>opens in 2 days >no hype whatsoever RUH ROH

>>85788034
The books were fucking stupid, the movie is going to water down those books and make it into a buddy cop movie.

>another Sony flop
JUST

>>85788034
welcome to August, the biggest dumping ground for shit films.

It's like January 2: Electric Boogaloo.

How will niggers ever recover?

It's getting shilled a fair amount in the UK
Seeing ad clips for it in the evenings quite a bit

Probably only due to the popularity of our national bull though

>>85788034
The review embargo isn't till the day of or after release either.

>>85788162

Oh man it must be complete garbage. Was summer always this shit?

>>85788162
no it's not you dumb fucking nigger

>>85788141
Suicide Squad did alright last summer despite being trash.

>>85788187
You always get the occasional trash movie. Hardly surprised, a movie can't do this series justice.

>>85788034
I don't see a reason to support politically motivated movie.

>>85788200
Where are the reviews then??

>>85788212
Yeah, the joker is one of the most popular villains of all time though. Who cares about regular Roland, let alone blackstained nigger roland?

>>85788218

You could turn those books into movies if you actually followed them. The first 3 would actually be good

>>85788249
people were already prepared to hate Leto's Joker though.

>>85788263
A TV series on HBO might be more suited.

>>85788212

Do you remember the hype levels a couple of days before it's release anon? I'm going to go out on a limb here and say Suicide Squads opening weekend will be bigger than Dark Tower's entire run

>>85788141
I don't know why August gets so many bombs, it just does.

Sometimes you'll get a gem. I think Sicario came out in August. It was a good film, but the studio didn't have confidence in it, and it under preformed.

I think District 9 came out in August and was a big success, but it was a new director, with a no-name lead, in Africa. I guess the studio didn't have confidence in it.

Remember this conversation and look at what films come out next August.

>>85788200
Movie releases August 4th in the US.

Reviews aren't allowed to be posted until the evening before or the day of.

>>85788129
I've had a feeling for a while that Sony is deliberately trying to kill its movie side. That's the section of the company that has been bleeding out money for ages now, thus sucking up the profits made from their core business.

>>85788383

There's better ways to kill the movie side than just make bomb after bomb

>THE IDRIS ELBA

>>85788322
Guardians of the Galaxy also released in August and did ridiculously well.

August is so weird I don't know why more studios don't take advantage of it.

>>85788578
How confident was Disney of GoTG though? It had a lot of marketing but wasn't it original projected to do a lot worse than it did? It seems like August is a "not sure how it'll do" month.

>>85788034
How long is this supposed to be? Is it a trilogy or sumtin'?

>>85788322

seems a bit short desu

>>85788805
perfect running time

>>85788727
You gold teeth, gold chain wearing, fried chicken and biscuit eating, monkey, ape, baboon, big thigh, fast running, high jumping, spear chucking, three-hundred-and-sixty-degree basketball dunking, titsun, spade, Moulan Yan. Take your fucking not all niggers and go the fuck back to Africa.

I was just listening to a video talking about how it tested horribly, to the point where execs considered firing the director. Kind of sucks, because the first four books are great.

>>85788034
It's gonna flop hard, which is a damn shame because the books deserve recognition. But I guess its not surprising given how little respect whoever made this has for the series.
King's adaptations are usually complete shit. The man apparently just doesn't know how to say no.

I've never read a dark tower book but I remember fans praising it and hyping up a movie adaption for years.

And now it comes out in 2 days and nobody cares lmao.

guy is ugly so not hyped and not gonna watch.

>>85788669
I think it was supposed to kick off the King cinematic universe

>>85788162
>review embargo the day after release
This would require anyone who sees it in a public theatre to sign an NDA

>>85788162
actually it's today

Maybe hollywood will one day stop injecting niggers into white roles

>>85788727
that was some easy butthurt

Has nobody said anything about the film? Don't vague impressions usually start happening in twitter after a premiere even when there's an embargo?

>>85788034
saw a 30 sec ad for it on my phone while watching youtube

it looks like shit

>>85788973
Apparently that's because the test audiences didn't understand it, which isn't exactly surprising. Doesn't mean for sure it's bad.

huh they are making a TV series as well and it will be a direct adaption of the books.

Should I read those books?

>>85791281
Of A book, specifically Wizard and Glass which is the prequel.

>>85788578
>I don't know why more studios don't take advantage of it

They do, you moron. You mentioned and example. Suicide Squad was also released in August.

>>85791238

If it's 95 minutes long that's easy to understand. The Dark Tower's plotline is ridiculous, even the first book would need a 2 hour film to adapt properly, this is supposed to be a retelling of the first four or something.

The really sad thing is King is desperately promoting the film because he cares more about looking progressive than defending his works. Stephen King uses the words nigger and negro a lot, I think he secretly doesn't like black people.

>>85791477
It seems to be some sort of hodgepodge that will take things from several of the books, but will mostly tell the story of the first. The director has said that the sequel would introduce Eddie and Susannah, so they are somewhat sticking to the script.

>>85788805
It go qwik lik Lamar wit dat tv out da doh.
