While it should be noted that Shining director Stanley Kubrick is kinda crazy and hard to work with, to the point he drove the actor for Wendy insane, Steven King had slandered him as sexist by calling Kubrick depiction of Wendy "misogynistic".
This, along with the other bashing of the 80's film by King is likely why Stanley Kubrick forced him to sign an NDA to make him shutup in exchange for the movie rights needed for the late 90's miniseries. Steven King would later gloat about the NDA expiring with Stanley Kubrick's death.
Steven King would later attract controversy for defending the Regressive Left and bashing Trump.
The Stand had a scene where a deranged cult of black soldiers is executing people on live television.
Imagine if they actually included it in a new TV adaptation, about which I only know they actually did it (during Covid no less).
BLM? Or just a show?
It was written in like 1978 or whatever.
Ah,I misunderstood your question. I meant they made the TV series, which I was sure would be canceled.
Oh. Well, it's happening now. We just need a bomb to finish it up.
