The closer this gets to reality, the stronger my vapors. -- nm - Cran-Baron-ies Nov 24, 18:32
I hope they take the Marvel path and drop hints in it related to other King books and do those movies next - Beaker Nov 24, 18:18 16
- apparently ALL of King's books are related somehow. -- nm - Remlik Nov 24, 18:24 7
  - back when I read all of his numerous times over I could rhyme off most of the connections right away -- nm - Beaker Nov 24, 18:26 4
    - some are pretty flimsy. Insomnia for example. - Reagen Nov 24, 18:31 3
      - here's a nice roundup of the connections.... -- (link) - Remlik Nov 24, 18:38
      - a line throwaway line near the end - spoilers - Beaker Nov 24, 18:32 1
        
        yeah, King was working pretty hard to make fetch happen at that point. -- nm - Reagen Nov 24, 18:34
  - not all but a huge proportion. -- nm - Reagen Nov 24, 18:26
  - Castle Rock ftw - Jovian Nov 24, 18:25
- *puts in a request of Eyes of the Dragon* - znufrii Nov 24, 18:22 1
  - one of my favorites of his actually -- nm - Beaker Nov 24, 18:26
- Well, further, all King movies should lead up to The Dark Tower series/films. -- nm - nubby Nov 24, 18:20 3
  - Minimally, they'd need to do 'Salem's Lot (again) and Hearts in Atlantis (again) -- nm - nubby Nov 24, 18:22 2
    - and Pet Sematary (again) -- nm - Jovian Nov 24, 18:24 1
      - and Insomnia, which I haven't read but will. -- nm - Cran-Baron-ies Nov 24, 18:31
- Like to see if they would ever have the balls to adapt The Long Walk -- nm - Jovian Nov 24, 18:20 1
  - also, this is a joke, they would never adapt this. - Jovian Nov 24, 18:21
I originally thought four films was too much, and might still (three seems the max) - ty97 Nov 24, 18:14 2
- still one of my favorites all time - Jovian Nov 24, 18:19 1
  - Me too. I have been trying to get both of my boys (age 18 and 15) to read it with no success -- nm - Rollo Nov 24, 18:28
*four film* adaptation??? *TWITCH* -- nm - Jovian Nov 24, 18:13
Based on True Detective, I think that's a good fit. -- nm - nubby Nov 24, 18:11
