Do you see the clown?!!!

Are you kidding me? The barf-o-rama pie eating contest? The buried pennies that were never found?:lmao:

And for the record, I'm not a big fan of much of the movies that have been made of his stories. He's a much more talented writer. And as I also said, it's nearly impossible to make a 'good' 2.5 hour movie from a 800+ novel. And the Stand was particularly bad. I so much wanted that to be great.

I'm hopeful the Darktower gets produced, but that's not looking good.

Ok, this thread is not about SK and if you want to debate SK in any way you can reach me through PMs and Ill be glad to keep it going. However, I'm putting a stop to our chat here right now.

I'm giving this thread back to mishele, with my apologies, and to her killer clown from outter space...

I refuse to think about the IT clown...I refuse to think about the IT clown...I refuse...crap.

I used to be one of the world's greatest SK fans. Some of his early stuff was just riveting. I read The Stand in two days, while I was home sick, sitting on my bed with my back to a corner so I could see everything that moved toward me, lol.
The Shining was, I think, the first book of his I read...and sorry, but the movie just p***ed me off, it strayed so far from the book that it shouldn't have even had the same title. Probably would've enjoyed the movie if it hadn't been called The Shining. Honestly, it's been so long, I don't even remember WHY I hated it so much, only that I did. The only other movies of his I've seen are Stand by Me and Carrie. Well, Shawshank Redemption, but I hadn't read his story from which it was based.

When he started writing cr*p about demon-possessed cars and Saint Bernards gone psycho, I quit reading them, my life is too short to read drivel. Went back years later and was pleased to find that he'd decided to become literate again with books like IT and Needful Things. Still, after Rose Madder, I kinda gave up and haven't read any of his stuff since.

That movie was pure 80's gold.

I'll have to read The Shinning. I thought the movie was pretty cool but I didn't realize it was a big departure from the book. Some of the movies made from his work are great but some were just silly, The Mangler was one and there was another one where an old refrigerator is possessed by a demon and traps children.

I just bought The Shining off Amazon....lol I'll find the time to read it over the summer. I'm interested in seeing how different the book is to the movie.....:thumbup:
