What movies do you recommend to help me get over my disappointment in The Dark Tower?

Exactly. I couldn’t fucking stand the 11th doctor and that’s what the channel change button is for.

The sad thing is that the big parvovirus epidemic was in the late 70's and yet there are still litters of puppies dying because people just don’t give enough of a shit to vaccinate.

Dunning-Kruger much?

Why, oh why, won’t anyone think of the men?

Nope. I’ve read the series a couple of times and there are only a couple of scenes from the trailer that I could even place. Also I think it’s better to think of it as a re-imagining of the story, it’s misleading that people keep calling it a sequel.

All the theaters within about 50 miles of me only have 3D showings. I’m so bummed! I can’t stand 3D.

And has only traveled 700 millions miles, so still well within the solar system.

I’m in a small town right in the path of totality and hotel rooms here are going for like $1000 a night that weekend (probably a good 10x the normal rate).

Yeah, that’s the one I was going to mention too. Just an Easter egg so it was no problem anyway.

Your comment just made my day.

I agree, not enough kipple.

Yep that’s the Timberline Lodge, served as the outside of the Overlook for the Shining movie.

Oh right there with you. The Neverwhere audio book he narrates is fantastic. Something about his stories just works exceptionally well when read aloud.

I also loved the full cast audio book, and I’m not much of a book listener.

My Dad buys his insulin from Walmart, it’s less than half the price you can find at other pharmacies. Let’s hope when you’re retired and trying to live on a check from social security that you retain your soul and identity while purchasing overpriced medical necessities.

Sour gold bears are the best. I could eat them until my tongue bleeds.

Ha! I love this movie! Also on TV in a similar-ish vein - Galavant.
