edit: is, oops


not the greatest movie of all time, stupid IMDB voters.

The best Stephen King movies:
1. The Shining
2. Stand By Me
3. The Running Man
4. Shawshank Redemption

People are like wow this movie has a scene where they play an opera song on a record player and it has a wistful black man for a lead character. This is ART. But it's just a dumb popcorn flick. And Green Mile is even more overrated for similar reasons but that's not rated 9.3 at least.

that's good. Children of the Corn & Dead Zone are also good. If you want to rate any of those higher than Shawshank then that's ok in my book.

Important tactical realism for if you ever intend to go to prison but don't want a bunch of dicks in your mouth. It's also more Oscar-friendly than that one UFC fight where Keith Hackney fought Emmanuelle Yarborough

Maximum Overdrive is worth watching just for the scene where the kid gets flattened by a steamroller.

The Running Man is a fun, goofy schlockfest but it doesn't really belong in a top four with those other titles. Carrie, probably. Or Misery.

Did anyone else ever see The Night Flier? It's got Miguel Ferrer in it. And Miguel Ferrer is awesome.
