I hate the xostumes and set designs I saw. They look too neat, too perfect. Like every wrinkle in the suits are made carefully by some stagehand. They look too new. Too clean. Too perfect.

Also, Roland in black is fucking dumb. Black clothes under the sun is hotter than anything.

Look at the man in black's hair. Marten, I think? Anyway, he looks like he's using products and shit.

I don't care about black Roland. He could be asian I would still be okay with it. I'm not okay with the movie looking like some Marvel capeshit flick.

Fuck, I really wanted Clint Eastwood to direct a TDT adaptation. He's a great director, and even though Roland doesn't physically look like Eastwood in the books, he was inspired by him in spirit.

Actually, it does. Black absorbs more rays from the sun than dark blue. Dark blue absorbs a lot, but not enough that it's dangerous/unconfortable. Dark blue creates a layer of heat that protects the body against, well, more heat. Black just cooks you up.

One major aspect to note is that Roland has the Horn of Eld, which means he has already been to the Dark Tower and this is the second cycle

That being said, the casting looks terrible and the aesthetics do not capture the bizarre dark fantasy-western theme of the books.

It's more than the second, Roland has made this journey countless times before.

This is what's so interesting to me. The journey will probably be completely different than what happens in the books, but they have a perfectly valid reason to. Just have to see how it plays out. Maybe they'll incorporate elements from the books to touch on the parallels.

I'm starting to warm up to Idris a bit.

It's a weird case. Originally the Man in Black was a separate character who died at the end of the Gunslinger - and then Randall Flag was introduced in the 4th book. Then King retconned him into being the Man In Black too in the rereleased version of the Gunslinger

So it's pretty much accepted that King just made up shit as he went along, retconning at will, as he wrote the series? I read the first five and it's almost astonishing how the quality drops. I'll probably finish them just for the sake of the movie but god damn Wolves of the Calla was pretty bad. I can't explain it, but the pop culture connections in the first one were so vague and interesting and by the fifth book it's straight up memey. The whole plot just seems complicated for the sake of being complicated rather than letting it actually speak for itself
