Remember how ppl thought DOOM was gonna suck in 2016 with the multiplayer etc. But game delivered as fuck.

IT has the kinda same thing, the first image of Pennywise, and the whole Cary Fukanaga dropping out etc was making people doubt the movie. But it's doing so well now, and it is an amazing movie too.

Cary Fukanaga dropping out was the best thing that could've happened to IT.

Yeah, I read that he changed the names of the kids. Had some really strange choices like Stan seeing a naked woman masturbating, and it would've deviated a lot from the book.

But the reason ppl were hyped for him was cuz of True Detective season 1.

I've never seen that show, but his script was shit to start with and then it just kept getting worse with each draft.

He wanted Stan to be a goldfish.

A fucking goldfish.

I don't care if his previous work was any good. He has no business messing with IT.

Nier Automata is the game equalvalent of Doom 4.

People thought it would fail because of preexisting assumptions (multiplayer in Doom's case, fan service for Nier) and yet both delivered immensely in all of the other categories that weren't already judged in advance.

Nier is kinda unkown for many gamers as well....so I don't think that counts.

The details of his script that have come out are bizarre.

I mean, the film tells a totally different story to the book, but the fact that the characters are mostly the same and are true to themselves means it works as an adaptation.
