I remember her in MI:5 and she really stole that film. Thought she'd blow up after that, but I can't claim that I remember a lot of big or prestigious films with her in it. Dune might be one of the biggest films she's been in but of course that got delayed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I checked her IMDB yesterday and she's been in quite a few things since MI. It just so happens to be projects I was either not aware off or shit I wouldn't touch with a 10 feet pole (Men in Black International). Good to see her in this and in Dune. She was a real revelation for me in MI:5 so I hope she gets around Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will have to bump it up now that I know she plays a part in it The Wool project seems interesting. I just finished Graham Yost's previous show Justified, so he's earned my attention.

The original wasn't bad just a little rushed. The director's cut has a few more scenes connecting to The Shining and the villains are explained better.

Can’t say that it would improve my overall opinion of the movie however.. but I tend to fault Stephen King for that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same conversation going on in the watched thread but essentially I think the story is bad, in the way that many of Kings stories are bad, and so I’m putting the movies problems down to the source material. I admire a lot of the technical effort gone into Doctor Sleep , but there is a lot I really don’t like. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess I was more looking for an explanation for your "shitting all over the shining" comment which I didn't really get in the other thread in terms of blaming the story on King because the ending of Dr Sleep the movie is not the ending of Dr Sleep the book. Dr Sleep the book is a sequel to the Shining the book, Dr Sleep the movie is a sequel to the Shining the movie. If that makes sense without spoiling anything.

Slurktan Posted June 8, 2021 Share Posted June 8, 2021 Just now, Heartofice said: I haven’t read the book, how is the ending different ? Well the hotel doesn't exist in the book since it was blown up by Jack in the Shining. And of course Danny doesn't die in the book because he doesn't need to blow up the hotel to correct the movie version. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
