In response to "what are your concerns? -- nm" by Epiphany

The biggest concern for me is that there is major racial issues between Roland, Eddie and Detta. It's why he had such a hard time drawing her.

I'm sure they can work around it and he's a fantastic actor - but it seems like a pretty major portion of the early part of the saga.

Also - I'd kinda gotten on a Ned Stark for Roland kick in my own head lately. :)

I see your point. 10 years ago I wanted RCROWE for the part -- nm - Epiphany Mar 1, 07:09 6
- Yep, I was down with Crowe or Viggo. Honestly, at this point - I could see Leo making a good Roland. - Jim Mar 1, 07:11 5
  - Really? I would prefer a Clint Eastwood (in his prime) type. -- nm - mara Mar 1, 07:22 2
    - Oh my, Eastwood IS Roland. But it would have to be Josey Wales era Eastwood to pull it off. That's why Pippy and I moved on to other lesser qualifieds -- nm - Jim Mar 1, 07:26 1
      - What about Eastwood the Younger? -- nm - Beryllium Mar 1, 07:27
  - The imdb writers list give me some hope (but I've really been disappointed by some King movies in the past) - decline Mar 1, 07:20
  - Oooo - I did not know the IM - I think its a mistake not tell it in order. -- nm - Epiphany Mar 1, 07:17
