The board's server will undergo upgrade maintenance tonight, Nov 5, 2014, beginning approximately around 10 PM ET. Prepare for some possible down time during this process.
Hopefully Flanagan can do for this book what Kubrick did for The Shining.
If so, I'm all in.
But the source material has me beyond skeptical. Fingers crossed.
Did you read it?
I sure did. When it first came out. So, it's been a while.
So you were not a fan?
Ive only read a synopsis of it now and it seems rather strange but I never judge a King novel until i read it.
King nails the adult Danny Torrence. His journey between The Shining and Doctor Sleep as King lays it out is terrific, and makes perfect sense. My two big problems are with the villains...
1. The female antagonist is described as basically Slash from Guns n' Roses. She is described as having a top hat the "floats." This was so goofy and cartoony, and it drove me bonkers even though it had no impact on the story.
2. The group that she leads is mostly very elderly, and there is entirely too much talk about gurgling bowels, old skin, and more in that vein. It just made me uncomfortable.
Basically everything with Danny was way better than i had hoped it would be, and everything with the villains was just weird.
It all seems more unnecessary than new star wars movies.

I can't help but wonder that if a 15 ft Great White doesn't normally go after humans because we aren't their food source why would a 75 ft Megladon bother?
I love that whats his name is so bad ass he has a bored look on this face as he's inches from being eaten.
