It's news to me as well! The outline in the first article looked promising too. (The second link seemed to take me to a completely different article.)
Mixed feelings. A faithful series would have...
Heh. Really good point about the 'throwing shoe' bit. I felt he was way nitpicking a lot of those points though, but it was amusing, overall.
Disappointing film aside* it looks like they've put together a good Blu-Ray release. Very promising extras there.
*And I did like it.
Spoilers for film and novels:
Yes, I noticed that. I wonder if that means he remembers his life in those cycles though? (Not necessarily the same thing.) If he does it would explain his more...
If the cinematic/televised series continues to build on what we saw in the film, let us hope that the creative minds helming the project considerably expand plus improve upon the foundation.[/QUOTE]...
I finally saw the film yesterday. While it would have e been nice if they had made it closer to the novels (and I'm not sure I accept this is the final loop ) I enjoyed it.
So, it could have been...
I will still do so. Good or bad, I think it'll be a worthwhile venture.
It premiered in the UK yesterday, although I've yet to see it. Hoping to see it next week with a friend.
It's not promising Lilja doesn't like it. (I didn't read all the review as I noticed it...
I guess one could argue that as Roland had the horn, after the reset in the novels' cycle events in the past before the Mohaine desert could have changed as well. Not that he was actually sent back...
I was wondering why the barrel would rotate. On reading further I realised they were referring to the cylinder...
I amazed at how metal-like the rubber replicas look. I suppose they used them for...
Well everyone has different tastes*, and ideas concerning what makes a good film, don't they? ** Roll on the 18th when I find out which tet I'm in.
*Says Sai Statedeobvious.

Hmm. I didn't watch all the review videos, as I don't want to be spoiled*, but so far this does not look good at all. My feelings are kind of mixed, as I wasn't too sure there should be an adaptation...

I'd say a farm boy named Walter Padick begs to differ, Matt. <_<
Yeah I know... probably hasn't...
So... Walter wants Jake as a Breaker in this version, eh? I didn't think his power was high enough to qualify for that...
And 'shine' instead of 'touch'. Hmm.
Not a big deal. I just wonder if...
I saw the trailer at the cinema before Spider-man:Homecoming yesterday. Shouldn't be a surprise, this close to release, but it's nice to see it being advertised here in the UK. (I can't say if there...
I'm pretty sure MIB makes reference to his awareness during the palaver in "The Gunslinger", no?[/QUOTE]
I seem to remember a comment he makes suggests that. I wonder how much he is aware of his...
Are those last two posters Jae Lee art? It looks reminiscent of the comic books style anyway, obviously incorporating three characters' likenesses. Nice touch!
Major Dark Tower cycle spoilers:...
While I agree the Tower was his main focus, that didn't stop him blazing away when he saw Walter near the tunnel. Sure, it came across as Roland going into Gunslinger autopilot, rather than...
'char' is guiding him? Death is guiding him? Maybe he meant 'ka'.
I find those posts comforting, however, particularly the part about approaching the Tower the right way.
