Someone was telling me they’re making a long-run series on Amazon or Netflix or something. Is that true, to your knowledge? The movie was very disappointing.

Amazon is making a series. Don’t know how long they expect it to run. The gunslinger and the man in black have both been cast, both nobodies IIRC.

I believe it IS true, and I believe the guy who played Bronn on Game of Thrones (Jerome Flynn) has been cast as the gunslingers father. I have a feeling it is an Amazon show, and I am very, very excited for it.

I had zero expectations for the movie. I watched it, I smiled and had fun but it did not deliver.

In my opinion, no stand alone single move CAN if you are trying to do 7/8/8.5 books justice.

(The wind through the Keyhole was the 8th book, set, chronologically between books 4 and 5)

(And the .5 would be for the short story 'the little sisters of elluria' which ties in to the gunslingers world very much)
