One thing I wish we got in the it movies was what happened in between the 27 years.. I would have loved to see different shots of there lives, plus then they could have used the child actors more (without the horrible cgi). I would have loved to see:
Stanley meeting Patty and them getting married right out of college. His PTSD from Pennywise/deadlights. (He remembered the fear/ It right away. he had to have remembered some things over the years)
Bill writing his first book and the struggles that come with that. Him meeting and marring Audra. (I actually liked what they showed for Bill but I want more)
Richie and Beverly’s rise to fame.
Richie’s struggles with his sexuality and the trails of being famous. His struggles with depression, drugs and alcohol. His relationship with Steve and Sandy!!!
Beverly living with her aunt and her struggles with men. Plus her nightmares from the dead lights. HER FRIENDSHIP WITH KAY!!!!!!
Eddie living with his mom, going back to listening to her, plus him meeting Myra. Eddie wanted more from life but being stuck because he’s scared.
Ben’s weight loss (or just becoming more comfortable in his skin)his struggles with alcohol and fame from being a successful architect. (I don’t like how they introduced him in the newer film. Don’t get me wrong I love sweet, nice Ben but it just felt like they remembered last minute to film him)
Mike struggling with the memories of what happened to them and having to stay behind. Him going to school to become a librarian after his grandfather dies and can’t run the farm anymore.
Like I feel like we missed out on their lives a little. (I loved it chapter two I just wanted more)
I miss that little period of time in the fandom where people were bringing back Kay McCall from the book because she is just a prime Bev girlfriend. I understand why she's been cut from every adaptation, but I loved her so much. I miss her.
It is time to reveal my darkest secret. I have never read the It book. I've listened to parts of it on audio and as someone who reads a lot, i just haven't gotten to it yet. IM SORRY I AM ASHAMED.
Anyways, I do know some about Kay McCall (mainly from fanon) and she and Bev are good together. There was a real big "Lesbian Bev" spout after the 2017 movie release and she was the most commonly shipped with Bev, if i remember correctly. I wish I could see more of the pairing.
Also there is something to be said about Kay and Bill being both writers. One's a feminist writer and the other's a horror, but still.
I don’t condemn the movie for not having time for Kay McCall but I’m always sad when she’s not there because Beverly having an eccentric bisexual bestie who helps her escape her abusive marriage & is a little in love with her is just such a sad thing for movie only fans to miss out on
꒰ ࿁ ˙ ˖ ໑ happy holiday season! i had a ton of different holiday centered fic ideas for some of my favorite characters, and i decided that it would be fun if YOU guys had the chance to choose what you wanted me to write about ࿁ ˙ ˖ ໑ ꒱
You guys remember when we realized Johnny does that weird thing where he closes the car door with his hips in 1x09 while he and Daniel are hanging out? Well. I was watching the Equalizer and. I think that might just be how William Zabka closes car doors. These were over 30 years apart. Why is he like this
i’m going to start making mood boards on random stuff for people bc i’ve got nothing better to do, also i can just give you random advice if you need it or just want to talk, and cute outfits if you tell me themes for them x💋💋
if you want to post anything that i make please please credit me 🙏🙏
I was unable to find an image of Kay McCall but if anyone has one that they don't mind me using please let me know. Just know that she's there is spirit.
Also, in trying to keep this as clear as possible I've decided not to do all the platonic lines between characters, just know that all of these characters are friends. If there is a special friendship that you would like me to highlight please let me know and I'll put in a blue line.
I've also added yellow lines to represent marriage. And if you have a different interpretation or would like to add a relationship, please let me know.
