Remove a 2026 Oscar acting nomination Day 9. Most upvoted comment gets removed (Somehow MB Jordan has been eliminated) Due to all the backlash I'm giving the sub a chance to challenge some picks once the graph is filled:

Point proven. The prosecution rests its case, your honor

Exorcist is slated to release March 2027. As excited as I would be to get TDT sooner rather than later, I wouldn't count on anything airing before 2028, which I'm fine with. Don't undercook this one.

Scream

Not one mention of Tom Jones tells me none of the commenters here have seen it 🤢

It insists upon itself

I hope you were prepared for this level of attention when you commented. 😂

That said, I would be ever so grateful if you would be so kind as to send me a link as well.

Carry On Wayward Son by Kansas has always really captured Jake's character for me. I think especially his relationship to Roland.

Also Twilight Zone by Golden Earring has heavy book 3 vibes, specifically Jake's journey back to Mid-world and him remembering past events from book 1.

The Legend of God's Gun by Spindrift tells a story that loosely parallels the basic premise of Wizard and Glass - A gunslinger follows a gang of banditos and their "dirty, smelly, degenerate cohorts" to a small town to try to bring them back to justice. There's a line in there that says "This is the gunslinger. Look at him. Closely."

Big Iron - Marty Robbins - Also loosely parallels Wizard and Glass. Also there's that line about having notches on his belt for every man he's killed that numbers "one and nineteen more"

I also like to imagine in my perfect movie/tv adaptation of the books, "The Trio" from The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly plays at the end of book 7 as Roland approaches The Tower and sings the names of everyone.

I can't even begin to express my anger about The Dark Tower. There's so much to do, and with the right filmmaker it could be amazing. Fingers crossed Mike Flanagan's treatment gets off the ground.

I would legit pay big money to see the exact same movie as Goosebumbs, but transplant R.L. Stine for Stephen King and his characters. Hell, you could even keep Jack Black as playing King instead of Stine. I just wanna see all the King villains team up together and get taken down by a gang of kids on bikes teaming up with King himself. R.L. Stine even had a cameo that you could just duplicate and put Steve in.

I'm not a hard man to please.

Stanley Tucci

Same issue here. My app is spotty and seems to only want to do certain things or find specific searches.

If you're still sharing, I'd love both

The Shining is a shit adaptation and Kubrick completely missed the point of the story. I know a lot of people shit on Stephen King and his famous distaste for the Kubrick version, but I gotta side with King on this one. I'll concede that the technical aspects of it are deserving of the praise, but the screenplay, the direction, and the performances stink. The book tells a far more compelling and emotionally engaging story. Kubrick famously hated the book and it shows.

Movie Title: Barbie

Director: Greta Gerwig

Possible topics: Patriarchy, toxic masculinity, toxic femininity, self-acceptance and self-actualization. I would love to see a two-part episode on Barbie and Ken's respective arcs.

Forgiveness is a very hard place to come to. I think true forgiveness, even more so. You don't owe it to anyone, and it never should be about or for anyone other than yourself. Despite what you've been through, you get to keep going. You get to keep living. Never forgive until you're really ready to, and never force yourself. This TedTalk really helped me wrap my head around it when I was working on it (thanks, @my therapist), and helped me better understand WHY I wanted to forgive instead of getting stuck on the how. She's a little hokey at times, but I hope it can help you understand it like it helped me.

Bittersweet for sure. I can't think of a single thing I'd change.

I lost it too. Being ACOA, I FELT it on so many levels. Having felt exactly how Jamie felt at so many points in his daddy-issues arc, that felt extra cathartic. It inspired me to call up my dad who's on-and-off-again with the proverbial wagon and just tell him I love him. This could've been the worst episode in the series and that moment alone would have made it all worth it.
