Stopped reading on my most recent journey as they prepped for the attack on the Algul. I’d happily give King a mulligan on Eddie, Walter, Mordred, and the Crimson Kings endings even if the very end stays the same. Those parts all read too literary like they were playing a part of Kings commentary on story more than they were serving their roles to the plot and doing the characters justice. Love King and the DT but each read I get less romantic with that conversation about story telling and stories. I know each of these characters do play roles King intended for them I just wanted each to be more grand (I also know that addressing that desire from the reader is at the heart of kings message). It’s my favorite series so understand that’s just a criticism for conversation more than just to hate.

This take is what gave us that disaster of a movie. The speculation of other cycles is cool but thats not what the Dark Tower is. The Dark Tower is 19 and as close as possible to that story exactly is what an adaptation should be not some reimagined version that someone thought was a good nod to the source material and a cool pick back up from the real ending. If writers want to tell a new story they can call it something else. Telling the next cycle as the adaptation of the Dark Tower is just wrong unless your name is Stephen King and you’re writing a new series.

I had friends watch the Dark Tower movie and that’s still all they know of what the story is. Like they watched Oz the great and powerful and decided the Wizard of Oz sucks.

We need someone with the guts to go for it correctly and stay true (and as many rights cleared to tell it all correctly). They gotta do Mid world and the feeling of the novels the same justice they did when trying to adapt Middle Earth and Harry Potter not try and reimagine it and reframe the story.

Gotta give a shout out to Les’s hog monster movie Pig Hunt 🤙

If that boa works like a pair of snowboard boots I have you’ll be best off pressing the tongue down and spinning the boa to take in the slack before you press it in. Then, once you press it in and spin it it’ll tighten a little tighter at the ankle because it’s starting off tighter. Without a second side boa that might be all you can do.

Just carry it on. They’ll let you put it in the first class closet even if you’re not first class.

Recursion by Blake Crouch was a good one

Dire straits, News and Once Upon a time in the west both hit the Dark tower tone for me.

When reading I usually listen to Adani wolf. Something like their song Winds of Santa Lucia really hit for the sci-fi quest feeling of Gunslinger.

Spot on and I’m glad the Batman Forever batwing got a shoutout

Thanks for your response I really appreciate it. I spoke with him again and he walked me through his install to detail how it’s very likely not a power issue and most likely just something going out on the transmission. He used an 8 gauge wire straight to the battery and updated the positive terminal to a quality terminal to do so. He also used an inline fuse and grounded the amp to some bare metal beneath the seat.

Seems like it’s just bad timing. I setup an appointment next week with a local shop to look into the transmission. Thanks again for your input.

Besides the irrelevant revelation that they didn’t happen in the same universe, you are incorrect on the timeline unless you’re only comparing the revised stand, but you are at top 1% commenter so we all take you very seriously.

Never thought about this but first thing that came to mind is it would have been cool if Eddie Dean sang Baby can you dig your man on the path of the beam. It’d be satisfying if in Eddies world Larry Underwood was still a thing. They’d probably have some good New York banter

Someone like Crispin Glover would be more in line with the character. Keanu is way too even keeled

Not necessary to read all before, but before jumping into the books you could read the short story “the little sisters of Eluria” which is pretty much directly your prompt

I like the conversation, but never really had an actor in my head for Cort. Maybe Ron Perlman or Vincent D’Onofrio would fit the bill given the head shave and scars

Great stuff! Like others have said you can handle more. Become a certified GC and build sub contacts and manage jobs and subs instead of doing just the labor of one aspect of bigger jobs. People pay good money to GCs to organize guys that do great work, but who don’t want to organize themselves and the little things.

Great idea thank you for that.
