SK has sold out to popular "Green Movement" - very disappointed in Dome

[frisbee]

I think reasonable people can differ about things like global warming. I personally fall on the side of those who believe that science has not established that man is responsible for the warming of the planet. However, I still liked Avatar a lot. SK's politics are more liberal than mine - but I love his books just the same

Green Movement?
Ohhhh!
Hmm, maybe be hittin' that green beer justa wee bit early ain'tcha?

I don't understand why this is called "selling out". And I didn't realize there was a "popular green movement". Guess I've been living under a dome...

Christ spoke of hope! This book offers little. Aliens and girl in flashback showed no pity. Only indifference.

2nd point-There is a difference between being environmental conscience and just trying to be trendy. The issue is not as black and white as you are trying to make it.

People read 'In to the Wild" and thought is was a book about the saving the environment.

Hi,

No, it's green.

And what an appropriate day for it, happy St. Patrick's Day.

Long days and pleasant nights

Comments are not surprising coming from the Whiskey capital of the USA. Slip some more for me!

Excuse me, but I don't have the slightest idea what you mean. It is a book of FICTION!! If a story is MADE UP

[ms.darkside]

MY bad, I hit post too soon,

The story is made up!!! How the bloody he// could he be anti anything??? This point has been made before but I will reiterate, I love dogs, Mr. King likes to put them to their end. That doesn't make him an animal abuser.... jus sayin.

If this "GREEN MOVEMENT" is so very trendy, then that would have to mean I've been unbelievably hip, cool & with it for over thirty years...oh wow man, how groovy.

Or or or OH MY GOD!!!! I've Been A Freakin' Trend Setter For All These Years!!

Hmm, and it never once got me laid?

Dat ain't right.


You may harbor some misguided delusion this is some kind of social fashion "trend", but you would be mistaken...greatly mistaken to be even more accurate.
It has simply taken time for the propaganda (speaking of uhh, movements) to start to fade and the reality to finally set in, in some of the right places.
Thought to be honest, if there are those that take an interest in such things like, oh I don't know, The Planet, just because they think it's the cool new thing, well that's cool too.
It's my belief education should be like that, cool & groovy that is.
(oh, and I've read "Into the Wild", good read...and?)
Erin Go Bragh!!!
...what an absolutely perfect day to talk about Green, thank you my friend!!!

I have been a fan of SK for thirty years and have read almost all his books.

Maybe I have just out grown SK but this book was a major disappointment, SK apeares to be pandering the the current trends. Under the dome is Anti-Christian....

So to sum up....you are surprised that a Stephen King novel had a bleak ending, and that King would use a self-righteous charlatan as a villian.

Really? 30 years?
