History Heartwarming / It2017

* The finale, wherein all Seven Losers bond as BloodBrothers (and Sister) with the help of a broken bottle, vowing to be there for each other the next time Pennywise returns.

** Ben, Beverly, and Mike, all outcasts for different reasons (Ben's weight, plus the fact he's the new kid in town, Beverly's lower-class background and undeserved reputation for promiscuity, and Mike as a home-schooled black kid), all find comfort and friendship in the losers.

* At the beginning, Bill making Georgie a paper boat, writing his name on it, and addressing his little brother as "Captain", followed by Georgie hugging him. Seeing their affection for each other makes [[DeathOfAChild what happens to Georgie]] all the more tragic.

* Meta example: Despite his character being a vicious and absolutely terrifying monster, Creator/BillSkarsgard himself is confirmed to be an absolute sweetheart. Sure, when the cameras were rolling he most definitely brought his A-game, but as soon as the director says "cut" he had been seen comforting his young co-stars, assuring them that it was all pretend. Of note was the very first scene he had done with Eddie: ''“There’s a scene with Jack, who plays Eddie,” says Skarsgård. “I come out of this refrigerator and start walking towards him, very much in his face. When they shout action, I get really into it -– it’s really, really intense. I’m drooling all over him, and Jack is, like, gagging and crying and screaming and it’s horrible, but you know, it’s for the movie. I kind of plough through and then as soon as they say ‘cut’ I go, ‘Hey, yo, are you OK Jack?’ And he turns to me and goes, ‘Yeah man, that’s fucking awesome! I love what you’re doing, you’re awesome!’ He’s turned on a dime and I’m like, ‘What are you?’ They’re like little professionals.”''

* Henry Bowers and his gang don't exactly evoke the warm and fuzzy feelings inside you, behaving horribly in almost every scene they're in. Yet even the Bowers gang manage two moments that are a touch heartwarming. The most obvious one is Victor and Belch being there for Henry after a bad encounter between Henry and his father, showing that genuine friendship does exist between them. The other is relatively minor, yet still worth mentioning. On the last day of school before summer break Henry threatens Bill that they will be coming after him during the summer. He mentions that they have been going easy on Bill since Georgie went missing, but that this free pass is now ended. Despite how horrible they are to the Losers Club (and no doubt a lot of other students as well), even Henry and his gang have the decency and compassion (or understanding that there are lines they can't get away with crossing in the eyes of all their peers and society) to go easy on the kid who lost his younger brother - even if only for eight months or so.

* The guys comfort a traumatized Stanley, after he was attacked by Pennywise, and tell him that they would never desert him.

*** There are similar photos to the above ones with Scott and Skarsgard, such as one where everyone's holding their actor's chair signs, with Skarsgard and Jackson holding one with "IT" on it and one where the actors are in a room with Andres with ''a tired Jackson being held by Skarsgard''. Dawww!!!

* In a heartwarming but tragic scene: Bill's entire motivation in the film: He thinks Georgie's actually alive/kidnapped by IT and wants to find him, even though deep inside he knows his little brother's dead and is [[ItsAllMyFault possibly blaming himself for not being there for when he went outside]].It's a kinda twisted heartwarming that he wants to find his brother or at least know he's alive somewhere, even though it's far from the truth.

* When Bev finds Ben's New Kids On the Block poster on the back of his door, she doesn't try to embarrass him or tell anyone else in the room. She quietly moves the door so that the others can't see it. She does tease him eventually by making puns about NKOTB songs, but those jokes only make sense if you're in the know like the two of them are.

** Despite the Losers having pretty much [[spoiler: broken apart after Eddie's injury at the Neibold House]], being estranged from each other for a month, when [[spoiler: Beverly is kidnapped by Pennywise and Bill tries to rally them... ''not one of them backs down"]]. Nothing stops the gang from rescuing their friend from Pennywise. Not even parents, bullies, or childhood fears stops them, and they would stop at nothing to save Bev from IT. Special mention goes to Mike, who shows up with his bolt gun and a face like fucking granite. If he has to put a spike through this thing's skull to protect his friends, so goddamn be it.

** Later, when Pennywise himself appears and corners the Losers, Richie seems to actually turn Eddie's face away from the monster, as if protecting him from having to see it.

* In a sad but still heartwarming way [[spoiler: seeing the bodies of children from ITs previous victims float down after the Losers defeat IT a sign that now for the time being at least the horror and nightmare of children being killed and going missing in Derry is over]]

** Also in the trailer, when the projector starts to go haywire and Pennywise begins to appear, Richie is seen grabbing a hold of Eddie as if either to protect him or for physical support.
