Ron Howard and Universal plan to bring The Dark Tower to the movies and the small screen with three movies and two TV seasons to bridge the gap. The full story is here

I am definitely interested.

I'm interested, but only if they promise to completely rewrite everything after Wolves of the Calla.

I'm definitely interested....

I must've lost interest or become distracted, waiting for King to finish the series....did he actually finish it? I drifted away from King after Rose Red and Delores Claiborne and growing tired of waiting for the Dark Tower. Of course, The Stand is my all time favorite.....

King Movies never do him justice...."Here's Johnny"...got close.

If he did finish the series, I'll wait for the movie to find out what really happens. It's fortunate for me, usually movies are let downs for book readers.

I thought Song of Susanna was pretty lame, but the final book was good.

I think they should just make a movie out of Wizard and Glass and Wolves of the Calla though, because they were the two best. That's all you need, really.

Wizard and Glass could make a pretty awesome movie.

And I like the idea of movies with supporting TV seasons. I would vote for more of those.

Red/Green/Blue Mars would be cool.

I liked Eye of The Dragon,

Of course, like The Stand, there was Randall Flagg.... if only a line in the book, admitting another name.

King's novels have one nemesis....Eye of The Dragon defines him.
