In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik (@Rood) was joined by comedian Ali Woods to look back at the best and worst moments of a rollercoaster season with the annual United Hour Awards.
Has Ten Hag been sacked yet? We're not sure and we hope not, but it's looking more likely as the days pass.
Who should replace him and why is it taking so long to make a decision?
Trailer should be with us soon...
Really looking forward to this.Having read the book was disappointed by the TV version. A lot was left out.
Cant wait for this, but it is going to have to be something special to get even close to the original.
Tim Curry has Pennywise was scary.
i downloaded the movie I.T. (2016) thinking it was this 
it was some Pierce Brosman crap.

I actually like Pierce, will check it out.i downloaded the movie I.T. (2016) thinking it was this

Well the trailer scared me already. Fecking hate clowns.
I don't remember all that supernatural shit on the original.
There was lots in the original - werewolves, giant spider and a talking moon
Wow. This looks really good!
Looks quite weak as horrors go judging by the trailer.
I thought it looked daft as feck from the trailer.
Also my thoughts.
yes, I will be looking forward to it. But will remain sceptical
Looks like the opening is a shot for shot remake which might be dodgy
I don't like it. There's a warmth to the original due to its budget and constraints and this looks like it's full of jumpscares.
The fecking plague of modern horror.

Remaking It would be similar to remaking Jaws. Just won't be the same, no matter how good
Looks promising from the trailer, Pennywise looks better than I thought he would, thought the still pic of him was a bit disappointing but looks scarier in the trailer.
Trailer looks really good actually. The original will take some beating but i'm not going to think about that when I watch this new one.
I'm a lot more excited then i thought i would be. But i'm still ten times more excited for the dark tower.
I think it looks great, I can't wait.
The trailer makes it look like an expensive remaster of the original film, employing the full repertoire of modern horror techniques (cliches). I feel the original, for all it's flaws, works partly because of that bleak, eerie tv movie aesthetic, it's like a nightmare vision of the Wonder Years.
Isn't it hard to make a horror without clichés though? Jump scares for example, I can't think of a horror movie without them.
Can everyone stop saying the original was a 'film'...it wasn't.
The dubious merits of incessant remakes is a pertinent issue, but this is at least something with a vaguely plausible reason to exist. Cutting the two stories in half being the main one.
Think this looks decent myself. But you can never tell from trailers really.

Oh, come on now. King's own adaptation of The Shining was fantastic!
The originally filmed version doesn't rely on them if I remember correctly but It's more the strobing Jacob's Ladder effect that Saw ran into the ground, that Guillermo Latin gothic design that is so ubiquitous and the overall James Wan aesthetic that make it feel very familiar - from the trailer at least. It looks fine but like everything else. Maybe part of the problem is that the 90's film still has a unique feel to it.
Fair point , 2 feature length episode of a 2 part mini series.
I did read that they were doing the same with this one.
Is this going to be over 3 hours long then in the cinemas?
It looks great, and it's not a remake, it is straight book adaptation, in the first movie, only good thing was Tim Curry, so it won't be very hard to surpass it. First movie had tons of stuff left out that was in the book also, I only remember it fondly because I watched it at young age and it stuck with me, but quality of movie itself is pretty bad.
Can't wait for this!

Wasn't too bothered about this but after watching the trailer I'm officially aboard the hype train. The child actors look like they did a good job.
The " 2:16 when you ....... " comments on the trailer (YouTube) are great.
The book was really good apart from that one bit at the end which wouldn't ever be included in a movie and was just bizarre.
I'm talking about when the 11 year old losers take it in turn to have sex with Beverley for absolutely no reason. It was just the dirty old man bit of King's imagination being added in
