Mate, stream of consciousness is taught to middle schoolers. Its only pretentious if that third word catches you off guard.
McZealot:
I was thinking more about the film this morning and it just gets better. I didn't initially make the connection that those charred hands from the furnace that terrorize the black dude (forgot his name) are the hands of his parents reaching through the door when his house burned down. Also the scene where Henry insults Bev across the river and she just screams at him like a maniac and hurls a rock is hilarious

Interesting point. Didn't even realize this.
Alternat¡ve:
Great flick but there were a lot of hokey scenes scattered throughout. The rock throwing scene was just dumb and looked like something out a Lifetime movie. Same with all the shots that stabilized on Penny Wise's face.
