Okay. Give me an example of a multi-season Stephen King television show that worked.

Davros1 posted:I kinda wish King would publish a "History" book of Derry, maybe attributed to the work of Mike Hanlon. That would be pretty rad. I’m a big fan of his short stories, so having an anthology-style book about Derry’s history would be right up my alley. The chapter in It that covers the axe murder and gang massacre is one of the best in the entire book, so the proof of concept is already there in the primary text.

The basic synopsis I read somewhere is that André Holland comes back to Castle Rock after a long absence to help Bill Skarsgård, who is in Shawshank on a murder rap he claims to be innocent of. And then, presumably, ~Spooky Steve King Shenanigans~ ensue. But obviously take that with a grain of salt, because I don’t think anything super concrete has been released yet.

I’d really love to see a new King anthology show, drawing from all of his short story collections. I’d be completely fine with them redoing stories that had been filmed before if they had a singular steward behind the production. I’d love to see decently-budgeted adaptions of The Road Virus Heads North or N.

And that was back when we were still on the barter system. A half pound of bologna could take the whole family to the movies.

I’d argue the kids were like, one of the paramount reasons the movie worked at all. The sequel has a rare risk in Hollywood at hand where the adults could end up being the weakest part of the movie, especially if any of them are poorly cast.

How dare you besmirch Harry Anderson’s mustache like that.

Curry’s version felt like an authoritative, abusive adult. Skarsgaard’s version felt like an alien entity’s estimation of what a clown should act like. Both were technically true to the source material, and creepy for different-but-equal reasons.
