This is why Steven King has been on his apology tour. He should have kept his big mouth shut in the first place, he didn't realize he had fans on both sides.

[Kleon]

Go woke go broke. King has been washed up since the 90s.

[rktman]

His “I’m sorry that you were too ignorant to get it!” tour. Say whatever you want. His movie is losing money. Charlie lost his life so.......... No tears for Frankenstein lookin’ dude.

[DarrellZero]

The original story is actually a pretty good one. It is a metaphysical reflection on the futility of life and struggle.

Of course, Hollywood had to muck around with the casting and the ending and basically render it all fluff.

And the rumor is that Steven King’s accident in 1999 has left him unable to write anything. Anything with his name on it since has been ghostwritten.

From the late 90s into the 2000s I must have read at least a dozen or more of kings novels, never knowing his political leanings until I read his 2008 novel “Duma Key” where he made disparaging remarks about George W. Bush BY NAME......that’s the last money that SOB ever got from me.

Sometimes I wonder if getting run over by that van didn’t short circuit his noodle.

As Michael Jordan said, Republicans buy shoes too.

Saw Downton Abbey on Monday. The way divorced people were treated then was extreme. And then seeing Camilla this week .. very interesting.

Consequence Culture at work.

[Opinionated Blowhard]

I think this one would have bombed even if King went on social media to sing God Bless America while waiving the flag. It looked miserable.

In the case of the short story Shawshank Redemption they actually fixed issues. Never made sense having multiple wardens like in the book.

[discostu]

It’ll turn a profit. It was a cheap movie to make. And remember, King don’t care, he already got paid, for a book he wrote almost 50 years ago. Straight profit for him.

[central_va]

Who is this Stephen King person?

[CatOwner]

These people can apologize all they want. They still believe what they spout off in the first place. This is the same group wjp will refuse the apology from any conservative.

[Flatus I. Maximus]

Gee, what a shame.

[larrytown]

Little stevie seems to have forgotten he’s in the entertainment “business”, and not the post-crap-on-social-media-for-cheap-validation-of-personal-hangups.

[ncalburt]

Desantis needs to throw this evil hate filled creep
off of Casey Key in Sarasota Fl .

This evil champagne socialist left Ca and Maine to dodge taxes .

Let the monster pay his blue state taxes and nightmare crime and rules - regulations .

Drive him out of FL .

[HYPOCRACY]

It was a crappy story to begin with. About torturing kids on a long walk. That’s it.

[Bullish]

Mark Hamill will never get another penny of my entertainment money, neither will Steven King.

[Ge0ffrey]

This is a rip off of that Korean show on Netflix.

[Larry Lucido]

It can’t possibly be worse than “Christine” (the movie, not the book).

The Long Walk follows 100 teenage boys forced into a brutal contest where stopping means death. Each walker must maintain a pace of at least three miles per hour; fall short and they receive a warning. Three warnings, and they’re executed on the spot. The march only ends when a single boy remains alive.

So it's "The Hunger Games" meets the Bataan Death March?

Golly, who wouldn't want to watch that?
