The Stand

I like to read.

I really love that movie...it is just such an undertaking to watch!

Just started the second part.

I am still watching this and flipping back and forth to LOTR in HD on TNT.

M-O-O-N that spells boob.

Me fail english, that's unpossible.

never saw it, never read it.
i guess i should...

read it
the book's much better

There's at least one good reason to enjoy the movie.

SPOILERS! (Click to view)

She scares me.

Them eye brows are intense... I got this on DVD think I'll start it up...

Focus on the boobies and you'll be fine.

Yes ma'am.

I watched this on DVD the other night, and I miss Niobe so talk about it!

Boobs=Win

I didn't really like it. Besides being painfully dated, it was pretty cheesy to begin with. I wouldn't mind seeing a remake, either as a movie, or as another miniseries, but maybe on cable so they wouldn't have to tone it down so much like they did the first time.

Loved the book though.

Didn't the SciFi channel do a remake?

Actually, it was "M-O-O-N", that spells pretty much everything except 'moon'.

I think this is wise advice in all aspects of life.

I don't think so.

I liked what King & Straub did with the M-O-O-N character in The Talisman better then the character in The Stand . Made him a little less stereotypical . The Stand is ok , but I really prefer the book also . If you've read it , you may enjoy Swan Song by Robert McCammon . It's in much the same vein , but even more over the top .
As far as It goes , once again I really preferred the book . And I really enjoyed King writing about the kids more then the adults in it . I think he generally does a better job of reliving childhood then adult life most times .
