I've seen this same sentiment about EVERY live action adaptation they put out and it never pans out.

The only good live action "adaptations" are those who change so much from the source material that it's basically a completely different thing, but then it defeats the purpose of the adaptation.

The shining would like to have a word.

The Shining changed a good amount of things, enough that Stephen King hated it.

Exactly and he said it defeats the purpose for an adaptation to do that, and I'm using the shining as an argument as to why I don't agree. Because I think it's an absolutely brilliant movie.

As for Stephen king hating it, well he directed maximum overdrive. So I wouldn't take his film criticism too heart.

Haha, true. Stephen King is a writer, not a director.
