The more i think about it, the more a cartoon-style series (anime or not) would work really well. And as its fake and artificial anyway, there's no real harm done to the images we have in our heads, plus they would have more screentime flexibility.

There's some theory that http://www.ethanhaaswasright.com is a viraal marketing campaign for that movie, though Abrams denies it. http://slusho.jp
is most likely connected as well. There's a lot of pages dedicated to theory on figuring out what it is. Some folks think it is a Cthulhu movie.
There's one hole in every revolution, large or small. And it's one word long.. people. No matter how big the idea they all stand under, people are small and weak and cheap and frightened. It's people that kill every revolution.
I didn't realize the youtube teaser trailer with Clint Eastwood wasn't real. I was all excited!
The Tardis (Time And Relative Dimension(s) In Space) duh!

The only movie that is a worthy "almost" adaption is In The Mouth of Madness..inspired by Lovecraft. One of my favorite horror movies.

Hey CK,
my tattoo, the symbols are from the great book
There was a movie, I think it was a 80's movie, but I can't remember the name of it, but in was about Lovecraft, er, one of the stories.

Seven movies. The last time I read the series I kept thinking of it as a movie in my head. I could easily think of things they need to focus on, things they could get away with cutting out, and all that good stuff.
Is that the one with Sam Neil?

The idea of having some awesome Dark Tower movie is so exciting. But then I think about how easy it would be to mess it up. There could be one bad actor, one scene cut out that would ruin the whole thing. Oh! I'm so torn.
I think it COULD be awesome as a series of movies but I do not see them making seven. I know you would have to cut a lot but I think four might be best. Maybe you could combine 1 & 2, 3 & 4, and 5 & 6 and leave 7 alone. Of course, since 3 & 4 are so long, the time in Mejis would probably be a much smaller flashback.
Everyone should send Peter Jackson copies of the Dark Tower books and hope he reads and likes them. Just kidding, but I do think it will take someone who loves the books like Jackson loved LOTR to make the movies great. Maybe Abrams is that person. Maybe.
BTW, I have titles for three of the four movies:
The Dark Tower: The Gunslinger Draws Three
The Dark Tower: The Waste Lands, the Wizard, and the Glass
The Dark Tower: ? (this one is harder, maybe just The Song of Susannah since her story is very key in WOTC anyway)
The Dark Tower
