It's on CBS...of course it's safe and boring.

ahh....there it is....the turdfest that was the book is truly rearing it's ugly head in this most recent crapisode.

cause hey......yeah we are gonna die down here if we don't find a way out...but let's shoot the shit while my last match burns out. oh...by the way....how much stuff you think there is around us, including clothing we are wearing, that is readily available for burning? ah the hell with it...let's talk!

good stuff.

King was actually the executive producer of the tv mini-series and I absolutely agree it was OUTSTANDING,finally told the way the author wrote it.

I've never taken the time to research....but I heard a long time ago the King supposedly started a law suit against.....whoever....about the Nicholson version of the movie.

I was very disappointed in many things about it...the hedge animals are just badass, yet left out in place of a stupid hedge maze.....but the ENDING was just so ****ed up in the movie I about blew a gasket. they simply took a ton of incredibly heart felt emotion...and threw it in the trash.

the book & Steven Weber ending just makes you want to cry man! it's so ****ing AWESOME.

Spoiler!

Don't know about a lawsuit but I have heard him say he was very disappointed in Stanley Kubrick's vision of his book.

It isn't that good though.

Well, "popular" and "good" have always been mutually-exclusive concepts...

I actually like it, aside from any scene that Junior's in. Much to my surprise.

I wish they would just kill Junior. His acting is pure shit.

Yeah, he's horribad. I started fast forwarding through most of his scenes.

yeah....it has sort of a guilty pleasure aspect to it. The acting direction is soap-opera-ish, where they deliver a line, and then deliver the facial expression. All of it is a bit wooden - but Keg is right in that Junior is especially awful.

Still, I find myself watching it.

What does everyone think of Britt Robertson?
