Explain what The Stand means without using "God", "The Devil", "Christ", "Good & Evil or Good Vs Evil"...

Explain what The Stand means without using "God", "The Devil", "Christ", "Good & Evil or Good Vs Evil", "Lord of the Rings (or any names from that series)".

Only then will I know if you're an idiot or not.

that parrot is standing on a metal pole

Humanity's last stand

Even if the majority of people on earth die the problems dont really change

Chaos vs Justice

The book was God tier and this TV series was surprisingly good when it was released. Re-watching with girlfriend who thinks its great. Comfy Apocalypse watching.

It means Laura San Giacomo's monster titties.

>Even if the majority of people on earth die the problems dont really change

Uh, I'd say the problems in The Stand are pretty dramatically different than my problems...

a guy who got raped and is angry about it tries to destroy worlds

>should we take the harder route with long term benefits or the easy route with immediate gratification?

same shit, different plague

>god
>good
Can you even read?

>Comfy
WHAT DOES THAT EVEN MEAN

The earth recycles itself, fulfillment in life come from outside technology, humanity will rebuild, nature is cyclical

Calm down fella, dont think its a bannable offence.

There is too many people on the planet. Getting rid of 99% would be a good start. Though there is always the chance something like The Stand would still occur, with some lunatic trying to acquire a nuke.

>There is too many people on the planet.

>I have never left a city or suburban area therefore the entire world is like that or worse!

You seem very angry and triggered. Are you Reddit or Tumblr? How are you finding Sup Forums you low test faggot.

I'm just upset that people aren't following the rules of Sup Forums. They are few but they are important and they keep the community vibrant, friendly, and a safe space for all.

I read the book in 6th grade. I remember loving it..
Never seen the show.. Vegas gets nuked after that insane guy brings the nuke there? killing all the bad guys and some of the main protagonists iirc
randal flagg survives with no survivors

is it any good ? i loved the book especially the beginning , but towards the end the more stephen king'y it got the less it likes it .

>explain a book/tv miniseries that's about telling the classical hero myth in a modern American format that relies heavily on explicit religious Christian symbolism without mentioning hero myths or religion

i always wondered if tom cullen was related to sheemie ruiz in some way

Oh I see you're OP and you wanted people to talk about a book with heavy themes of Good versus Evil, God vs the Devil without mentioning any of those.

That's why you're so butt blasted. Why dont you make a thread about a glass of water but have it that people arent allowed to use the words wet, cold or thirst.

Youre the fucking idiot.

The Stand is a story of the White vs The Red and of those called to Stand against the forces of the Crimson King (or more his proxies including Flagg). It's really more or less just a small tale about a world in the process of moving on.

Jojo

HEY TRASHCAN

Is Randall Flagg and Bob from Twin Peaks the same person?

The antagonist is literally the devil

...

That's not a parrot.
It's your mum and her favourite dildo, she should wash it

I totally spaced with this post. It has nothing to do with god, the devil, chaos, or justice. Basically the Dark Tower is uniting some people to fight randal flagg who is the servant of the Crimson King who wants to tear down the Dark Tower in order to remake all of existence in service to him.

OP you truly are a faggot for crying to the Mods and having my posts deleted.

Fucking kill yourself and the faggot Mod. Sup Forums is fucking overrun by Reddit Tumblr faggots crying for rules and safe spaces.

its that twilight zone ep old man in the cave

This happens when people are in paid shill threads now.
Companies pay gookmoot for 'adspace' to shill a film insidiously- in this case dark tower, and if you make a disruption to this underhanded way of doing business your posts get deleted.
Sup Forums has already covered this place the income streams he gets from google with captchas

The Stand means you are a faggot. Laws yes!

I've noticed the similarities too

It's an allegory to the aids epidemic.

Glorious works of art.

Blu-Ray when?

.......then shows up in the dark tower!

Starring your mom

What do you think happened to the world in The Stand after all the Flagg and Mother Abigail bullshit?

Dont you EVER call my mom Molly Ringwald every again!

Years of tribal warfare.

Peace, then more fighting. Maybe communication with survivors outside the US.

The honkies created a virus that wiped out majority of the population

I don't think so, King just seems to have a predilection to mentally impaired aka "special" persons as characters to put in his novels.

the trailer for the dark tower

Is it regarded as a good adaptation of the book?

NO

Fantastic. Sure it cuts a few things, how could it not? But compared to many it's a fucking miracle,

Randall vs Bill. Who wins?

Yea but what did it mean when King wrote it and not after he retconned everything years later?

I have no idea.

King is incapable of making a decent ending even when he writes a story freeing him of the responsibility.

The first third of the book when everything is falling apart is fucking brilliant.

Then it turns into religious silliness.

/thread

OP you are still a faggot.

It's clearly referring to the most powerful Stand.
