Shit movie adaptations of good books

Might be an idea to reopen Devils island to accommodate illegal immigrants.

Too small. We need to re-annexe Australia and send the 5 million HK Chinese that Boris is so keen to accommodate there.

Dunno,it could bring down the price of a take away ?

The Shining was a good film.

And although it was only released as a TV two-part special, The Stand (my favourite King book) was excellent.

Carrie and The Dead Zone were ok.

I liked the original IT as well as The Stand.

Yes I did. I concur

Read the Stand and IT. Were always going to be tricky to make but I liked the originals. I believe they are remaking the Stand but the main guy will likely be black.

There is a strong rumour they are recasting the remake of Mary Poppins using a black actor - the film is provisionally titled Mary Pippins

it will be set in New Orleans in 1912 and Mary will be the home-help who sings for everyones supper. In this version it doesn't end well as Mary is involved in a local Police misunderstanding which results in a city-wide riot and her unfortunate demise. This forms a big part of the films finale, all strings and trumpets.
Not a dry eye in the house and already tipped for next years honours.

The new Planes, Trains and Automobiles has Kevin Hart and Will Smith in it apparently.

No Women and no Trans people......I'm offended

Any one-legged people ?

It won't get an Oscar if not.

White men can't jumps a tad racist. I much prefer white men can jump a little bit. And snow White and the seven dwarfs should be snow sunburnt and the seven heshe transgender short people.

Lady P loves a weepy and was in bits last week when 'Beaches' was on tv. Based on a book of the same name, and she read that too. No mean feat for a northern girl. She says the film was as good. I tried watching it with her but fell asleep after having 24 Estrellas at a bbq.

But that's not to say I'm not a bit of a softie myself and 'Escape to Victory', also based on a 1961 book had the tears flowing. I didn't read the book as it was in Hungarian but I doubt very much if an American POW saved that penalty in it and a Brazilian with a broken arm scored an overhead kick.
