The Dark Tower. Was so embarrassed that I brought my wife thinking someone could possibly take 8 books and boil them down to 95 minutes that I made us leave a half hour in. It trivialized everything about the books in the worst way possible.
Also, Nacho Libre. Just couldn’t do it. I don’t ding JB for it at all but really bad.
There are bad adaptations, and then there’s the Dark Tower, which was akin to a full palm-open slap to the fans while desperately hoping they could maybe appeal to some movie goers that were unfamiliar with the books, which it failed to do spectacularly.

Not even Idris Elba could save that mess of a movie.
Iris Elbow is the James Bond we deserve.
Autocorrect really did a number on your comment.
Idris Elbow is aware of the effect he has on autocorrect.
Do you think him and Benadryl Cucumbersmash are friends?
I think he would have made a great luchador.
Get back to your ready room and tend to your lizard babies.

Most of Steven King books end up this way. It’s pretty much expected at this point.
Never read the books because I heard they end badly and that’s a hell of a time commitment.
They end fine. Genuinely, read the first book, and read the last chapter of the last book. Ignore everything else.
They could’ve had a motherfucking FRANCHISE
