Oh, God, they’re trying to make a THE STAND movie again.

Saw the first miniseries, didn’t see the second. The first one was good, up until somebody had the insane idea of actually trying to faithfully reproduce the visuals from the climax. It did not work. Sometimes you shouldn’t show, instead of tell. As for the second one? I’ve heard that it was not worth the trouble of tracking down.

Now they want to make a movie. …There is no way to make a single-film version of THE STAND. For better or for worse, this is a book that was made to be put on television. Probably in a fundamentally flawed fashion. Hey, don’t blame the messenger for the message…
