Also he needs to get off his rear end and finally give us that drat lamp monster book. No, no, you definitely got the opposite or screwed. King may have his highs and lows, but I don't think anything he's written has been as bad as the Dean Koontz Frankenstein novels.

I could have lived with Disney's The Dark Tower if they'd just put the lobstrosities in the movie. And I don't mean a blink-and-you'll-miss-it cameo, I want those dim-a-chum ded-a-chuck assholes front and center.

Tom Guycot posted:Dang, I sure missed it. Where the heck did the lobstosities show up? Supposedly (according to the director) you can see one on ice in the background of the Dixie Pig, but I didn't see it. Man, I was mildly entertained by the movie when i saw it because i was drunk and had very low expectations, but what was Stephen King's excuse?

Now is the PERFECT time for a big-budget Hollywood remake of The Dead Zone.

I just got out of It 2 and enjoyed it. It's not as good as the first one and the ending is a bit meh, but I'd say it's a solid B, B+ to the first movie's A. It was hilarious, though, that the Losers kill Pennywise by literally bullying him to death. It's been a while since I read the book, but I didn't remember that happening. The two big disappointments for me were Derry doesn't get destroyed in the end and everything involving Henry Bowers felt so tacked on that I was like "What? That's it?" when he got killed. Again, it's been like 10 years since I read the book, but I don't remember it being so anticlimactic. It's fun, but not as well put together as the first movie, which is kind of a shame because it still has so much of what made the first movie so much fun. It just doesn't come together quite as cohesively.
