The first form of It
In the book and in the films it is clearly stated that the one of the clown it’s just a form that It borrows, but it’s not his true appearance. Stephen King admitted with Yahoo! Movies that he chose clowns because “they are scary“. But were clowns scary even to children several generations ago? When decided It that he would become a clown? In fact, when the Losers’ Club examines the photos, they discover that the monster has had the same clown form for at least a century.
It and the fight against Native Americans
In the second chapter of the saga, Mike explains that the tribe of Shokopiwah they had rare contacts with the monster, but who managed to imprison him for so many years thanks to the Chud ritual, the same one they also complete at the end of their adventure, as adults. Seeing the native tribe fight against It and manage to defeat it would surely be thrilling and very interesting.

The ancestors of the Losers Club
Everyone knows that It is only seen and felt by children and adults tend to forget about it, whether they leave Derry or not, just like the protagonists do. In the book, Dick Hallorann says he failed to save Mike’s father against the monster and therefore it is assumed that as a child he was part of a older generation of the Losers Club. It would be fascinating to see the parents of the characters, as children, fight against the monster: can you imagine Stan’s mother?
