One of those movies that they show all of the scary scenes as trailers/previews for six months before the movie is released - dark, deep voice, "when the kid watching his paper boat float down the gutter, you won't know what to expect when it reaches the drain. watch it!"

I've seen all I needed to see.

Usually, the hype is directly proportional to the disappointment...

I hope it's better than the first version from 1990, staring "John boy Walton". https://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/stephen_kings_it1990 The acting was the scariest thing in that version.

Talk about bragging rights. Well if you were alive to brag that is.

In a country where just about anything that crawls can kill you. Nice!

Two in a row... I'm on a roll!

The sergeant also summed up the entire debacle with a moral for the story: “Don’t drink and sell cars.”

I bet she needed an air freshener because of that really smelly bucket of gasoline in her back seat.

 

Here, a connection between me and @Hypatia's Protege . I grew up in the shadows of St. John's University's (Collegeville, MN) stained glass windows. They played their season-opening football game against St. Scholastica (Duluth, MN) (HPs claimed location). Even with 4th and 5th string players on the field, St. John's just kept scoring.
The Johnnies beat the Saints, 98 - 0.

https://www.sbnation.com/college-football/2017/9/3/16249970/st-johns-st-scholastica-score-2017-98-0

Saint John's scored on its third play from scrimmage. Then, after forcing the Saints' offense to a three-and-out, the Johnnies recovered a mishandled snap on a punt attempt and turned it into a touchdown two plays later. A little more than a minute later, they returned an interception for a touchdown.

Less than six minutes into the game, and after just five offensive plays by St John's, they were up, 21-0.​

This weekend, the poor Saints are going into the game with a surprisingly positive attitude. I wish them well.

Note, St. John's. Has the best Division III record of all time. Last year, they beat St. Scholastica 49-7.

Gophert elimination?

Yes, using gloves for that is more than weird...

There are a whole series of these. Blue neoprene gloves and shaking hands.
