minus-squareEponymousBosh@awful.systemslinkfedilinkarrow-up5·1 day agoI love the Dark Tower series and hadn’t seen the movie yet. They dropped Susannah out ENTIRELY? Seriously???
minus-squarecerebralhawks@lemmy.dbzer0.comlinkfedilinkarrow-up4·16 hours agoYes, her and Eddie both (and Oy). His only companion is Jake.
minus-squarejordanlund@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up3·16 hours agoNo Eddie either. The movie is from Jake’s perspective.
minus-squaretheherk@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up4·23 hours agoI agree though with the commenter to which you replied. Just go in knowing it is going to hurt to watch, but in a genuinely entertaining way.
minus-squareEponymousBosh@awful.systemslinkfedilinkarrow-up1·13 hours agoYeah I ain’t watching that. They left out like at least a third of what made the books good IMO. Sounds like a waste of time.
minus-squaretheherk@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up3·12 hours agoA third? It’s one movie. They left out probably 9/10ths or more of all the awesome stuff in the series… but it was still neat in its own way.
