The Langoliers

the one that isnt full of pedos

Stephen King is a smart guy, but I'm not a fan of his films.

There's something weird about his face but I'm not sure what.

>being a fan of his shitty books

King is only good as an ideas guy. He can't write. He can only come up with good concepts while fucked up on cocaine. That's why the movies are always good. Cause someone with actual talent took the source material and made it work.

The mist

Harry Potter

Blistering Idiot

Shawshank.

The Shining

Maximum Overdrive > The Running Man > Carrie > Misery > Stand By Me > Shawshank Redemption > The Green Mile > The Shining > The Dead Zone > Salem's Lot > It (2017) > Christine > It (1990) > Pet Semetery > Cujo > The Dark Tower > 1408

The Shining

that one were they're on that wooden raft and theres a blob creature in the lake and its seducing them to jump in one by one

my favorites in order and you really have to like his books to enjoy the really bad adaptations

Shining (Kubrick)
Stand By Me
Misery
IT (haven't seen new one)
The Stand mini-series (guilty)
Pet Semetary
Cronenberg's Dead Zone
Children of the Corn

That's Tales from the Crypt 2.

no, Creepshow 2 you idiot

The shining. First time watching it I thought it was pretty underwhelming tho.

His philtrum is too long

i was sure that was one of his short stories that they adapted

I liked Thinner.

Fug, I always get those two messed up. They're both EC comics send ups

Yeah, adapted in Creepshow 2

big, smooth philtrum
upturned nose
beady eyes

looks like he has FAS, but i can't remember him ever saying if his mother was a drinker

Tommy Knockers

What was so great about Stand By Me? Kids don't behave like that at all. The child acting was awful, and the drama was barely better than The Outsiders. What a hokey, overrated movie

This.
Too bad the cgi is literally playstation 1 tier
>yfw scampering

>Kids don't behave like that at all
are you kidding? Stand By Me has the most realistic depiction of kids ever

Pic related.

>ywn be a little kid watching Stephen King movies again and actually getting scared by them
Also what's the name of that one with the monster bats in some sort of wool factory or whatever

I don't think most people even realize this is one of his.

Night Shift
also the title of his first collection of short stories and they are really good

Ah yeah it's this one.
Monsters look bretty good and it was surprinsingly gory.

darktower.wikia.com/wiki/Stephen_King_(Character)

Stephen King literally wrote himself as a character in his books as a character that writes the books.

What I find very hard to believe is how understanding and sentimental they are of eachother. They're all 12 year olds who have been bullied and/or abused. Real 12-year-olds (7th graders) are unempathetic assholes and typically wont let themselves get close to eachother like that simply for fear that they'll be called gay.

As opposed to figuratively or hypothetically writing himself as a character? Calm down. If you read all of the Dark Tower books, it actually works out fine.

Rose Red

Just strikes a chord with me

>The Dark Tower > 1408

i honestly really like this movie for some reason. i dont know what it is.

1 of 2 or 3 shows to give me nightmares as a kid

>Are you doing that nasty thing in your room again, user?

So I'm the only person who saw this movie?

my dad and i would always fuck around with the cgi cannonballs and the blind girl

Misery is objectively the best, most coherent adaptation.

I liked it and knew it's context. Wouldn't say it's King's best, though.

I wanted to like it, and I have a hardon for haunted house stories, but it was just too "tv movie" for me.

I really liked The Night Flier. Pet Sematary is still probably my favorite.

Convince me to watch Night Flier.
How much screen time does the vamp actually get

Night of the Living Dummy

Very little, the appeal of it is a cat and mouse game that ends in an incredibly ironic way.

Stop projecting.

>>>>>>>thinner

Pet Sematary

just stay in your basement kiddo

Stephen King's entire TV adaptation career is throwing a bucket of shit against a screen door and having two solid partial turds stick.

Has there ever been a more popular talentless "ideas guy" than Stephen King?

Pet Sematary

The wife's flashback scene gave the film a sense of inescapable tragedy that sort of set the mood for the whole movie.

>That's why the movies are always good.
I don't know about all that, but for sure his best written stuff was his collaborative stuff with Peter Straub.

>not liking the sequel, Thiccer

the TV adaptation of The Stand was good. So was Storm Of The Century

Probably Shawshank and The Shining. Turns out I don't like many of his movie adaptations.

Couldn't shake Dauber's "M-O-O-N, that spells moon!" - it's like he was the same character from Coach.

The first episode of Nightmares and Dreamscapes was called Battleground and it was an adaptation of one of King's stories starring William Hurt who is attacked by a box of little green army men. It fucking ruled. There is almost no dialogue at all other than Hurt's grunts and groans as he fights of this tiny brigade. Really unique television.

you never had friends, did you?

>Not reading his novellas
Shame desu

Kojima, George Lucas, Christopher Nolan

>Tales from the crypt 2
>Bordello of blood
Pick one user

Pet Cemetery, Salem's Lot, Christine and Cujo could use remakes. I'd love to see a Long Walk and The Stand adaption

I read the short story of that

I read this book! They made a movie of this!??

Oh and Rose Madder. They could really cram a lot of YASS QUEEN moments into that.

It must say something that the best King adaptation is one that King never came to terms with and one of the worst King adaptations is the Shining that King had total control over.

The Shining.

>This triggers the King

I had three really good friends when I was 12 that I hung out with at school and on every weekend, and we were all immature pricks who enjoyed picking on eachother. We would never be really honest with or understanding of eachother like the kids in Stand by Me because we were too insecure and cared way too much about our own dumb self images.

It wasn't really like that anymore when we got to high school, but that kind of shit behavior was rampant in middle school. Kids in middle school are generally huge assholes.

Everyone I knew acted way more "nice" like the kids in Stand By Me when we were about age 9-10.

>Pick up Mr.Mercedes
>Old white boomer must stop a fascist white millennial
>Aiding him are a young black genius and quirky feminist

>Sup Forums

>nobody has posted Apt Pupil yet

the guy who played Randall Flagg is a treasure trove of reaction images.

Mr. Mercedes really sucked. The only one worth reading in that set was Finders Keepers and that would've worked a lot better as a standalone novel.

Dark Tower

Finders Keepers has a good plot but it's glaringly obvious that the bad guy is a massive strawman for King's more obsessed fans.

Silver Bullet. It's a great comedy.

Yeah, Lucas is as bad as it gets.

Friendly reminder that Stephen King is a certified cunnyposter.
