if they could do it right,,, it would be amazing. Marvel comics has done a great job with the story and i hope that Ron H and King + studio can make this happen for us fans..
I will be so angry and let down if they fuck up this movie. I always thought Hayao Miyazaki should make a movie just based on the first book, to capture everything.
I think the people that voted this down or disliked it are people that never read the 6 books...yes i know there is seven books i read em, but songs of susannah didnt need to be its book im a huge stephen king and i know some one will agree that it couldve been just one long chapter (songs of susannah) like he has done in many of his books
@shallbeknown Randy couture is a fighter. not an actor. it would be like casting the guy that played big bird. he sucked in the expendables and he would fucking kill this movie. btw that was a really good comeback. douche
@LappyMc You think? Maybe she is. But in the book, didn't you have a hard time nailing down just how old Susanna is? I think Stephen King did it that way on purpose. We know she is older than Eddie who is in his twenties but not how much older. Also, Detta is very world wise. That kind of craftiness comes with age. I think you want her a little older so she can pull of both personallities. But I do see your point....
@MrOohSix I think maybe I'm biased by the pictures in The Waste Lands. She looks like early 30s in them. The more I think about it, though, I can see her playing Susannah. Good call.
No true fan would make a movie of this series. A true fan is inferior to it's complexity and it's impossibility to do so. The fiction is way too intense for it to be real, or to be made into a strict peice of visual art but it feels so real when reading the words to the books. We all understand the complexity to make the visual art universal. Can it really be done?
@Ghaiyst I say yes but they'd have to use animation like Beowulf and it would have to be a series of movies. The Gunslinger tale is way to long to do it justice in one setting. I would want them to take no shortcuts either. Do it all and do it right. Right down to the pink monorail!
@MrOohSix I understand what you are saying and I completely agree about it being a series of movies. I just think the someone else will disagree and a general consensus that correlates highly with the other 7 or 8 billion possible opinions (or how its perceived) will need to also exist. IDK how that can be possible, but I also think that the dark tower movie should be very gothic. But you may disagree with that.
@Ghaiyst Actually I agree completely. It is Mr. King after all and overall it was a really dark tale. But to your original point, no medium other than a book would really do it justice. Mayhap it is best we leave it alone. Tis better to make no movie than to make a crappy visual to a legendary read. Besides, true tower fans would go see it just to pick it apart. I know I would.
there shouldn´t be a dt-movie anyway. fake-ass hollywood fucked up each and every stephen king-novel yet & no real fans would like to see these dickheads raping the dark tower.
Waste of time watching this so called trailer crap.
Real problem is Universal they are too cautious. When the budget is too tight or using a less qualified director it will be a waiste of trying. Another risk is Universal rewrinting the script. Messing the story line of the writer will kill this project.
@Legionbass19 I'm pissed too. The project is not safe enough for Universal even if more than 30 million copies of the series are sold all over the world. I hope that this project is not doomed.
Ron Howard is already screwing up, Javier Bardem? What next? A white Susannah, an Asian Eddie, and a black Jake... Stay true to the vision Ron, you have forgotten the face of your father!
I absolutely cannot wait for this movie! But then again, It will probably be like "The Lord of the Rings", ten years from now I will wish it had never been made!
Hace unos días se le vio en el Boulevard de Hollywood, como simple acompañante de su esposa, la despampanante Penélope Cruz.
Pero ahora el nombre de Javier Bardem regresa a las primeras planas por mérito propio, gracias a un contrato para protagonizar un proyecto cinematográfico basado en “The Dark Tower”, una seria literaria escrita por el famoso novelista de suspenso y terror Stephen King.
@MistressItami Mmm-hmm not mind you Clint is getting up there but if he can't be Roland, he could at least direct the film. I think Viggo Morterson from Lord of the Ring would be a good choice for Roland. Man In Black maybe Daniel Day Lewis.
Hey now. Nick Cage doesn't suck one tiny bit, but no way in hell should he be the gunslinger. Maybe... Maybe Walter/whateveryouwannacallhim, but not Roland.
if they could do it right,,, it would be amazing. Marvel comics has done a great job with the story and i hope that Ron H and King + studio can make this happen for us fans..
