So the trailer for this is finally out. Not sure what to make of it but I'm a little concerned it's gonna suck. In theaters 8/4.
Yeah, though you can't tell for sure with trailers, this one didn't inspire confidence. I like the Roland and Man in Black casting, but the tone feels a bit odd.
DT is a very difficult series to transfer to film because the books change so much in writing style, scope, etc. Just think about how differently the first book feels to the second book, let alone the rest of the books. Of course, since the movie is not going to following the books exactly (for spoilerish reasons), they've got their ready made excuse for diverging. But still.
Not like it's gonna stop me from seeing it, though, and hoping for the best.
