Letsgoooooooooooo .. we will all float down here 🎈 🎈

What would happen if IT was bound to a human and had to obey him and couldn’t hurt and the human treated him as a partner?Would IT be able to develop feelings like companionship or attachment to the human and could IT ever become a partner and companion to the human that cares about him and how would IT treat this human?

As someone who has OCD and autism, this really bugged me. I finally found the ages the main cast should be!
Marge should be 13, based on many sources, including the official HBO description and how she wears some clothes that look more adult/teen themed.
Lily is supposed to be 12 or 11, turning 12 very soon.
The official description on HBO makes her 12; by her clothing style and how she talks, she fits right into that preteen category.
Will is 12, as confirmed.
Rich is a hard one.
The German description lists him as 10, but HBO (America) makes him 12.
By going over this (the way he talks, dresses, etc.), he fits exactly at 12.
And Ronnie is also 12, confirmed.
So in a nutshell:
Lily: 11-12
Margie: 12-13
Ronnie: 12
Will: 12
Rich: 12

Just started watching the Welcome To Derry series for the first time and I’m honestly a little disappointed. I wouldn’t say it was horrible overall it definitely had some interesting aspects but what really disappointed me was the adult storyline. Maybe it’s just because I’m a teenager, therefore the teenage plot only interests me because I can at least relate to it a little, but the adult storyline and characters felt so underwhelming and confusing to me. And not to mention, a lot of the scenes even seemed… irrelevant overall? I haven’t finished the entire series yet but I tried to give the adult storyline a chance, forcing myself to get through the scenes but I eventually just accepted that it was too boring and I started to just skip them. As a person of color I do appreciate the representation of racism and systematic oppression in the adult storyline but even then I don’t think that was entirely accurate anyways, I think the way they showed people of color were treated back then was very sugar coated, as in real life it would’ve been a LOT worse, but I‘m still grateful they showed they were discriminated against even if the severity wasn’t accurate. Anyways what do you think? Did you enjoy the adult plot?

We were doing a re-watch and my husband pointed out that Matty (IT) was with the kids in the sewer, then IT also appeared to the soldiers in the sewer as different things at the same time. He asked me if that can happen or if it was a goof, and I just wasn't sure.

Just an FYI! I'm adding this to my TBR pile.
