Looking back on “IT”, it’s really hard to be scared of Pennywise or even take it entirely seriously as a monster, because, like?
-He randomly calls Ben “Egg boy” while chasing him for no discernable goddamn fucking reason.
-100% wall-eyed 100% of the time.
-Legitimately has a “pennywise the dancing clown” circus-cart deal set up in his lair. Actually fucking dances in front of Beverly. It was either a really weak attempt at intimidation or the dude just str8 up thought “oh hey I can work some dancing into this. live up to the name”. I’m not sure which is funnier.
-For that matter, works dancing into a lot of his routine. Prances around like he’s about to do the fandango 100% of the time. Just a big rude theatre kid?
-Physically powerful enough to overwhelm and catch his prey consistently but loses prey consistently because he’s too fucking extra to actually plan things out. Does shit for “the drama” even if it means losing a meal.
-“Egg boy”.
-Ready to ragequit if things go south. Has little conniptions whenever things don’t work as intended. Legitimately looks ready to cry when he gets his ass beat by a bunch of highschool freshmen.
-Has to dramatically backflip into a shadowy pit while reciting poetry after his defeat. Fucking theatre kid.
