Yet he never, ever talks about this role in any interviews. That's strange. People have bored him to death by talking about Rocky Horror Picture Show, but, to date, I think there's only one magazine interview before the mini series was released.
Don't know if you know this, but a lot of British actors can have a American accent. For and example, Tom Holland Aka New Spider-Man, he sound America, but he's not.
Just once, I want to see someone encounter Penny wise or Freddy Kruger and instead of getting petrified, just stand there and say, "you're a real dick, you know that?" Then walk away unphased. Seeing their reaction after that would be interesting
Maybe not Freddy as usually he doesn't dick around as much(still dicks around a lot), but Pennywise is almost never scary because he spends practically all of his time dicking around
I don't think Freddy nor Pennywise are dicks. They're just being their funny selves as they're about to do some killing. Don't be upset because they are hilarious. Especially Freddy
1990: "Beep Beep Richie" FUNNY 2017: "Beep Beep Richie" SCARY Its the same words but that just proves how scary the new IT movie is update: 2017 is funny too idk what i was talking about 💀
RapidWoWPrime yeah but I still love it. What they were aiming for in the original mini series was having Pennywise make mockery out of them and try to “torture” the characters and traumatize them even. The newer It is more aimed towards a teen horror movie yet they still incorporated funny moments like the old one
"Excuse me sir! Do you have an Albert in a Can? You do? We'll you better let the poor guy out!" I don't even know how I died of laughter when it doesn't even make any sence. XD
What makes these scenes scary is the display of power. Blood is everywhere, balloons bursting...and no one notices. Pennywise laughs at the top of its lungs. No one notices. Derry is its domain. What can these fools do to the likes of it? Yeah, it's acting goofy, but that is to hide its growing fear. These humans are getting so close. They won't back down. And they hurt it so badly thirty years ago. For the first time in eons, it is scared.
tim Curry as Pennywise was both playfully silly and horrifying at the same time. this is one of the roles that shows why curry is one of the best actors ever.
'IT' has a scary reputation because Tim Curry made such a strong impression on a whole generation of kids when they were at a very impressionable age: the movie that surrounds him is not that well-directed, shot, scripted or performed but he made a tremendous impact and lasted as an enduring archetype of the evil clown.
Yeah, it was a tv miniseries. So a lot of people watched it back in 1990. And it was replayed on television for a number of years after, and in video stores.
It was her dad. Her dad always worried about her a lot. Mrs. Kersh is a mixture between the witch of Hansel and Gretel (which her dad used to read to her and her father) Both are abusive to children
RicFlair69 You try acting like you don't see or feel anything when a balloon full of fake blood pops in front of you. If they had pulled that off, those extras should have got into acting.
southlondon86 There's not a proper way to do it. It started the clown thing, followed by other horror movies. Coulrophobia is a legitimate fear, however. Curry himself was afraid of clowns.
This film used to scare the shit out of me as a kid. One of my faves now as ive grown up. Love the mix of comedy and horror. Cant wait to see the remake this friday :)
Don't know how many times I've seen this, but it's still a great laugh; especially the Head in the Fridge scene. Tim Curry is brilliant as Pennywise! Beep-Beep, Ritchie!!!
The guy of the head in the fridge is acting like that one man at the party who’s hyper-social after having a few drinks, it was the funniest part in my eyes 🤣
redbelly4 I wouldve bought one if I saw this sooner! They started selling the entire costume with a mask this month but non of them fit because I am too tall!
IT is the scariest book that I've ever read (and the strangest) which has become my second most favorite book of all the books I've read, but I shamefully confirm that this movie is sillier than scary, they added the most gory parts out and the less gory parts they made them in silly and cheap ways and the only thing that you learn about Pennywise is that it's a transforming clown which eats children and in the book everything about IT is explained. People who ask what's so scary about IT, I suggest to read the book if you like horror genre and an adult, it's worthwhile than this silly movie.
Nathan Beer I couldn't agree more ! Also the book was so more detailed of course , in just one movie you can never really capture the magic of the whole book I think. I'm very curious about the new version coming in 2017. I really hope they stay a bit more true to the book this time, and don't make it "child friendly" like the original version. I mean, the book is not supposed to be for kids, nor should the movie be I think.
UnlimitedEra Me to!! as a kid i was scared to take showers and wash my hands it would take me 30 minutes to an hour to decide if I would take a shower at night around 7:30 pm I was afraid that Pennywise would grab me and pull me down the drain or that blood would come out of the shower head. also from the beginning of the old it movie that creepy intro music scared me too...
You are both correct. She was Martha Kent in the series Smallville, and in Superman 3 (1983), she appeared as Lana Lang at Clark's (Christopher Reeve) high school reunion.
You can tell Tim Curry had the time of his life with this
Lol it was scary as a kid and now it's hilarious
Daniel Ryan he actually hated it.
Daniel Ryan I believe he had Coulrophobia. He didn't wanted to see his make-up in the mirror.
Daniel Ryan TRUH!!
Yet he never, ever talks about this role in any interviews. That's strange. People have bored him to death by talking about Rocky Horror Picture Show, but, to date, I think there's only one magazine interview before the mini series was released.
best line from the whole movie "kiss me fat boy" and the classic "they all float down here".
No..the best line is "I'm every nightmare you've ever had, I am your worst dream come true, I'm EVERYTHING you EVER were afraid of"! So bad-ass..
Cat Aguirre yes pennywise was badass!
Elise Fincher Kiss me Pretty Girl
Kiss me fat boy 🤣😂😂🤣🤣😂😂🤣🤣🤣🤣 and when he stutters making fun of bill lmao .
laughed so hard with that scene
I think the people in the library are the best actors ever because they had to keep a straight face while Tim currys yelling and cracking jokes
Griffin Wentz id die on set ngl 😂 that shit will be funny asf
Its a ilusion
And they had to not pay attention to the balloons, and not do anything when the balloons popped. I would like to see them as reactors
@@meiosom7644 He meant when they were filming.
Griffin Wentz yea true
I must say, given the fact that Tim curry is British, this has got to be the best American accent he's ever done.
TheNw1218 Watch a clip of Gabriel Knight: Sins of the Father's. Old point and click adventure game. Gabriel Knight is voiced by Tim Curry.
TheNw1218 His British accent Can be heard when he says "I'm Pennywise the dancing Clown."
xXApple HeadXx Not really, because in UK, we don't pronounce dancing like that, we pronounce it 'darncing' or 'duncing'
FilmFan not all of us do I say dancing, it depends what part of the uk your from 😄
Don't know if you know this, but a lot of British actors can have a American accent.
For and example, Tom Holland Aka New Spider-Man, he sound America, but he's not.
"Wheezy, how's your sex life? What's your sex life?" I died at that part in the movie.
Demonic Cupcake and a young Tommy wiseau found his inspiration.
Holy crap you're right
He said "Weezy"
I didn't know that Eddie's still a virgin says Richie in that cave scene
Hahaha what a story Lightspeeds.
I actually find him more funny than scary.
kiss me fat boy!!! 😂👌
Wow, you must be really tough?
me too
Same here, not even scary
doge the cool dog yes, I agree he was funny in this scene but not all. in some he's super scart
“What’s your sex life” and “kiss me fat boy”
Best lines.

The book is 100x better but Tim is a great actor and portrayed Pennywise in a perfect manner.
I don't think Freddy nor Pennywise are dicks. They're just being their funny selves as they're about to do some killing. Don't be upset because they are hilarious. Especially Freddy
You do know both of those are fictional characters, right?
Yes
Pennywise is the biggest troll on earth😂
2:17 Pennywise really out here ending the Loser Club’s careers.
PennyWise the trolling clown. Been trolling since.....well all your life! XD

feel like they didnt even try to make the original scary

Which is the REAL definition of clown.
And exactly WHY people don't like em.
@@minecraftchenal9029 yes
1990 IT:Funny and a little bit scary
2017 IT:Creepy and scary
Vernard Miguel 2017 version was also funny af with Richie
Vernard Miguel 2017: Roast master.
Wait till the second half. The second half of the original had a lot more trolling. I imagine it the second half of the remake gonna be hilarious.
1990:Funny and a little bit scary
2017: funny and not scary at all I see no difference there just good acting
What about the dancing part?
"Excuse me sir!
Do you have an Albert in a Can?
You do? We'll you better let the poor guy out!"
I don't even know how I died of laughter when it doesn't even make any sence. XD
I think it's the idea of a god level creature saying such an unfunny joke while trying to SCARE someone away from it, just make the joke hilarious.
MasterrangerABR ?
jamesi34 IT's not trying to be funny It's trying to be scary while it's telling the joke.
Pennywise said "Do you have Prince Albert in a can?" and Prince Albert is chewing tobacco often put in cans. It's still pretty funny
Prince Albert was a brand of tobacco and was sold in cans...If y'all didn't know
Imagine if the man actually kissed Pennywise
Lol, he did thinking it was Beverly 😂
No...Mayonnaise is not an Instrument...
Ur name is so funny xD

That joke worked better in the '50s when more men smoked pipes. Nobody knows about Prince Albert tobacco anymore.
Chapter 2 Better Have The Prince Albert In A Can Scene.
tim Curry as Pennywise was both playfully silly and horrifying at the same time. this is one of the roles that shows why curry is one of the best actors ever.
I honestly would probobly laugh my way through IT
wow bro - savage
'Kiss me fat boy' omg I died hahaha
Lollypopz when I watched the movies years ago I thought he said "kiss me bad boy"
So did he lol
kiss me fat boiiiiiiiii XDDDDDDDDDD
I honestly can't find Pennywise scary at all. I think he's hilarious!
The terror on the faces of the actors is what made it real.
Curry's performance was perfect.
'IT' has a scary reputation because Tim Curry made such a strong impression on a whole generation of kids when they were at a very impressionable age: the movie that surrounds him is not that well-directed, shot, scripted or performed but he made a tremendous impact and lasted as an enduring archetype of the evil clown.
Yeah, it was a tv miniseries. So a lot of people watched it back in 1990. And it was replayed on television for a number of years after, and in video stores.
They better find someone really talented to take over Tim Curry's role in the remake because Tim Curry pulled this off perfectly.
Bayan1905 Agreed
Bayan1905 It's going to be an adaptation from the novel. It won't be as goofy as the mini-series.
Bayan1905 hello! what's your opinion on the new actor? :>
and so did bill scårsgard😃
Bill Skarsgård did well!
Why did that old rotten woman sound like Beverly's dad
It was her dad. Her dad always worried about her a lot. Mrs. Kersh is a mixture between the witch of Hansel and Gretel (which her dad used to read to her and her father) Both are abusive to children

No one sees the balloons and yet they all blink when they pop...
the blinking is part of the hallucination

THEY ALL FLOAT!

YOU'LL FLOAT TOO!
RicFlair69 You try acting like you don't see or feel anything when a balloon full of fake blood pops in front of you. If they had pulled that off, those extras should have got into acting.
the fear of clowns is overplayed. IT never really scared me.
Satoshi Edogawa It's never been done properly that's why.
southlondon86 There's not a proper way to do it. It started the clown thing, followed by other horror movies.
Coulrophobia is a legitimate fear, however. Curry himself was afraid of clowns.
Me neither. I think fear of clown is just an American thing. Clowns is my country are loved by kids. I even had clowns for my 3rd birthday.
Haylee Pond I cant find a movie that scares me, but this clown gives me the fucking creeps man
I never understood how anyone who could be afraid of a clown. At least not normal ones.
