I remember reading the novel about a year ago. I really enjoyed it and I'm looking forward to watching this telemovie. It's been in production for about 2 years now and I've been anticipating it.

Originally, I thought it was going to be theatrically released, but then it was going to be a made for TV mini-series, and now its a TVmovie. I love it. I've been waiting for this for a while. It's about time.

Any Dark Tower fans out there?

Tak alah!

Well so far I'm pleasantly enjoying myself. I wasn't expecting a whole lot from this but so far this is pretty good.

Two hours and ten minutes.

At the very end, as life is slipping away and I contemplate how I've used my alloted time on this earth, my shameful mis-use of this last two hours and ten minutes will be even more painful than it is now, which is saying a lot.

Agreed, only I lasted the whole 3 hours, somehow. Without posting any obvious spoilers, when did King become so, so - God entranced? :down:

I was disappointed that our local station didn't broadcast this in widescreen format on their HD channel...

Same here. I stopped watching after a few minutes when I realized it was going to be SD.

I didn't watch the show, but to answer your question: sometimes a near death experience will do that to you.
