I hope they take the Marvel path and drop hints in it related to other King books and do those movies next

specifically ones with ties to The Stand.

Responses:

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
