 What is going on guys welcome back to the channel critical overlord here? So take this with a grain of salt But it appears that we have some very exciting news for fans of Stephen King fans of Stephen King novels fans of it Pennywise fans of the losers club fans of the two film adaptations that we got over the past couple of years fans of the hit Mini series that came out in the 90s. It looks like Stephen King I'm assuming this has a lot to do with the success of those two film adaptations and his and how much he Gave his praise to them and his recent successes with his all his other movie all these other movies that have been adapted from his novels That he's been giving certification to that. Oh, these are some of the best movies ever this than the other when some of them were decent at best Getting into the news it would appear according to Individual on Twitter who is her name is I believe is pronounced Emory Kaia if I pronounce your name wrong I do apologize I'm gonna put up a screen cap of the tweet that she left She broke news that an it sequel book is in the works So a a sequel to the to the it novel is in the works Presumably again going to be written by Stephen King, of course And that's all she knows at the time now. What's interesting is she did break this or kind of hinted at this towards of The end of June back in June Last month, I didn't make a video talking about this because I wanted to see if any actual news would come out from from Stephen King Himself, but just kind of just to talk about something because I am a big fan of Pennywise And I would love to see a continuation of that novel and then what we all know and are mostly we're gonna be Excited about if you're not someone who likes to read novels If you haven't read the original novel you just watched the miniseries and the two recent film adaptation that we got from Andres Muschietti Of course down the road that means we could be looking at having Bill Skarsgard back in the makeup for Proprising the role of Pennywise if this novel actually comes to fruition if this is a hundred percent credible and Stephen King actually Announces that he is working on the project now if Stephen King doesn't announce that he's working on the novel I don't want everyone to take this as this individual's line What happens a lot of times is that when you get the scoop on something Yeah, you're getting the scoop on something that actually is real, but things could always fall through the cracks again We're living in a pandemic Stephen King Might have things come up that he might not get to finish the novel I don't know how long he's actually been working on it, but apparently it's a sequel to it So I'm a big fan of that book I appreciate the book more so of course in that the miniseries adaptation and the film that we the two films We've got my answer pain. I think the movies are more closer to the source material than the miniseries I haven't read the book in quite some time But from what I can recall the movies adapted the novel better than the miniseries in my honest opinion But I'm really excited. I hope this is true. I hope that Stephen King is working on this as we speak I hope nothing happens in this project does not fall through the cracks. I hope the novel is going to get finished Published get critical acclaim similar to how this is a very similar situation there Where we got a film adaptation for the shining back in 1980 and then many years later in the First half of the 2010s Stephen King published a sequel sequel novel to the shining Doctor sleep and then a couple years later. We need up getting a knob. We ended up getting a film adaptation of that of that novel Dr. Sleep we got that last year actually one of the best horror movies of the decade in my honest opinion One of the best horror movies of 2019 very slow burn very much a slow brand Oh, so if there's not your cup of tea, I can I can appreciate and respect that But at the same time if you want to be an honest film critic and you want to be actual You want to actually talk about movies that are good and bad Don't just don't just denounce dr. Sleep because it was too slow for you There's aspects of filmmaking that have to do more than just us liking and disliking it I'm not a big fan of tights. I'm not a big fan of Titanic myself But in no way shape or form what I ever come out and say that Titanic is a horrendous movie because it quite possibly is One of the best love story films ever ever made ever to be released Same same can be said for dr. Sleep if you want to sit back and be fair on your criticisms If you're in the know about things that go into filmmaking Cinematography direction acting writing I can appreciate and respect that Most of you who are not a fan of dr. Sleep are upset with the fact that them the film adaptation does change several things I am aware that From the novel to the film we get some major differences I am aware of that. I understand and respected that's something that frustrates you But still appreciate and critique what we've what we got what we ended up getting the final product and honestly Be me being a bit a big fan of the shiny novel and dr. Sleep. I was satisfied with the film I would have very much appreciated had they not have Tried to tie too much in the Kubrick's movie, but I do love and respect is how they managed to Mike Flanagan who I'm speaking into speaking about respectively how he managed to blend a Continuation of Kubrick's film do his own thing and also be a continuation of the novel of the two novels Making making all these factors into this one movie. I appreciated that that shows a lot of talent And dr. Sleep is one of the better film adaptation I just want to talk about that briefly give an example of what's going on with Pennywise because if Stephen King puts out a new It novel and I'm just gonna go out and say maybe it's gonna be called Pennywise Maybe it might just be called Pennywise or maybe it's called of If he wants to call it it too he can do he can do that as well Maybe he calls it the Losers Club Maybe maybe this is actually cuz cuz she's saying that it's a Emory Emory Kaia she's saying that it's a sequel novel but we could always learn down the road that it might be a Prequel maybe he wants to switch things up make it a prequel novel But of course we won't know any specifics until King himself comes out and announces it She herself did say that this is all she knows that it's in the works And that is being worked on by King apparently but King himself hasn't made any specific announcements A lot of that could be tied into the fact that we're in this pandemic and he might be holding off on something That he's gonna announce Only for things to happen and he can't get it published due to the pandemic and all these other factors That go into getting a novel published But I'm hoping that what we have learned Here today or what you have learned and what I have learned myself does actually come to fruition I hope we get another it novel. I hope we see the return of Dairy Maine I hope we see the Losers Club back in some capacity because Pennywise comes out every 27 years if I'm remembering correctly So at this point if they do make another film and in the novel itself Let's just say if he's setting it 27 years later, the losers would be middle-aged at this point Probably almost near elderly. So I don't think we'll be having them be the focus But she did also say that the novel is said to be very very drug heavy So whatever that means again, we have to wait to see what Stephen King himself comes out to say or they're not this is Actually a hundred percent factual again if nothing happens, it does not mean that she was lying She got word of a scoop of Something being worked on and she just Wanted to want to come out and talk about it I may be Stephen King decided to scrap the novel for whatever reason or another That does not mean that there was not actual movement on the project now again That doesn't also mean that she wasn't simply looking for clout I do not feel that this person is looking for clout From what I have seen from her and what a lot of other people in the community have told me She has a very reputable Reputation when it comes to credible information and news being released from her So I'm pretty certain that we'll end up finding out something regarding this new it novel that apparently is going to be a Sequel that is picking up 27 years later One would assume and we'll be returning back to Derry Maine and we'll be catching up with probably a new group of kids New group of teens adults who are going to be our next gen of losers But now what I did also on top of is how long will we have what we have to wait till then for another movie to come out? And I would honestly say we probably won't have to wait as long as we did for dr. Sleep I could see the it chapter 2 or not chapter 2 But the it to whatever is going to be called that sequel novel being released and then let's say maybe two three years later We get a film adaptation of it That's gonna be of course a sequel to Andres Muschietti's first two film adaptations. Maybe we can even get him back to direct it Maybe we can get Bill Skarsgard back They've already expressed interest in actually returning to do a chapter 3 if I'm not mistaken ideas of exploring the prequel route all those all those prior Instances that King does describe vividly in the in the novel that they were can make an entire prequel movie about that I'd rather you hold off and just make a movie based off of another novel that King wrote versus doing your own thing If you're gonna do something and it's messed up at least have King the fall back on in terms of just saying you were trying to emulate the source material But let me know what you guys think about all this down in the comment section below Would you be excited about this would you also be excited about getting another it film down the road because of this?
