Things I noticed in the background of IT
Ok, so after 4 viewings, here are some amazing and creepy things I noticed in the background of various scenes:
- Librarian creepily staring/smiling at Ben while he’s reading about the ironworks explosion
- Huge portrait of Pennywise hiding in the mural painted on the wall outside the pharmacy (you can see it at the very end of the scene where the losers are patching up Ben’s “H” cut)
- Red balloon floating away in the background near the top of the tree line while Bill is talking to the rest of the losers before going into Neibolt
- Clown doll on a shelf in Bev’s apartment
- Pennywise in the background of the Easter picture at the Ironworks
- Georgie’s room is done in Circus theme, even the wallpaper
- Turtle Lego model, turtle shaped pile of stuff left out on the street where Georgie is floating his boat, and turtle in the water at the quarry
- I’m not sure if this is going to turn into anything yet, but it seemed like they went out of their way to bring attention to the Standpipe, without ACTUALLY bringing attention to it. It’s very prominent in the background of several scenes, it’s on Bev’s postcard, and Ben is carrying a model of it out of school on the last day
Feel free to add anything you noticed!
