...for a movie that releases next week.
It's a grown-up movie!
I know! How exciting that there is NO animation!
The Dark Tower is based on my favorite series on the planet; The Dark Tower by Stephen King. I'm also awaiting the release with much trepidation.
This epic series delivers so much that I'm not sure the movie can even remotely compete.
I've been having conversations with friends who are excited for the movie and are going in with an open mind. I'm struggling to do so.
So many major things are different. The main character, for example, is completely different visually in the movie than he is in the book.
While I understand this is a "sequel" to the series, I just don't understand the direction.
So, I'm dragging my best friend to the movie, going in with an open mind (as open as I can pry it with a mental pry bar), and hoping for the best.
I'll let you know. I know you'll be waiting with bated breath.
The reason this made the blog is because I get to go out WITHOUT KIDS!!!! I'm so super excited that it's kind of ridiculous!

I liked it but I don't know the book. By the way, can I borrow it now?
