They're objectively terrible.

As a standalone movie not being compared against other King adaptations it's an A. Within King's oeuvre it's definitely an S (I should specify Director's cut though).

>>215312579
Langoliers is better than Kings TV Shining.

>>215312676
For made for TV King for me it goes
>The Stand
>The Shining
>Rose Red
>Langoliers
>>
>>215312676
It's close but The Shining is far less cheesy. If you compare it against Kubrick's adaptation it comes off pretty bad but as far as the 90s TV miniseries era goes it's a more interesting watch than The Langoliers.

Also the Wendy in the TV The Shining was a babe, and more accurate to the book.

>>215312728
You're forgetting It, Storm of the Century, Golden Years, the first 2 Salem's Lot adaptations, The Tommy Knockers, Needful Things, and a few more probably.

I think Rose Red is slightly better than The Shining. It works well as a Shirley Jackson homage.

He wrote Carrie, The Shining, The Dead Zone, Salem Lot and The Stand in the 70s

The book is overrated. Too much junk crammed in and it drags a lot.
>>
>>215312814
It's obviously based on when the adaptations came out, dingus.

There's a certain type of man who, as he gets older, basically ages into an old lesbian. It's a very curious phenomenon, King isn't even close to the only guy I've seen it happen to.

This made me laugh because of how true it is.

I was always disappointed that The Breathing Method from Different Seasons never got adapted when the other 3 stories all got good to great ones. The weird gentleman's club it takes place in is one of my favorite things out of his stories.
