    fuckyeah-unclesteve:

    The queued quote posts for the next ~five months are about 50% Dark Tower.

    I think something like 75% of the Stephen King quotes I’ve posted/reposted have been from The Dark Tower series, lol. Cry no pardon, Gunslinger!

    “My Da’ and Cuthbert’s Da’ used to have a rule between them: first the smiles, then the lies. Last comes gunfire.”

    “We’re almost there, aren’t we?” Susannah asked. “Almost to the shooting.”

    Roland nodded. “And the shooting will happen so fast and be over so quick that you’ll wonder what all the planning and palaver was for, when in the end it always comes down to the same five minutes’ worth of blood, pain, and stupidity.”

    Warner Bros. resurrecting The Dark Tower?

    The Dark Tower has long been linked to a possible big-screen adaptation, but it seems that Warner Bros are now close to agreeing a deal to bring Stephen King’s mammoth fantasy to the cinemagoing public…

    This should be getting so much hype right now. The series is probably the best American fantasy series to date. It beats the hell out of Lord of the Rings, in my opinion anyway. Only thing that bugs me is having Javier Bardem as Roland. I don’t think that jives at all.

    “Fuck you,” Roland said. He did not raise his voice. He might have told Blaine that a little Way-Gog would indeed be very nice.

    There was a shocked, horrified gasp from the overhead speakers— Little Blaine.

    “WHAT DO YOU SAY?” In its clear disbelief, the voice of Big Blaine had once again become very close to the voice of his unsuspected twin.

    “I said fuck you,” Roland said calmly, “but if that puzzles you, Blaine, I can make it clearer. No. The answer is no.”

    Each member of a ka-tet is like a piece in a puzzle. Taken by itself, each piece is a mystery, but when they are put together, they make a picture…or part of a picture. It may take a great many ka-tets to finish one picture.
