That's great, but I'm skeptical about how good it will be after the weak For Your Consideration.

Yeah, it's not like it's bad or anything - just mediocre, and it showed that Guest is fallible.

It's really good. It has a lot more heart and honesty than his others. It's not as funny as the previous films but it's actually about something. Guest gets a little more serious. The scene work is still wonderful. But don't expect to laugh like an asshole for an hour and a half.

Guys, Joey just informed me they are making The Dark Tower stuff into a movie. This is fantastic.

Hopefully. They've been trying for a long time. And it's been in several stages of development many times before. Sounds like it might really stick this time, though. They have a director and a distributor. And casting looks like it's taking shape. So... fingers crossed.

It's longer, edited a little differently, and has an intermission. Also, it comes out a week earlier than the regular theatrical version.

And projected in 70mm, if I'm reading it right. Thanks for turning me on to this, I might do this.

Correct. All the theaters showing it on Christmas are projecting it in full 70mm film.
