Dreamcatcher would be alright without the magical retard and the alien in the guy's head poo poo.

Which leaves, what, a slightly bittersweet story about five four guys who used to be friends as children, but then they grew up - the end?

The ending to the movie was incredibly awesome. It's so rare you see a good "gently caress you audience" ending.

He liked the ending because it ruled so much. The only way to improve it would be to have the director flipping off the audience as a still image while the credits rolled.

This is the correct answer. The books get worse as they go on, and the quality drops considerably after he was hit by the van (in real life I mean).

The "in-between" chapters of It that go over the town's history are pretty boring and I skipped them when I reread the book.

The only good part about the book is the end (well the last hundred pages or so).

The Girl Who Loved Tom Gordon is the worst because he picked a pitcher that eventually went to the loving Yankees. Good call, Steve.

and so far the first book has been all about a pretty typical antihero (?) on a poorly-defined chase through a dead world populated by hopeless people.

This is much better than what comes later. Gunslinger is probably his best book.
