Warner Bros. "IT" Remake

Yes, it's true. Warner Bros. have announced their plans to make another film based on "IT," a famous novel by Stephen King. During the late 80's, a straight-to-t.v. movie based on the book was released.
It is now considered to be one of the scariest t.v. movies ever made. The question is this: is it time for this story to be told on the big screen?

To fleash out the characters, could a 2-2 1/2 hour version could do the job; perhaps depending on the script. Still the original adaption from the 80s will be my favorite.; ▶ Reply to This

Tekken 6.

I got it after not having played tekken games in a long while and that game is really effing tekken. I imagine if you're really into tekken you'll enjoy this game, if your not I'd still probably suggest you get tekken tag tournament first. The ga...
