The serial intecourse (to put it politely) scene at the end of "IT" was quite tasteless, though.

I'm hearing of new/hybrid "GEN," who identify as "Zillionials." I'm for it.

Are you referring to Xennials? Xennials are a micro-generation born between Generation X and Millennials, typically between the late 1970s and early to mid-1980s. They are considered a bridge between the two larger generations, experiencing an analog childhood and a digital adulthood.

Oh, that Steven King. I thought you were referring to the demented, racist, former Iowa politician. Who in retrospect was a head of his MAGA time. He'd be just a republican now...

I remember when my 7th grader took The Stand as thier reading activity to Catholic school. School called to make sure we were cool with it. We were. And surprisingly they were too.

I’m halfway thru Never Flinch right now. Putting it down to get work and other things done has been challenging!!!

My husband loved Stephen King. He had every book and some twice. When he died I gave them to an English teacher for a small class that she was trying to encourage to read for fun.

I never read him but I saw Children of the Corn at a slumber party too young and I was scarred for life.

I think I only made it thru the 1st 15 minutes of the movie and am scarred for life. 😬

I will no longer watch a Stephen King movie unless HE wrote the screenplay and is involved in production. I have seen WAY too many films of his books that….. were just plain awful.
