NC: Hello, I’m the Nostalgia Critic. I remember it so you don’t have to! And seeing how we are still in the month of Nostalgiaween…

(A clip from “It’s the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown!” where a chainsaw killer cuts off Linus and Lucy’s heads and the title “Nostalgia-Ween!” appears)

NC:…I figure we will play a little game, simply known as “The Stephen King Drinking Game!”

(A title card with the words “The Stephen King Drinking Game!” and Stephen King’s head appears over stock footage of an audience applauding; a montage of Stephen King and photos from movie adaptations of his literary works appear)

NC (voiceover): Good ol’ Stephen King. His prose are great, but his stories are crap. He has wonderful setups but disappointing payoffs. He creates some great characters, and fortunately, you get to see them over and over and over again!

NC: And one of the best ways to see these continuing patterns is the ass-numbingly long TV miniseries “It.”

(The title screen appears, and footage of “It” is played)

NC (voiceover): Based on the Stephen King book of the same name, “It” is another one of those films that loves to succumb to the melodramatic clichés that always seems to make it into every one of his stories. But what really surprised me is how many people say they are actually AFRAID of this movie, and that’s why I invented this drinking game to calm your nerves.

NC: (holds up his whiskey bottle) There’s a lot of movie to watch, and a lot of booze to drink, so let’s take a look.

NC (voiceover): First of all, take a shot if your Stephen King story takes place in Maine.

(A caption of “Derry, Maine” is shown)

NC: Well, that didn’t take long. (takes a shot)

NC (voiceover): Yeah, our story takes place in Maine, where everyone has a checkered past, bullies make up most of the population, and cheesy lightning effects reign supreme. (A clip of the cheesey lightning effect is shown) In this particular town, we come across a girl who sees a rather unusual sight.

Pennywise the Dancing Clown: Hi.

NC (voiceover): Tim Curry! If that’s not scary enough, it looks as though he coming from the black mass of Ronald McDonald.

(camera closeup on the girl as if Pennywise is approaching her before fading to black)

<p style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt">NC (voiceover): So the kid gets murdered, as Mike—the only black man in Maine—notices that this is the sixth recent child killing. So he calls up his childhood friends to let them know what’s going on. He starts with Bill, who grew up into the back of a horse’s ass.

<p style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt">Mike: (voice on the other end of the phone)This is Mike Hanlon, Bill, from Derry.

<p style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt">NC (voiceover): This causes him to have a flashback, which I’m not gonna have you drink to every time it happens, because if you did, you’d be dead in the first 12 minutes.

<p style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt">Georgie (Bill’s little brother): Please, Bill? Tell me a story.

<p style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt">Young Bill: (resting in bed) Go…b-bug somebody else, you little cooty. I don’t feel so hot.

<p style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt">NC (voiceover): This is Bill as a young man, played by Jonathan Brandis.

<p style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt">(The Elephant in the Room appears next to NC)

<p style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt">NC: Piss off!

<p style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt">Elephant in the Room: Hmmm. (leaves offscreen)

<p style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt">NC (voiceover): He makes his brother Georgie a paper boat for him to sail outside. Thankfully, it’s the sunniest rainy day in history, so he can go outside and enjoy it. That is, until the missing member of the Insane Clown Posse comes to join him.

<p style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt">Pennywise: (talking in the rain gutter) There’s cotton candy and rides and all sorts of surprises down here. And balloons, too!

<p style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt">Georgie: Do they float?

<p style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt">Pennywise: (speaks erotically) Oh, yes. They float, Georgie. They float.

<p style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt">NC: (imitates Pennywise) I’m getting surprisingly aroused the more I talk about how much they float!

<p style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt">Pennywise: YOU’LL FLOAT, TOO! (grabs Georgie’s arm and pulls on it, to which Georgie screams in pain as we see Pennywise’s scary face)

<p style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt">NC (voiceover): So the kid gets eaten by a sloppy dissolve effect* as his sad brother goes to his room feeling responsible. And it’s fair to point out that this actually is a creepy scene.

<p style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt">*(Actually, Georgie’s arm gets ripped off, making him bleed to death, so he doesn’t get eaten. It’s even mentioned at one point in the miniseries)

<p style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt">(Georgie in the black-and-white photo winks to him; this scares Bill, as he tosses the book aside. The book starts flipping random pages on its own right to the page with Georgie’s photo on it. Blood starts to come out from behind the photo)

<p style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt">NC (voiceover): The book starts to have its time of the month when Bill calls for his folks to see it, but the parents surprisingly don’t seem to see the blood on the book.

<p style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt">Bill’s Father: What were you doing in Georgie’s room?

<p style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt">Young Bill: N-Nothing. Dad, listen!

<p style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt">Bill’s Father: I don’t want you ever coming in here again, son. Do you understand?

<p style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt">NC: (imitates Bill’s Father) How dare you try to mourn the loss of your one and only brother! (pretends to smack the camera in the face)

<p style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt">NC (voiceover): Cut back to the present day, as grown-up Bill decides to go back to Maine.

<p style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt">Audra Denbrough (Bill’s wife): Leave? Have you lost your mind? We’re in the middle of making a movie!

<p style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt">Bill: They can replace me.

<p style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt">NC: Yeah, if I saw Tim Curry in a clown suit, I’d probably leave production, too.

<p style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt">NC (voiceover): Oh, by the way, just to avoid future disappointment, let’s take an early shot for a supernatural creature who is never given an explanation of exactly what it is or where exactly it came from.

<p style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt">NC: (takes a shot) Ohh, that’s a good letdown.

<p style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt">NC (voiceover): Meanwhile, we cut to another childhood friend named Ben, played by John Ritter.

<p style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt">Ben: Can you believe I used to be fat?

<p style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt">Girlfriend: I bet you were real cute.

<p style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt">Ben: No, not just fat, but a regular butterball. “You bet your fern, I was.” We used to say that as kids. “You bet your fern.” But I was F-A-T.

<p style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt">Girlfriend: (starts talking in lust) Noo.

<p style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt">Ben: Yes.

<p style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt">NC: (imitates the girlfriend by rubbing all over his chest) Ohh, fat kids are hot. Tell me about your boy tits!

<p style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt">(The phone rings, and Ben answers it)

<p style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt">Ben: Hello?

<p style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt">Mike: (voice on the other end of the phone) Haystack, it’s me, Mike.

<p style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt">(Camera closeup to Ben as we transition quickly to a scene with Young Ben being threatened by a gang of bullies)

<p style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt">NC (voiceover): (laughs) OK, these flashback transitions are getting a little silly.

<p style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt">Young teen’s voice from “Wayne’s World”: (played as camera zooms up on Ben) Extreme Closeup! Woah!

<p style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt">Mike: (voice on the phone) Listen, It’s…It’s come back.

<p style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt">NC (voiceover): Ritter says “No” to his ho on the go as he sits atop a tall building and ponders his past about being the new kid.

<p style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt">(Cut to a classroom in the past)

<p style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt">Teacher: Welcome to Derry.

<p style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt">Young Ben: Thank you, Miss Douglas.

<p style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt">Young Henry Bowers: Oink. Oink. What a porker.

<p style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt">Miss Douglas: Henry Bowers. You will stay one hour after school every day this week. Now, report to the principal’s office.

<p style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt">Young Henry: (stands up to leave and then points to Young Ben) You’re dead, fatboy.

<p style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt">NC (voiceover): (dubs for Miss Douglas in a snooty voice) Hmm, that I will allow. Threatening a boy’s life is OK, but calling him a porker is simply going too far! (normal voice) So Ben meets up with a girl named Beverly. They seem to hit it off pretty good, but the chorus from "Grease" has other ideas.

<p style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt">Young Henry: I wanna make sure you remember my name.

<p style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt">Young Ben: I’ll remember your name. I’ll remember your name.

<p style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt">Young Henry: How am I gonna make sure, huh? (flips open a switchblade)

<p style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt">NC (voiceover): Oh! I almost forgot! Take a shot for the one-dimensional bullies that have no development or any redeemable qualities whatsoever!

<p style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt">NC: Silly me. I thought I came across one that had some form of humanity. (takes a shot) Now…(gets his head straight from the effects of the alcohol)

<p style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt">NC (voiceover): So he loses the bullies as he comes across the kids from “Stand By Me”—I mean, his classroom, and of course, they become good friends. But that doesn’t help smooth things over with his step-family.

Oh, wait, no, sorry. They tip It over like a cow first and then they rip his heart out. Truly, this was a battle of wits! So they all go back home to their normal selves except for Bill’s wife, who seems to be in a zombie-like state because of the giant spider. But, somehow, riding downhill on a bike seems to make her better!

The plot makes no sense, it’s melodramatic as hell, and it all suffers from the Stephen King stereotypes we’ve seen a bajillion times before. And, plus, what’s with all the balloons?!
