin during excavations.
The director is a fan of screwing up the topic of childbirth. The theme of Roni's mom's death during childbirth was cool and terrible, and the episode in the supermarket with Lily and cucumbers looked very creepy.
When will the moment come when the children will get together and cope with all this ?
I'm waiting for Bill Skarsgard to appear.
Of course, you'll see enough of this (the 2nd episode in a row with the birth of a robot), then the imprint for life.
By the way, I noticed that this is some kind of new thing in horror childbirth. I've never seen this before. And it really works the same way.
P.S. If they invite me, as a father, to the birth, I will definitely pass 😬
And all these toothy vaginas and tentacles cause nothing but laughter.
Overall, it's not bad so far. I am glad that the atmosphere is still closer to the first chapter, and not to the second, where Muschetti crossed the coast and plunged headlong into silly humor. There's still more balance and horror here.
And it's always nice to see Peter Outerbridge, I've liked him since the sixth Saw.
We remembered the robbers from the 20s and 30s from the novel, if I remember correctly)
Well, you have to understand that the clown is still processing everyone there, and such topics come up even more thickly and vividly - remember how the hooligans swept away the gay man in the book. Plus, like, the sixties is not the best time to be black in the United States.
As for me, the "accents" on African Americans are too blunt and direct, which is already disgusting. I understand that the time was like that, but segregation was abolished or whatever, it doesn't matter. I would like to list all the eye-catching moments, but I became very lazy, because these are not 1 or 2 moments per episode.
Children. They seem to be trying, playing, but I just can't get into it, and that's it. Either they don't have the caste, or they're too polished. At that moment, a neuron appeared on the boy who was eating white at the locker. It was all very computer-generated. For the second episode, I have a feeling of artifice and scenery.
Of course, only 2 episodes have passed and we need to look further. But for now, I want a feast. Well, they knocked out the characters in the first episode, let's move on, otherwise we relaxed.
The episode at the supermarket is also creepy, I'm really sorry for Lily. I hope that by some miracle she will be able to get out of the clinic. It's the same with Ronnie's father, I hope he doesn't get hurt. Although I think that unfortunately everything will end sadly for him, and he will not leave the police alive.
The branch with the military base is not very clear yet (and not particularly interesting, for that matter). To use It as a weapon against the USSR? Well, that's a bit of a funny and cringe-worthy story.
Actually, it's not scary at all, just disgusting, but something holds me back and forces me to watch. Some kind of strange interest
Probably a Derry phenomenon)
for fans of very strange things
"Uncle Vanya" needs to be taken note of :)
Another emotional chewing gum for children of all genders and ages.
I really like Hanlon's character.
Scarecrows are still rather disgusting (in terms of body horror), but they are much more interesting than a flying baby.
