Eye scream, you scream, we all scream for Beverly!
- The Losers decide to take it upon themselves to stop Pennywise from taking any more children, complete with Bill giving a Rousing Speech.
- Richie even notes that Bill doesn't stutter once during that speech.
Bill: Look, you don't have to come in with me. But what happens when another Georgie goes missing? Or another Betty, or another Ed Corcoran, or... One of us? Are you just gonna pretend it isn't happening like everyone else in this town?! Because I can't! I go home and all I see is that Georgie isn't there. His clothes, his toys, his stupid stuffed animals... But HE isn't. So, walking into this house? For me, it's easier than walking into my own. - The rock war between The Losers and the Bowers gang that starts because the latter were harassing Mike. The Losers win.
- Set to freaking Anthrax, no less.
- Ben casts the first rock after Henry insults Beverly. It hits the bastard with a satisfying thwack on the head.
- Even funnier with Richie just a split second before all hell breaks loose:
Richie: ROCK WAR! (gets hit square in the face with a flying rock) - Eddie of all people gets the closest to Henry's gang, furiously throwing rocks.
- Especially Richie's line to Henry at the end. Capped with double middle fingers for maximum effect.
Richie: Go blow your dad, you mullet-wearing asshole! - Henry Bowers killing his abusive father. The man was clearly shown to be the cause for his son’s behavior, beating him for losing his switchblade (in a deleted scene we even see lash marks all over Henry's back) and shooting a gun inches away from his feet just to frighten him. While this was the start of Henry's descent into madness, no tears are shed when his bastard of a father meets his end at his hand.
- The final confrontation in the film. After all the scares, the running away, the screaming... fighting back never felt so good. Good enough for the entire cinema to start cheering on.
- Just the bit when Pennywise starts retreating and the Losers close in. It's power is fear but without that, It has nothing.
- Beverly knocking her pedophile father out cold in self-defense. Unfortunately, the awesomeness of that was undercut by Pennywise kidnapping her afterwards.
- Although there is still a fairly awesome silver lining to Bev's kidnapping; she had completely lost all fear of IT, and ITs kidnapping of her was out of frustration that he couldn't prey upon her more than anything else.
- Eddie finally standing up to his domineering mother after a lifetime of being lied to that he is a frail asthmatic, furiously declaring that she has robbed him of a full and happy life, and that she will never keep him away from his friends ever again. As a gesture of his galvanized will prior to the finally battle against Pennywise, he contemptuously tosses away the fake medicine she crammed down his throat all his life, finally taking charge of his own destiny for the very first time.
- Pennywise grabs hold of Bill, telling the Losers that if they leave, he'll only eat him and leave the rest of them alone, which even Bill urges them to accept after everything he's forced them through. Richie answers with this:Richie: I fucking told you, Bill. I don't wanna die. It's your fault. You punched me in the face, made me walk through shitty water, brought me to a fucking crackhead house! And now? [goes to Pennywise's trophy pile and draws a baseball bat] I'm going to have to kill this fucking clown.
- Richie is a little badass, folks.
- And this.
Richie: WELCOME TO THE LOSERS' CLUB, ASSHOLE! [smashes IT across the face]- For bonus points, during the lead up to the aforementioned moment, Richie's words make it seem like he's going to take Pennywise's bargain. Then he draws the bat and smashes it against that fucking clown's face to save his friend.
- The epic final battle of the Loser's Club versus Pennywise, as our seven heroes work together as one to deliver a spectacular No-Holds-Barred Beatdown on the Monster Clown, pounding the entity into a terrified and helpless mess, cowering for its life.
- Not only that, but Mike had enough foresight to not carry a loaded bolt gun before he and his friends were about to enter Its lair. Upon being ambushed by Henry Bowers, the bully snatches Mike's weapon and attempts to kill him with his own bolt gun... only to discover that there's no ammunition, giving Mike enough time to distract him with a rock to the head. Mike finally charges Henry and tackles him into the well, leaving him for the sequel.
- When IT hurls itself at Bill (with the Bolt Gun the only thing between Its jaws and Bill's throat), all of the kids dog-pile on IT's back to save him, with Ben holding onto Its arm for dear life and even biting IT.
- IT tries to exploit Eddie's fear of germs, but after finding out his mom was using it to manipulate him it became a Berserk Button instead. He flies into an unstoppable rage and soccer kicks IT in the face.
- IT takes the form of Beverly's father to scare her. He doesn't even finish speaking before she stabs him, showing how little he/IT scares her now. Pennywise couldn't have picked an easier target for if it tried.
- While easy to miss in the funny moment, when the other Losers raise their hands to stay behind on the trip in to Pennywise's lair, Bev's hand doesn't even twitch. The girl has nerves of steel.
- Beverly ramming a spike through Its face at Neibolt House, forcing IT to retreat.
- Before that, Bill and Richie escaping Pennywise's trap by refusing to believe IT exists. It's the moment everything starts going wrong for the clown, and actually draws Its attention.
- The final battle in its entirety. The Losers, the unlikely group of social outcasts banded together, confront Pennywise in his lair and face him on his own terms. Pennywise constantly attempts to shift his form to scare them, but all of them fight through their own fear, inflicting wound after wound. Pennywise finally takes Bill hostage and says he'll let them go if they leave him only Bill, or they can all stay and die. Richie, whose friendship with Bill has been on the rocks, is the first to say hell to the no on this offer and resume the attack on Pennywise. After being beaten and broken, Pennywise is left a cringing wreck on the ground, beaten by the kids he'd hurt and tormented for so long. What drives it home is Bill's amazing line: "Now you're the one who's afraid." After centuries of evil and murder, Pennywise has faced his first defeat at the hands of the children he's taken so lightly.
- By the end of it, it's the Humanoid Abomination who's repeating the "sees the ghosts" mantra in a desperate bid to calm Itself down. And it's stuttering. With none of the kids afraid of it, the only fear it can feed off of... is its own. So it starts to literally eat itself alive, taking in a sensation it has never felt until this moment.
Pennywise: Fear.... [drops down into the dark abyss below.] - Even though it's only a gag opening
, it's quite cathartic to see Georgie escape from Pennywise and his untimely demise at the beginning of the film. - The deleted scene where Stanley makes his Bar Mitzvah speech. It seems to be going as planned, until it takes a drastic turn when Stan seems to go off the script for his speech, drops the mic, and walks out while Richie stands up and slow claps.
- Even more awesome when this scene actually turns up in Chapter 2, and serves as the motivating for adult Richie to go back to the Losers for the final fight against Pennywise.
