It was, but I think they're making this version set in the modern day. So when they're kids it is set in the 80s, and the adult story will be set today. I suppose it makes sense to try to modernise it. No one now is really nostalgic for the 50s, it's all about the 80s these days.
I thought the trailer looked great. I love the book, and the 90s version. It's one of the few films that scared me as a kid. I'll definitely be watching this on opening weekend.

I'm still waiting for the 90's Nostalgia wave to hit.
It used to be a 20 year gap.
Happy Days (50's) in the 70's
Wonder Years (Late 60's) in the Late 80's
That 70's (late 70's) Show in the late 90's. -Also Freaks and geeks.
Then the 80's idealized nostalgia took a slow burn.

It is like the Joker.
After Nicholson, Hamil and Ledger each had to put their own twist on it to get it over.

Anyone planning to go and see the movie? Alot of the reviews I've seen say it is both a great and scary horror movie, one in particular that said would transcend the years to be remembered like A Nightmare on Elm Street did in the 80's. 90% so far from RT. The success of this one would guarantee we see the adult portion next year too, even though it has already been filming but if this were to bomb, they would probably shelve it or go through with it and do a quiet type of release next year without alot of marketing.
Speaking of quiet/under the radar release, the trailer to the 3rd part of Jeepers Creepers came out this week and it is having a release of only one day later this month. The premiere has been canceled and a boycott of the movie is underway due to the director, who is a convicted sex offender.

I'll be going to see it on the weekend. There is a midnight showing tonight at my local cinema, and a couple of friends are going, but I am too old these days to do that and make it to work tomorrow morning.
It really does look good, and everyone who has seen it seems to like it. I'm a big King fan and it is so rare that they get the adaptation right, so I'm quite excited about it.

I hope this is better than Dark Tower. I had high hopes for that movie and by all accounts it was a steaming turd. 
This certainly has gotten me in the mood to watch the old miniseries though.

Never been a fan of King's books. His writing style is just not enjoyable for me. However I usually watch the movies and such and tend to have a good time with those. I know they aren't usually book accurate, but maybe that's why I like them.
Also, loved Tim Curry and John Ritter in the tv mini-series. Their performance alone made it worth watching.
