I think mine’s Z for Zachariah. The book is insane. A psychological survivalist thriller between a 14 year old girl and a strange man with unknown intent. The movie is… not this. They changed everything meaningful about the characters and lost all the tension. Hope someone does it properly one day. What’s your adaptation peeve?
Dark Tower
King endorsed it, saying that the director “had not forgotten the name of his father”, which is high praise, so I went in gladly to watch it despite my earlier misgivings. I came out convinced that while King was a great writer, he has absolutely no taste when it comes to movies.
King thinks the Mick Garris TV version of The Shining is better than the version filmed by Stanley fucking Kubrick. Enough said
I can’t believe I had to scroll so far to see this.
I refuse to admit that happened. And I only saw the trailer.
You must be mistaken. No adaptation of The Dark Tower has ever been made. Such a film does not exist.
Eh, I haven’t seen it, but could it actually be worse than the ending to those books.
