Yeah. It's those guys. I'm not sure how I feel about it. Being new to the series, I can't say I'm an old skool die hard fan, but I just don't think it will work. Unless they have an insanely huge budget, and make each movie really long I don't think it will do the books justice.
On the one hand I like this whole "Take big epic books and turn them into a long series of movies" thing, but the title here implies that they're actually somehow intending to compress all seven books into one movie, which is utterly impossible. If they'd named it "The Gunslinger" or something like that, I'd have some higher hopes but even then, it's not like The Gunslinger is the best of the books. Sort of an unfortunate place to start.
IMHO, this would work a lot better as a TV miniseries, like SciFi's Dune miniseries turned out, and like how HBO is doing Song of Ice and Fire.
