Unfortunately, The Smurfs.
Take the candy . . . no, take the books . . . no, take the jewels . . . aahhhh, I can't carry it all.
What?! Who didn't love Maximum Overdrive (ha). I would love to "publish" all the Castle Rock newletters out to a website, but read that it had been tried before, but someone couldn't get copyright...
kingricefan and jchanic --
You guys talked me into it. All 55 issues of newspaper! I let you know when I get them and read what you wrote 25 years ago.
I was watching on ebay the full run of the Castle Rock newletters from the 1980s. Didn't get them though. They just got relisted this morning -- still could snatch them up.
I am sort-of glad. It could never live up to the image in head. Although some of the books (The Stand and the remake of The Shining) I liked the TV mini-series versions a lot, I can't imagine the...
Today, I would delete that announcement about who the actors are going to be for the DT series.
Not a funny joke (I hope, please)
Have read all the novels and loved them all. I bought a copy of Rocky Wood's Stephen King Uncollected and Unpublished. That started me on a massive scavenger hunt. There were (are) many short...
Anne Rivers Siddons in the introduction to The Dead Zone says:
"People who don't like horror stories seems impossibly and blandly sunny, one-dimensional, lacking in the rich and complex salting of...
I think that the people who say things like that are usually not readers and are judging based on the movies of Carrie or The Shining which were bloody and violent. I have often said that SK is just...
I hope a remake doesn't happen. The casting of that was great and it was a great mini-series.
I liked it, but it was not in my top 10 SK books.
When I first read The Shining and Salems Lot I thought they were both really scary - and they are, but scary in the very traditional horror story way. Misery is the one I always felt was the most...
I loved that movie except for the langoliers themselves, but I knew there was no way any TV was going to be able to show the nondescript scary thing that I had pictured in my head while reading it. ...
Were the Bachman books not published in Hardback?
Despicable Me - that movie was too funny.
:sad:I asked for the Kingdom Hospital DVD for Xmas, but nobody got them for me. Guess I'll have to buy myself a late Xmas gift.
Gray, rainy, foggy outside. The upside is that Stephen King was on my mind first thing as I looked out, sau the skeleton on the winters trees, backlit by the streetlights, shrouded in the early fog....
I was so glad to find this forum. With only a few "casual" Stephen King fans in my life, this is great. I do sometimes wonder what feeds the "dark side". He is such a magnificent story teller and...
I cry with a lot of them now. When I was younger, I just thought they were cool and great stories. The end of IT (which I just reread) made me cry. So did the end of The Stand.
I just bought the uncut version of The Stand and reread. It was so great, again. Some of his books I read so long ago that going back to them and re-reading them as a grown-up instead of a college...
From powells.com interview with the Man himself:
King: It's actually a version of a poem I wrote in college. I looked and looked — you know how you do workshops, and they make offprints of...
