I do like the film (or was it a mini series?) of It, but then I've not read the book in that case.Nose_in_a_bookhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07154323912093068113noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6275165298547340568.post-88873327346233843792012-04-28T22:23:08.127+01:002012-04-28T22:23:08.127+01:00I like the 70's Carrie so much it borders on r...I like the 70's Carrie so much it borders on ridiculous. When I see it now, it seems so campy and out of place. I still love the book immensely though.Jennhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10826716134008160506noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6275165298547340568.post-51383062348349689812012-04-25T22:12:33.747+01:002012-04-25T22:12:33.747+01:00Guys...

Although I WOULD say that Sissy Spacek was a pretty good Carrie cause she's way creepy.<br /><br />Although, they're both wrong as Carrie cause she uses food as a defence mechanism/her mum uses it as a subtle controlling thing, so, yeah. CARRIE SHOULD BE FATTER!<br /><br />@Matthew- I kiiiind of see how that works, in that the book gave you more background and so you can be like 'poor Carrie' or whatever even though it isn't fully expressed on screen. But still, I really don't like it. Also, YAY for making you lol. It's my life's work :)Laurahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17371636785566309578noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6275165298547340568.post-46506072791581729552012-04-25T22:02:32.547+01:002012-04-25T22:02:32.547+01:00No way.

I didn't care for the film when I first saw it years ago but, after reading the book, I saw it again and loved it.<br />"He has a fucking perm" had me rolling, so I'll let you off.Mattowarhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06245715832684524370noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6275165298547340568.post-9013798936910539532012-04-25T21:23:36.083+01:002012-04-25T21:23:36.083+01:00But...but..Chloe Moretz...But...but..Chloe Moretz...Reading Rambohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12614467198216577755noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6275165298547340568.post-13017958919198591422012-04-25T20:24:01.209+01:002012-04-25T20:24:01.209+01:00You thought that was bad?
