Dear "The Mist", Fuck You!: A Review of the Biggest "Fuck You" Movie of 2008

Is it even possible for a inanimate reel of film to flip someone off?

I dunno but from reading this I think they managed it.

LOL, I liked the movie, though I had not read the novella. The ending was shitty, however.

I know I'm replying insanely late to your post (found you from sf_d;)) but yeah. My mom was so excited for this movie because she loved the novella and was horribly disappointed in it. I'd read how it ended and when I told her she wanted to turn it off.

I don't think I could ever be truly satisfied with any of his books made into movies. There's always going to be some crucial part missing.

Apparently a "Dark Tower" series is in the works, and if they fuck my Roland up, I will be so very very pissed.

Feel free to add me if you want :)

I hate when people act like his writing is beneath them. I had a friend who was constantly going on about how horrible authors like him were. Of course, she was a terrible writer;) I hope that does turn out good. I once got to do this class where I got to compare movies to the books they were based on. I did all his movies;)

And I will. I'm always too shy to ask people lol.
