    Re: What would be motivation of Aliens?

    This quote by Arthur C. Clarke is very poignant to the story too:

    Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic.

    The characters in the story (and we, the readers) think...

    Re: A Dark Tower Soundtrack

    How about some actual, especially created score? I hope that, whenever (and if) the movies are made, either Christopher Young or Marco Beltrami get to do the music. Both are capable of writing for...

    Re: Thoughts on Wizard and Glass

    To be honest, I thought it was a great read the first time I read it. But the second time, the "romance plot" began to drag a little, I thought. I hope that was just because I'd read it all not long...

    Re: About time for another new collection?

    It would definitely be nice to see all the short stories that haven't gotten their own release, bundled together. I mean, I understand the reason for including a new short story with a newly released...

    Re: Your latest Stephen King related purchase...

    Yeah, so far I haven't been disappointed with King's short stories either. They seem darker, most of the time. Especially the endings, which don't always have to be proper closure in a short story. I...

    Re: Your latest Stephen King related purchase...

    Since I have recently decided to only buy King's novels in the American hardcover edition, I decided to check Barnes & Noble and see which novels they had in store. Well, apart from the few ones I...

    Re: Who is Carole Danner?

    Well, IT was always there, even before the town of Derry was built, but I guess that's not what you're referring to :D.

    I think quite a bit of the novel is already dedicated to the history of...

    Re: The Shining: Book vs Movie?

    I'm both a huge fan of Stephen King and Stanley Kubrick, so the aversion between the fans of both people is something I'm definitely not a part of.
    Is Kubrick's version completely faithful to...

    Re: bit of a slog !

    It's definitely a love/hate relationship most readers have with it. I happen to love it. It was one of the first "recent" King novels I read, and I actually cried while I was reading it. I don't...
  10. Re: Which do you prefer? the movie or the novel?

    Always? I'm afraid I have to disagree. Sure, novels can (and often do) go into great detail in a way that's impossible for a movie to do, but film has the advantage of quickly telling where and when...

    Re: Remake The Green Mile

    That's the point I was trying to make. If you try to replicate the book, it will only be more disturbing in the end. Either because it's a replica, or because it misses the point. Thankfully Darabont...

    Re: Remake The Green Mile

    What, are you kidding? The Green Mile is one of the best adaptations ever (not just Stephen King), and a great film. You should stop expecting a carbon copy of the book, when you're watching an...

    Re: The Stand Deluxe DVD

    Check the 'Set Up' menu. Otherwise you should try changing the audio while you're watching the episode.
