Yeah, King is nuts, but he's one of my favorites. But I do prefer the movies over the books. The Green Mile, Shawshank Redemption, Silver Bullet, Christine, Salem's Lot, Cujo and Carrie are all classics and favorites of mine.
I don't read any of Stephen King's books anymore, but out of the ones I did read I liked The Shining, Salem's Lot, and Cujo, but my favorite, by far, was The Stand. And, IMHO, no one could have played Jack Torrance better than Nicholson did. The only exception may have been Anthony Hopkins. I could definitely see him taking the roll to the extremes.
Tom Cruise wanted , then Wife, Nicole Kidman to do a Porno documentary of their true life and claim it as mainstream.
I knew King was nuts, years ago. Maximun Overdrive was good.
Yep, there's a docu about Kubrick and that whole ordeal. I think it's called Eyes Glued Shut.
Same as the politicians, the Hollyweird circus trash throws their depravity in our face. Yet, so many refuse to see or acknowledge the truth.
- I love the works of Steven King as a writer meaning I could care less about his politics, religion, 'identity', or anything else EXCEPT his ability to write pieces that keep me enthralled.Great writer, no doubt, but as a person I just can't deal with his far left liberal views. I have passed on just about everything he has done since the shinning. Why can't great entertainers just entertain/write and just STFU
- No offense intended, but I find it a little sad (and wimpy) when someone feels that they have to change what they do, whether it be what they read, going to a movie, what they buy, or other things just because they don't agree with the beliefs or lifestyle of someone else. Might be more of a consideration if one is 'shopping' for a SO, otherwise . . .
One Flew Over the Cuckoos Nest (one of his best roles).
Pet Cemetery as a movie was pretty good. One of the few, in my opinion, where the movie was equal to or better than the book.
