If you thought that was good(I didn't), then you'll be amazed by HBO's "Rome"! Superb experience

On the subject of Stephen King movies, I also liked The Green Mile and The Mist.

Saw Dangerous Game last night, don't waste your time on this one, I thought it's editing was a horror and Harvey Kietel's flubbed a few lines. His wife's acting was pause and wait for his lines, very bad.
Although if you like Madona she does show her two talents.
And yes (Stephen) King is King.

Nice! Exactly what this thread was meant for! What did you watch, and is it worth a poop! Thanks
stand by me, based on another novella by king, is a coming of age story about 4 young boys who trek into the maine wilderness to find the body of a boy hit by a train. heart warming tale of friendship.

The boy was hit by a train, was that revealed in the film? I am sure you're right I just can't seen to remember that part.
Trysts, you have to see that movie, "Shawshany Redemption", Its so real keep you on the edge of your seat

yep, well kind of, they just assumed he was cause he was found near train tracks. the train dodging scene was good, a lot of tension.
