Good to know making someone uncomfortable and beating the living shit out of them are on the same level of wrongness.

What the hell are you talking about? Do you just assume everybody is out to get you? Did you even read his comment?

You didn't miss anything. Since then his hard on for magical dogs has only gotten more engorged.

Everything's Eventual, Full Dark No Stars, and The Bazaar of Bad Dreams. That should give you a decent sample of the range of his writing in the last 25 years. His writing is a little sleepier, more reserved. It's strange to say the least, but definitely nothing like The Tommyknockers. The short story 1408 was one of…

James Ellroy is one of the biggest offenders of the "same book" problem. The list of similar plot beats and characterizations is too long to go into here, but stuff like celebrity dick size appears to be something he thinks about A LOT.

Oiled from head to toe, singing soulful classics of the early 60's…

I think they're scared, maybe having some doubts about embarking on this endeavour to begin with.

Yeah people forget because there are just SO DAMN MANY movies and tv miniseries adapted from his work. The bajillion Children of the Corn movies alone dilutes the batting average down to the Mendoza Line.

I always took Mid-World to be a parallel world where scientists screwed with a bunch of timey wimey crap with portals and doors. This fuckery resulted in time and space folding back in on itself, creating a mish mash of different times and places. It's why the geography is so screwy, Lud is supposed to be a version of…

Hell I read it over the summer and I can't remember anything except for the fact that Roland apparently was quite the Ladies Man at Age 14.

I've read that book three times, twice on Audiobook (Read by the Great Late Frank Muller) and I'm STILL pretty hazy on the details of the whole CITGO subplot. Seems like King barely cared and wished the novel was soley focused on Susan Delgado. Roland is pretty much an afterthought in that novel, now that I think…

And a disappointing movie is much easier to swallow than 2000 pages(3 books) of disappointment and confusion. Confusion as in "What in the BLUE FUCK was King thinking?" You know a book is going downhill when you start coming up with dozens of better resolutions than what the Author decided to go with.

Funny, I get the impression that no one involved in this project has any idea what they're doing, and how can they strive for "getting it right" when it seems the point of this first flick is "Let's change just about everything"

That math on Hearts in Atlantis leads one to believe that you didn't care for Low Men in Yellow Coats, which…. bah…

People still seem to think that skinny = healthy and therefore = sexy. The pendulum has swung quite far from the days of the Renaissance painters when the larger you were the more attractive you were, Fat was seen as a sign of affluence and success.

Now you done it. Remember the whole ideology game is about simplifying complex issues into "Us vs. Them." The snake eats its own tale and the Chicken is born from the egg which makes more eggs. Just remember, hating people is wrong, unless you hate people who hate other people. But that doesn't make you technically a…

Yeah, and the American Left is a bastion of people in pure harmony working together toward a common goal.

This is what they do around here.

They seem to think so lately, judging by the articles and newswires.
