Now this something I am so looking forward to. I've read and listened to the Dark Tower series 3 times and they are right up there with LOTR in terms of scale and character. Just hope to hell they do it justice but the actors lined up for the lead makes me feel they are taking it seriously. The Dark Tower http://uk.imdb.com/title/tt1648190/ |

Yeah, I'd like to see this in film as well, hoping they don't fuck it up though. |

Still need to read those books. I heard about the books a while back because a power metal band called Demons and Wizards did an album based on the book, heh |

If you have the time, like say while going to work, then I'd really recommend the audio books. They've all been done really well and un-abridged, plus the naration is top notch. P.s any member that wants to listen to them then drop me a pm and I can send them to you. |

Funny I read about this now as I'm currently listening to the books myself. I'm at the beginning of the fourth book and loving it :) Wounder if they can get Eastwood as the Gunslinger... would be awesome xD Audio books in general are really great since they allow you to preform trivial tasks and chores like cleaning, doing the dishes or walking the dog while still enjoying some good literature ;) Edited for better spelling. |

Oooooo, if you have a copy I'd love to listen to them, I generally read or listen to books on my way to work. I haven't read much for a while but I've just started reading again so an audio book would be smashing. |

Apparently Javier Bardem has been offered the role of Roland! top choice if he says yes |

I only know him from no country for old men, he'd be an interesting choice, I can't imagine him saying no to this though. |

That's pretty good news if that's true. Javier Bardem is quite a large guy though, and I always pictured Roland as quite slender. But hey, I should try to see film adaptations of novels as independent works instead of as literal mirror images of said novels. |

I think rather than the casting you should all be worried that Akiva Goldsman (The person adapting the script) is responsible for some of the most low rent awful screen adaptations in modern Cinema. |
