yet welcome to watchmojo.com and today
we’re counting down our picks for the
top 10 things we want to see in it
chapter 2 before we begin we publish new

subscribe to our channel and ring the
bell to get notified about our latest
videos for this list we’re looking at
the second chapter of the new adaptation
of Stephen King’s legendary novel and
pinpointing some key elements we’d like
number 10 more forms for it don’t get us
wrong bill scars guards Pennywise is
plenty scary but the alternate forms
taken on by this sinister force of evil
add a nice bit of diversity to the fear
we get to experience like that
terrifying painting in the sequel we’d
love to see the filmmakers explore even
more unsettling disguises in the novel
and miniseries it eventually takes the
form of a giant monstrous spider while
this creature as it appeared in 1990
looks a little silly nowadays one can’t
help but wonder how it would translate
using modern visual effects we want to
see it pull out all the stops when the
number nine more accurate representation
of its true form speaking of the forms
that it takes while tormenting the
residents of Derry we’d like to see the
new film take a stab at showing its true
form the otherworldly deadlights
like any good cosmic horror this true
form is hard to describe and even harder
to witness without going either insane
or comatose the first installment in
this new adaptation gave us a glimpse of
this eldritch horrors true shape but
crazy as it might sound we want to get a
good look at it in all its horror
madness be damned aren’t you just a
little bit curious to number eight more
Henry Bowers dairies resident bully
comes sociopath certainly made an
impression in the first film but his
role is far from over
in the novel and miniseries Bowers later
returns as an agent of Pennywise a kind
of Renfield to his Dracula if you will
obviously we would love to see this play
out in part two but in addition to that
we’d also like to see further
exploration of Henry’s backstory and
motives is he really just a
run-of-the-mill small-town bully or is
there more to this violent young man
than meets the eye a little more insight
into this character psyche would make
for a welcome addition to the narrative
and nothing like a little fear to make a
paper man crumble number 7 practical
the first movie in the series walked an
almost-perfect line when it came to
mixing computer-generated effects with
tried-and-true practical costumes and
creatures and we want to see this
continue the argument against CGI has
been made time and time again but we’ll
say it once more for the cheap seats in
the back a well conceived and executed
practical effect is infinitely more
memorable than one achieved with CGI we
want to see the next chapter of this
horror saga push the envelope even
further in its effects work using CGI to
augment but never supplant the horrors
brought to the screen using practical
special effects work number six a big
climactic final battle with it when a
film reaches its inevitable climax it’s
go big or go home and in this sequel we
want to see the losers Club and their
arch-nemesis go toe-to-toe in epic
fashion after two films worth of
build-up the final confrontation needs
to be a real showstopper the filmmakers
working behind the camera can make that
happen
the finale has to be grandiose
suspenseful and more importantly scary
this is a tall order we know but based
on the first film we’re confident they
can pull it off a big-screen adaptation
of a novel this iconic deserves nothing
less she wasn’t afraid
we are neither number-5 a cast of
unknowns ever since the first chapter
hit theaters fans and cast members alike
have been weighing in on who should play
the losers club as adults a lot of big
names have been thrown around including
Chris Pratt for an adult Ben and Jessica
Chastain taking over as Beverly from
Sofia Louis as much as we can appreciate
these suggestions there is an argument
to be made for having an adult losers
Club played by relative unknowns
honestly it would just be too
distracting to watch penny wise trying
to scare star-lord for cinema goers who
truly suspend their disbelief and lose
themselves to the fear the central
characters should come without the
baggage of recognizable faces number 4
the child actors from Part one actor WC
Fields famously said never work with
animals or children but it’s a pretty
safe bet that he never saw the first
chapter of it the performance is
delivered by these young leads including
Finn wolf hard from stranger things and
breakout star Sofia lillas who played
Beverly Marsh proved to be one of the
major talking points when the film was
released though the success of 2017 it
was the combination of many factors
things could have gone very differently
had the cast not been up to the task
thankfully they were and we’d love to
see them return in some capacity in the
sequel most likely in flashbacks I saw
us of us together back hey sister
we were older our parents ages number-3
match her in the turtle stephen king’s
literary universe runs deep and is full
of strange and otherworldly entities one
of these and one that Pennywise
considers an enemy is this massive
sentient turtle the creature is said to
be older than the universe itself and
has been credited with birthing the
universe by vomiting it up hey you can’t
accuse king of not being creative in the
novel this entity briefly contacts bill
to lend advice on defeating Pennywise
though the inclusion of Maturin might be
a hard sell for some cinema goers should
the sequel choose to go all-in on the
novel’s elements of love crafty and
cosmic horror this turtle would make for
a bold addition turtle number two an
we mentioned earlier it’s hard to get
much scarier than the film’s titular
clown but nevertheless the sequel will
need to up the ante grown-ups are harder
to frighten than children so when facing
off against an adult losers Club penny
wise is gonna need to bring his a-game
for our money we’d love to see this
translate into less reliance on jump
scares the first film delivered plenty
of rights but many leaned on shock value
in the sequel we want more creeping
inescapable dread and psychological
horror thrown into the mix pull this off
while maintaining quality and you’ve got
an even scarier dancing clown this isn’t
really enough for you really
I really know for you before we unveil
our number one pick here are some
aren’t you gonna say hello see my
fortune now you’re gonna be eaten by a
big greasy monster have a nice day
number one it’s cosmic origins we’ve
talked a lot about cosmic horror and the
more out there elements of kings
original novel and this is a
continuation of that the novel features
a lot more information about its true
nature
with some chapters even narrated by the
entity itself some would say the
creature scarier the less you know about
it but we want to see the sequel embrace
these elements by shedding more light
dead lights perhaps on the true nature
of the beast that haunts the children of
Derry few movies have really pulled off
cosmic horror and we want to see the
sequel breakthrough this cinematic
barrier do you agree with our pics check
