Green Mile? and before that?

Responses:

The Mist. Full list. - Spawn Mar 1, 07:49 8
- Dolores Claiborne if I'm going off the list/timeline -- nm - Epiphany Mar 1, 07:56
- agreed. that list is really hit or miss. -- nm - colin Mar 1, 07:53
- oh Needful Things. Now that one screamed to be done over 13 episodes on TV. Man would that be awesome -- nm - Beaker Mar 1, 07:52 2
  - Worst movie of his. When you take into account the quality of the book and the shittiness of the film. This takes the cake as the worst ever. -- nm - Jim Mar 1, 07:53 1
    - TV was the way to go. There was just too much, but now it could play out like GOT. I'd pay to see it on TV -- nm - Beaker Mar 1, 07:54
- A lot of the recent ones weren't theatrical releases. -- nm - Inigo Mar 1, 07:51
- I don't think you can really count any of the sequels as his movies -- nm - groiny Mar 1, 07:50 1
  - Agreed. I just CnP. -- nm - Spawn Mar 1, 07:50
I liked The Mist - but I might be alone on that. -- nm - Jim Mar 1, 07:48 12
- I have hopes for Cell this year too -- nm - decline Mar 1, 07:49 10
  - Cell has great potential. The first scene of the movie should be effing spectacular.... - Jim Mar 1, 07:51 9
    - Agreed. I'm looking forward to watching the new show on Hulu too (can't ever remember the date title) - oblique Mar 1, 07:54 6
      - 11-22-63 I watched the premiere. I liked it. Need to catch up. -- nm - Jim Mar 1, 07:55 5
        
        do you need a Hulu account to watch ? -- nm - decline Mar 1, 08:01 3
        
        good question - I tried to go to my Roku Hulu channel and I couldn't get on. Is it free for an account? -- nm - Epiphany Mar 1, 08:08 2
        
        Yes, you need a Hulu account to watch. My suggestion - wait until all 8 episodes have been released (Ep 3 dropped yesterday) and then do the free - Jim Mar 1, 08:30 1
        
        thanks. I will do that -- nm - Epiphany Mar 1, 08:31
        
        I've enjoyed the first three. Good setup. -- nm - Inigo Mar 1, 08:00
    - yup - and I like the casting of both Cusack and SLJ in their roles -- nm - decline Mar 1, 07:53
    - Agreed. That is the last King book I read. -- nm - Spawn Mar 1, 07:53
- I loved The Mist, but overall, I do not think many do. -- nm - groiny Mar 1, 07:49
Some would say The Mist. There haven't been many movies based on his work since 1999, though. -- nm - Inigo Mar 1, 07:48
Green Mile -- nm - oblique Mar 1, 07:48 13
- I haven't seen this. should I? -- nm - sp commander amanda jones Mar 1, 07:49 12
  - If you haven't read the book, try not to get spoiled. -- nm - mara Mar 1, 08:21 1
    - Agreed. And make it a priority to see it. Not what you would expect it to be. -- nm - Spawn Mar 1, 08:22
  - immediately -- nm - Epiphany Mar 1, 07:53 3
    - MCD is fantastic in it -- nm - groiny Mar 1, 07:57 2
      - perfect casting -- nm - Epiphany Mar 1, 07:58 1
        
        it has been so long since I watched it, I should watch it again soon. -- nm - groiny Mar 1, 07:59
  - me neither. Never got around to it. -- nm - Diva Mar 1, 07:50
  - Laws, yes. -- nm - Spawn Mar 1, 07:49
  - Yes. Yes you should -- nm - oblique Mar 1, 07:49
  - Yeah, it's good. -- nm - Jim Mar 1, 07:49
  - I thnk so -- nm - groiny Mar 1, 07:49
  - you definitely should -- nm - decline Mar 1, 07:49
2007 - The Mist -- nm - decline Mar 1, 07:47 1
- This -- nm - amoxy Mar 1, 07:48
1408? -- nm - Ender Mar 1, 07:47 5
- Loved the story, never saw the movie. I'm a bad fan. -- nm - Jim Mar 1, 07:52 3
  - I did not care for it -- nm - groiny Mar 1, 07:55 2
    - it was all over the place.... had some scary stuff with no real rules of engagement. -- nm - colin Mar 1, 07:57 1
      - like alot of his movies, there is potential all over the place, it just never hits. -- nm - groiny Mar 1, 07:57
- Yep. -- nm - Dark Callisto Mar 1, 07:50
Green Mile or Shawshank -- nm - Strongbad Mar 1, 07:43
