I want to see it, but since having kids we never get to theaters. Once it's on Redbox or whatever I'll check it out.

I'm not sure what the intentions are for this movie in conjunction with the books. I've read the series and enjoyed it but unless this has a very open-ended conclusion to where sequels can be produced, I see it as an uber condensed version of the series. Which is something I can't really get behind.


Apparently it's a "sequel" to the book series... Sort of... (if you know the ending you know what I mean):

(if you know what that means - well... you know what that means)

Because everything has to be about race, right?

i know the movie takes place after the books. i just wish they were more upfront about it in the trailers. or give the the movie a second name like Dark Tower: Darkness rises or something like that.

I'm just worried a lot of people who read the book will say that it not like the book at all. Or new comer will start to read the book and figure out that they are two totally different things.

On a different note, Wizard and Glass is probably my favorite of the series.

That probably was the best one. Second best might be The Gunslinger. And then maybe the last half or so of The Dark Tower.

The rest... I can sort of take or leave depending on my mood. It's a far more interesting series in concept than it is in execution.

I wouldn't even say it's the best example of a writer slowly interweaving every book they've ever written into a massive overarching continuity after the fact - Asimov got there first and did it way better.

Thiiiiiiis.

I hate shortened compact movie adaptations. A.K.A. most of them.
