Other mistake: When Mike tells bill to meet himself and the others at the jade of the orient restaurant Mike tells him the premises has been built recently and when Bill asks him if the food is any good Mike replies "I don't know."

Continuity mistake: Mike's father mentions that Henry Bowers is the worst bully at Mike's school. But Henry went to Derry Elementary and Mike to the church school at Neibolt Street.
Trivia: The worst guard at Juniper Hill is named Koontz - after Stephen King's rival in the horror genre.
Question: Why does It leave the picture of Georgie in 1985? The only reason I can think of is to alert the Losers Club, but It doesn't want them to come so that makes no sense.

Answer: It does want the Losers to come to Derry. If you remember, Mik tells that by the site of the Bellwood murder, It painted the words "come home, come home, come home", a clear message to the Losers.
