gurl. it is a know fact . . . if you are going to do Stephen king, make sure he hates it and does not want you to do it, or it will fail.

I just got back from seeing Dark Tower and having not read the books I followed along pretty easily. I was also with my wife whom has read the Dark Tower series and she did not agree with the reviews from Rolling Stone.
There may have been a lack of character development but without having the green light on putting out additional movies like (LOTR or Harry Potter) for the series, it is a huge ask of those involved with the film to complete it within a 95 minute movie.
I also did not have a problem with the CGI used. I was expecting something along the lines of Sharknado with the comments regarding the poor CGI.
Lastly thought it was strange that our start time was for 7:19, but I get it now.

Dang, for real? I thought WW was the only good thing DC has done with their new movie universe by a long, long, long shot. I'm actually sad she'll be saddled up with the rest of the JL… because that movie just…. I just don't know.
I still would like to see the dark tower though.
