Any Stephen King Fans Going To Blockbuster Soon?

[Rayne]

Have you seen the Mist globe? When you shake it, it has little black spiders floating in it...I saw it last night. You buy the movie and get the globe for FREE (until they run out). I didn't do it because I thought I already bought the movie earlier, but as it turns out, I had bought 1408 but not The Mist...So, I'm getting the globe tonight.

It's a really cool collector's item.

This is a terrible picture of it, but I can't find a better one...I guess it's pretty rare.

They have TONS of used dvds @ 4 for $20. We bought 20 dvds night before last, then went back last night and bought 4 more (that was when I saw the globe as we were checking out). I thought I had already bought The Mist the night before, got home and checked but no Mist.

You have to buy The Mist new for $20 to get the globe, but it's worth it to me.

They also have a bunch of DVDs @ 2 for $20, but I'll just wait a week or two and get them for half that :p

I have to agree with you on that. I really didn't like the ending. Honestly, even in real life, don't you think he would have waited to make sure there was absolutely NO way for his son to survive before he took such drastic measures? And even then, I couldn't do it no matter what...That just made it not believable to me (well, if you can accept the basic concept of the movie as 'believable'...I'm sure you know what I mean). They should have stuck with the ending to the original story.

Other than the ending, most of the rest of the movie was almost exactly the way I pictured it when I was reading it. That was amazing to see for me.

I have to have ALL of King's movies and books.

Must be nice to have an asset like that :)


Hmm...I can't imagine anything Seri could do for me at Citibank...

Maybe I'll encourage Alex to work at Blockbuster in a few years :D

These are things we don't consider when we start having kids...More people should think about the long-range benefits :D
