    I think actor Rutina Wesley could put on a great face for the role of Detta Walker / Odetta Holmes / Susannah Dean.

    Same here. It wouldn't surprise me at all unfortunately if It is a huge hit with everyone and DT ends up being dead on arrival at this point.
    How was the final cut?
    Pretty good but I'd remove the scene where Roland and Walter have the dance-off.

    My guess is TDT will be very good, but many fans of the book series will not like it ala ASOIAF/Game of Thrones.

    Heck if the movie turns out very good and makes money, it would be like my favorite team winning the super bowl!. If the movie gets at least a score in the 60's on metacritic. Ill be doing backflips lol. For DT to gain victory over the snobby critics is a big dream for me right now. I just want the series to be recognized. I'm tired of King being lumped in the horror category all the time.

    Of course, if it is successful, the makers will be even more like, "yeah, sorry we paid no attention to the books, but...wait, why are we acknowledging you again?"

    Sadly, in film it really doesn't matter how good it is perceived. The P/L will determine it's future.

    Right.

    Having said that, I still think we're in for an interesting (in a good way) experience.

    No argument here. Of course, I hope it foes exceedingly well at the box office so that they will push forward.

    Man, IT is soaking up all the publicity. Come on Sony! Release the DT trailer. Fight Back! Lol Pennywise has Roland in a headlock right now. Giving him a wedgie. Damn it I wish Warner Brothers had the DT rights instead. At least movie would get some marketing.

    I think they're purposely holding back until the IT fervor has died down a little bit, which is smart. I can see the trailer being released for Easter Weekend. Getting shown with Fast 87 will get it some exposure.

    It wasn't smart at all to plan the film a month before IT. Even worst: it wasn't smart to plan IT and The Dark Tower on the same year...

    Forgive my ignorance, but are both movies from Sony?

    I don't believe so.

    I think this is one of those situations where both projects are too far along for one to wait for the other to "blink".

    Why not? It would only create a buzz for the other film... should it be good of course. Can't see the logic in it not being smart though...

    They both operate on fairly different genres (one is straight horror, the other a sci-fi/fantasy hybrid) so I don't think one will negatively affect the other.

    I actually think that they have all been postponed to rouhgly the same time periode, to profit from the King hype.
    THE MIST prior to them, to benefit from the other King's trailers?
    MR MERCEDES was planned for 2018 and moved for not long after IT.

    I wonder when the netflix movies will be released (GERALD'S GAME but also 1922 altougth we haven't heard of it since it was purchased, beginning of the year? saying that they were gonna shoot shortly after)

    Simple fix:

    "From the mind of Stephen King, author of IT, The Mist and The Shawshank Redemption.. coming this Summer - The Dark Tower."

    Boom.

    Then why bring that Branch Davidian, etc crap up? I mean really do we need to dwell on this? Is that what you're implying? LOL Just wondering is all.


    My birthday is 6 days before 9/11, but don't even think about it folks.
