Its so stupid but that spider gave me nightmares for years.
I think they might be able to tell the story of what IT actually is in the movie. Then just eh it's a spider in the sewer!

Saw the new It AND Dark Tower trailers with Atomic Blonde today. I don't know that I've ever seen two trailers of different King adaptations before the same movie before. :o
Maybe the vision from long ago thing? Hmm. Much can be done with it.
Considering the TV mini series was made on an extremely small budget 27 years ago, I think they did what they could at the time. Special effects have advanced considerably since then, so I think it's wrong to leave the giant spider out. If the Hobbit films can make giant spiders scary, then this film should be able to do so too.
This Spanish commercial has some new footage:

IIRC, in the novel, the only way the kids mind could grasp/see IT was as a spider. The monster/evil doesn't need to be a spider, it is just was what they saw.
The movie will be fine as long as they don't do something silly (hard to believe at this point).
I always got the impression that the spider was ITs final physical form. Its real form was the dead-lights from the great beyond. I loved the spider in the novel - yikes! - but yeah, it was meh in the miniseries. Since Muschietti has already stated the monsters will be more modern than the ones in the novel, the spider may very well have been scrapped and we'll get something else entirely...or the insane cosmic battle with the dead-lights (along with the Turtle) as in the novel ... but probably not
I thought Curry was great, but other approaches may work too.

"The It Experience," a new pop-up haunted house at Hollywood and Vine, offers fans of Stephen King's classic 1986 novel It a chance to step into the world of Pennywise the clown. The haunted house is for fans 18 and over, and comes ahead of the film adaptation, which opens Sept. 8.
Walking into the Niebolt House, named for the abandoned house the Loser's Club first encounter Pennywise in the novel, guests will be able to experience "where It lives" as they are guided by Georgie, whose wayward paper sailboat sets the story in motion in the book and film, through the 5,000 sq. foot house as they venture from room to room through immersive sets inspired by scenes from the film with authentic props.
In groups of seven, visitors will form their own Loser's Club as they traverse the haunted lair of the murderous entity known as It for a 20-minute experience encountering pneumatic surprises, live actors, holographic images and animatronic beings.
"The It Experience" will be open daily from Aug. 14 through Sept. 10 at Hollywood Blvd. and Vine St. in Hollywood.
