So do I but I ended up there anyway. I believe it was because I liked Evil Dead (2013) over the old ones.

Saw it in theatres. Was really enjoying it until they botched the prom scene. They botched it hard, and that's the moment that makes Carrie!
Are we talking about the same film? I was asking about the IT remake. :P :P
My bad, did not notice "it" there, I was talking of the Carrie remake, lol.

That said, yes, I love the It film, far better than the made-for-tv miniseries, though it lacked the fun and pizazz of Curry, it went for the far more faithful to the book version.

I even detest that it gets called a remake since it wasn't remaking the mini-series, it adapted from the book (the kids half).

My second favorite movie from this year so far. Favorite horror movie in many years too.

Since I'm vague one which they were trying to adapt for Carrie (2013), I lazily refer to a remake :P

I dig the shit out of Carrie. I started to watch the remake but turned it off about 20 minutes in. I need to try and watch the whole thing, but didn't like what I saw.

I don't mind the remake label on such things because I highly doubt they would have invested in the movie if not for the mini-series having an enduring following.

I'm pretty sure the investment is more from the success of the Lord of the Rings and Hobbit movies (which I think WB produced It and Hobbit, i'll have to double check), so they felt more confident in tackling that mammoth fan favorite book.

I know they keep trying to tackle The Stand, but since Ben Affleck left from producing it, I don't know where it....*puts on sunglasses*...stands.

Oh, right, New Line did It (so in turn, same producers of LOTR, not The Hobbit).

At best, the only influence I think the mini-series had was them going "why did they make this for TV? The book is very R-rated, x-rated in some bits."

The nod to Curry was cool in the new one though, as one of the many clown dolls during Ritchie's experience in the house.

When is it on iTunes?
April, or May. But we are releasing two singles before the record comes out. Gonna do a video for the third single, which will be released the same day the full record comes out. I finally ditched the other band because of their laziness. I have fun with my bands, but ya gotta run it like a business and take it seriously.
Look forward to buying a copy.
