So apparently it's too risky for the studio, so instead they are going to use the money for the project to keep making shitty sequels and childish comic book nonsense. Hollywood is a bunch of greedy pussies.

'Wind through the Keyhole' set to release 4/24/2012 -- cant fucking wait! Somewhat related -- apparently WB signed up Affleck to direct a feature adaptation of The Stand. I actually dont hate that idea at all.
- new book?HijoDMaite
- yup -- King is calling it no 4.5 in the series. Just kind of fills in a bunch of stuff rather than upset the existing storyline.ridg0026

Its much shorter than I thought or hoped it would be, at just over 300 pages. But shit, you just fall right back into the language of it and it really does bring you right back, at least for me (pardon the cheese). Its crazy how everyone tries to pick the actor they want to play who, but its been five years since I finished the last book, and they all still look the same in my head.

Apparently it's back on. For real this time, and they already offered McConaughey the lead.
- That works for me. Will surely bring on more quality actors, too. He, more or less, looks like a less haggard version of what Roland appears as in my mind.formed
- Never mind, w/ dramatic lighting he looks haggard, add a little mu and we are good.formed
- I think Rick from Walking Dead is more appropriate looking personally.monospaced
- Not bad either, but MM has a swagger that goes well with the women parts better, imho (it's been decades since I read it, or whenever it was out)formed
- same... when I read it, it was clear that King was envisioning Clint Eastwood.monospaced
- Yup, if he was younger he would be perfect - charisma, endless attitude and a "I don't give a fuck" persona that no one can matchformed
- that's Matthew???? fuck I thought it was Christian Bale on first glanceRamanisky2

- Can't wait! I refuse to watch trailers, though. Been looking forward to this for decades.formed
- Sadly this looks like it could be pretty bad. Was hoping at least for some more interesting visuals based on that poster above.yuekit
- Spoiler Alert: Matthew McConaughey drives away in a Lincoln at the end.stoplying
- Hoping to be surprised but preliminary judgement looks like your standard summer filler.dorkKn1ght
