From the Stand? I need to watch it again. I remember binging it many years ago. We just stayed in bed for hours watching all of it over a couple of days. Fond memories there.

@CheerfullyCurious That's it ;) Definite one of King's best and the TV series was a total classic....I wonder if this one will ever get the big screen treatment like IT.

CheerfullyCurious · 46-50, F

@SW-User it certainly deserves to hit the big screens . I suspect they are going to do a couple of IT movies. The Stand is even a longer story.

@CheerfullyCurious Yes the Stand would take multiple movies to do it justice so it will probably be shied away from. I haven't seen the new IT but I've heard it was great.

@SW-User it was just okay in my opinion but i listened to the uncut audio book recently and it was still fresh in my memory so im probably a poor judge.

SW-User

@CheerfullyCurious Ha yea books have a way of ruining the movie because rarely are they ever going to compare. I need to read IT again..haven't read that one in probably 20 years.

I see the uncut audiobook of the Stand is over 50 hours long. I prefer audiobooks actually. @SW-User

@CheerfullyCurious I've never been much for being read to...my mind drifts off too easily. I'd have to listen in very small spurts, lol.
