Are you guys ready for the "You have forgotten the name of your father" meme?

YES.

It's something I think of already... at least I want people to read the series more. It's fucked up, but for the longest time no one even knew what Dark Tower was... : /

Is the whole Gilead going to be black?
Whole medieval castle full of black cowboys?

they wont. this will be either the next GOT reddit or it will flop

Nah I don't want to watch Nigger Elba's boring acting

Its face retard. Face of your father

You've forgotten ur dads face xD

WE

WUZ

COWBOYZ

Wait, was Roland black, or did they just make him black for the show?

I don't EVER remember them mentioning him being black.

He was white. In fact, it was even a plot point.

WE WUZ GUNSLINGERS AND SHITZ

Who's even in charge of this production? Who's writing and directing it? Is it still Ron Howard?

He's the direct descendant of King Arthur and was modeled on Clint Eastwood, right down to being blonde and blue eyed.

I dont care Roland is now played by Elba

If it had to a be a black guy at least he is a goof fucking actor

I'm more worried they will fuck the movie up and taint the book series...

Please, just one more decent King adaption other than The Shining

Mulatto here. I'm sick to death of all the forced dogshit in movies and tv nowadays, but on the other hand: Elba is based as based fucking gets, so I'm really conflicted here. Still probably would never have cast him, but it's hard for me to not like the guy.

Reminder that Stephen King is a brainded libfag and no one should watch his adaptations. I'd rather watch Kubrick's epic butchering of The Shining 100 times than a nigger cowboy propaganda one time.

Are they black?

ignoring the casting there is no way Sony won't fuck this up

>black roland
>fine

Only if Detta Holmes is played by a white jewess

I dropped him after sandy hook when he blamed the guns.

For having so many "redpilled" novels he sure is a fag.

I'm a Mulatto too, I'm sick of this forced diversity too.

Another thing

Roland:
>Literally embodies a force known as "The White"
>played by a black man

Will they give him bright blue contacts or what?

This thread reeks of crushed hopes and dreams and general demorelisation. I wonder what lit thinks of the matter

Just look at him, he's clearly semi-retarded with those crossed eyes and no bridge.

They're starting the film in the middle of the story apparently as well.

It never stood a chance

I dont see how the book will translate well into a movie, its basically a long walk with lots of waiting around and little pay off at the end

This and I'm betting on flop 100 percent.
Casting Elba as Roland was just the biggest gimmick ever and King should be fucking ashamed of himself for being such a shameless kike. As soon as you knew Elba is Roland, every idea and hope for the dark tower goes straight out the window.

>at least he is a goof fucking actor
non-typo

...

Apparently this is Lud. In which case they've skipped the best parts of the series...

>Roland DeShane

Shitty adaptation for a shitty pop novel made for normies.

So I'm guessing there will be no massacre in Tull. Or pissing on Brown's corn.

the problem with that casting choice is that it implies they're taking a little too much liberty with the story\the world of the dark tower .

adapting the dark tower into a movie they can either take the plot of one of the books and change it to fit a movie format or make a new story entirely with roland set in his world (think little sisters of eluria \ wind through the keyhole).

casting ac actor that looks nothing like the character in a story where his appearance is iconic and is repeatedly mentioned implies they are doing something else entirely and just using the name of the dark tower .

more like roland desheen amirite

Hopefully they at least include cgi lobsters.

DODACHOK

For those saying this starts halfway through the story, isn't Matthew McConaughey playing Randall Flagg? He doesn't show up again until the last book, does he?

He's playing the man in black.

They're literally the same guy

did-a-chick?

i hope we get to see elba's Dark Tower

it seems more like they're picking the best actor they can get and ignoring everything else.

As casting for appearance has never worked out all that well.

Not to mention the only real complaint about it is a hypothetical where they race-swap (o)detta, which really isn't necessary, as black people hate each other at least as much as they hate white people.

Define "the middle."

As by my reckoning, that would put them on the fucking train

>a junkie, an amputee, a cowboy, a weird dog, and a black cowboy are trapped on a train, in a riddle contest
>cuts to the cowboy
>freeze-frame
>yep, that's me

>no long hair
>starting from the middle and Roland has both hands intact
>probably not even going to show when he met Jake
>probably going to cut most of Wizard and Glass aside from vague flashbacks
>probably going to cut the honky mahfah jokes

Fuck this gay earth

He was literally Clint eastwood

>skipping the best book, the first book, and immediately jumping into the shit part of the series (literally all the books after the first three)

I didn't even mind idea being cast, but it should just be the first book and see where to go from there. Oh well, another shitty king adaption. I'm sure they will even listen to kings consulting, and king ruins everything.

>implying wizard and glass wasn't the best one

Holy shit, he's exactly as described in the books.
>Tall, skinny
>Descendant of Arthur Eld
>Modeled by the author after Clint Eastwood
>Featured in a major plot point with one of the major characters in the book that revolves around Roland being white
>Blue bombardier's eyes
Whoa...

>implying the pace of the story didn't come to a crashing stop for Wizard and Glass

Elba will be fine the rest of the film though will suck.

Can you remind me what the plot point is that involves Roland being white? I can't remember, it's been a decade since I've read the series.

I don't care how bad this movie is; it'll be nowhere near as bad as books 5-7.

It's literally impossible.

During book 2 when Roland is drawing his three, the second is Detta Walker / Odetta Holmes, the schizophrenic. In her past she dealt with lots of racial issues and this comes out in the "evil" side of her (Detta) when she tries to kill Roland and Eddie. A big chunk of that book is her screaming racial slurs and plotting their deaths because they're white. There's more to it, but that's the gist.

Go cry with GoTfags

Muh book

Black cia when?
