I Come Bearing Frank N. Cense
How d'you do, fellow creepers/window peepers? Yes, it's obviously been a while since I've been active here, but much like a bag of sullied men's laundry absentmindedly left behind at my local Planet Fitness, I find this wiki difficult to stay away from/imbue with my essence. And much like a haggard, financially-unstable ex-porn star in their fifties forced to star/direct/die in "Tim Curry's Succulent SlurryFest VII", I now prematurely and quite messily come out of retirement and return to the best wiki there is.
But enough about me.
What's been going on around here? Any interesting goings-on or happenings? Were there any departures or returns of longtime users? Seems like there's some new faces lurking about, why not come say hi to Uncle Fra…
"I want to come again and stay..."
So... after a few months of on-again, mostly off-again activity on the wiki, I'm back to say that, basically, I've returned.
I honestly felt pretty shitty when I was away about not being on to respond to users/do RB stuff/keep people updated about my situation, but to keep things short I unfortunately felt that it was necessary to completely step away from the wiki in order to deal with various IRL ongoings.

private issues + family concerns + an arduous job search + higher education stress + aggravating computer problems, including a period of time when I had no way of getting the internet + remarkabl…
A Tale of Two Pennys: A Look at Pennywise the Clown From the 2017 "It" Remake
So as the resident Curry-head I felt I should make this blog post since it deals with one of Tim Curry's biggest roles. Just over a month ago (I'm lazy, okay?), Entertainment Weekly released a first-look photo of the new iteration of Pennywise the Dancing Clown, the otherworldly, face-painted antagonist to be featured in the 2017 film adaption of Stephen King's 1,100-page behemoth It. Of course It was already made into a 1990 two-part TV miniseries, with notorious British heartthrob Tim Curry as Pennywise. I personally enjoyed the 1990 series, despite its low budget, laughable effects and sometimes-shoddy acting. But what really made the 1990 series memorable was Curry's creepy-ass performance as Pennywise. But more on that later.
