Well that sucks,it's almost like stealing the name in order to ensure a totally different movie does well.

Allot of books that end up being movies dont live up to the hype but this was one of the worst cross overs ever.

Hollywood sucks... thr dark tower was absolutely horrible

saw the previews and said not a chance, not wasting my time with it, I have read the gun slinger books quite a few times. and previews had nothing to do with the books, saw was crap from the start. I was one that was around as they came out, could not wait for the next book, the last book, was great till the end, will never be satisfied with the ending. but then Kaw is a wheel.

Hahaha that is the best oprning line to any book i have ever read. Ive read allloooooot of books and never forgot that one.

Pops it was a complete butcher job. The whole thing. Where they came up with the idea of how walter was going to destroy the tower is astonishing.

In the movie Jake never dies twice, no way station, the end of the movie never happens in the books, man i could go on and on.

Its been along time since i read the books but do you remember anything about these slaves walter had ? There skin was sowed on ? Dont remember that in the books

Funny a buddy of mine said the same thing about the ending but i kind of felt it was perfect. I couldnt think of a better way to end it. Think about it like this its the tower is his obsession ans his curse

the only thing I can think for what this Walter thing is, are the slow mutants, and they had nothing to do with Walter, they where just a product of a toxic event thats never really explained. first encountered in the rail way tunnel, where he lets jack fall.

or they may have been the vampires in I think book 5, again they really had nothing to do with the man in black. they kept the door to the other world where the breakers where being kept.

if you have ever read the talisman there is a bit of a reference there between the 2 stories.

Just found out that a possible Xena reboot from NBC has been cancelled. No loss, they were going to make her g@y. They teased it in the original show but were planning on going full blown in this one.
