The Mist by Stephen King

Releasing worldwide November 21, 2007, The Mist by Stephen King is highly anticipated as every movie based on his books are. Ones not made for TV, but make it to the big screen are even more anticipated than the made for TV movies and mini-series’ he has become so well known for like The Stand and Tommyknockers.

By far, my favorite Stephen King movie is The Shining. That movie is one of the best movies ever made in my opinion. Scary, creepy, and fantastic acting from Jack Nicholson. Seeing the blood flowing down the halls, his head through the door, or the little girls in the hall always gives me chills years later when I see the film.

The Mist is another big time movie coming out from Stephen King this month and should be another startling scene that we all have come to love and expect from the author. Anyone write more books than this guy? Then make them all at least interesting to read? It’s crazy how talented he is.

Anyways, The Mist is another of his books that has made it to the screen. After a violent storm attacks a town in Maine, an approaching cloud of mist appears the next morning. As the mist quickly envelops the area, a group of people get trapped in a local grocery store -among them, artist David Drayton and his five-year-old son. These people come to realize that the Mist is not only a sort of strange fog, but inside the Mist are strange creatures. some think they are from nearby military base experiments, but one thing is for sure they are dangerous and they may not get out alive.

I’ve had this short story on my iPod before as an audiobook and it is indeed very creepy. Seeing how the create the creature portrayed in this story with a big budget production crew is going to be amazing.

Harry Potter Getting Naked on Stage

Not the character, but the kid who plays him in the movies. Daniel Radcliffe , who is best known for playing boy-wizard Harry Potter in five films, will reprise his role as Alan Strang in ‘Equus’ on Broadway beginning next year, BBC News is reporting.

“I’m obviously nervous but I’m very very excited,” the 18-year-old actor said.

“If we can get a straight play to really succeed in a world of theatre that is so besieged by musicals, that would be a real achievement and I think the time is absolutely right to do it [in New York.]”

Oh noes. What about the children!? The children I say…the children.

Windows to Keep the Cold Out

Looking out the window today it appears that winter is quickly forcing itself upon us. I don’t even have my storm windows up yet, and have had my windows open with the screens in within the last week. Blowing and a bit of slush out there today so having double pane glass windows in right now is making me a bit more comfortable in the warmth of my own home. Ecoglass is the #1 provider of insulated windows, and if you live where I do you absolutely have a need for thick windows to protect from this crazy weather we get around this time of year.

Rosie O’Donnell May Get MSNBC Talk Show

I know everyone is excited to see Rosie back on the air filling your head with crazy political ideas and illogical arguments. It appears she may be able to actually do this on a news station, which is certainly good for comedic applications. I can’t imagine many take her political ramblings very seriously, but I guess she is a ratings draw for some odd reason. Kind of a train wreck if you asked me, but what do I know?

As of now it sounds like she is going to be pitted up against Fox News Channel’s “Hannity & Colmes” and CNN’s “Larry King Live” in the 9 P.M. time slot. MSNBC has had a problem competing in that time slot so they may just be going with the easiest ratings boost they can get. A person that spews nonsense and gets people fired up. Controversy sells, as we all know so this should be an interesting match. Hopefully it spawns many more Donald Trump ravings soon.
