I like this. Clint Eastwood is a bit old, so I'd rather not see a clone. Who could do strong and quiet any better?

It is on the whole probable that we continually dream, but that consciousness makes such a noise that we do not hear it. Carl Jung.
I thought surely this would suck, but maybe not? Elba would be fantastic.

I think he could carry a franchise fairly well. I was hoping for Hugh Jackman though.

The issue with the Gunslinger series is its ending.
It's the biggest letdown since Hamlet 2: Gertrude's Revenge.
Love him, but don't think so in this role.

I liked the ending (at least Roland's part), but then again I also thought the Lost finale was appropriate as well.Originally Posted by Bourgeois Zee
btw, can I recommend Orson Scott Card's novella "Hamlet's Father"? Talk about an absolute twist that changes everything!

I tried to get into the novels but they never grabbed me. In fact, the only two King novels I actually enjoy are The Stand (and I know the connection with the Gunslinger novels) and the Green Mile.
Elba is amazing. Starred in 2 of my perhaps my top 2 favorite shows ever: Luther and The Wire
Stick to your guns.
