Journal MagnetarJones's Journal: Dreamcatcher 2

Dreamcatcher was released on DVD yesterday so I went to Wal-Mart after work and picked it up.

I read the book so I was prepared to be disappointed, I wasn't. Oh sure, they didn't follow the book to the letter (it would have been a 4-5 hour movie had they done that) and they took some shortcuts, but all-in-all it followed the story rather well. The problem, as I see it, is that people who didn't read the book may have a hard time figuring out exactly what is going on.

Couple of notes:
Donnie Wahlberg as the older Duddits (the acting was fine but there is just something about that which is funny)
If you get the DVD check out the "One worm kills" outtake, its funny.
I liked the movie version of the ending but there is an alternate ending on the DVD which, while rather boring, comes closer to the book ending (though not exactly)

Following the "Flaming Stick of Fuck" thread (I couldn't find the link) I hearby give you the following (with the appropriate usage)

I don't give a "toothy shit weasel" (feel free to work that one into your conversations) what you think, I liked the movie.
