The Shining

This movie was an abomination as an adaptation to the book by Stephen King. I respect the shit out of a good Stephen King movie-adaptation, or that is, I would, if there was one that I could actually like remotely, or even at all. The only Stephen King adaptation I've ever loved was The Stand, which is a three part, 90 minutes each, Netflix series so they could get every damn detail correct. That's my favorite book ever and thank jesus it was good or else I would have cried. I know now that when (if) I watch a Stephen King adaptation that I should not expect much past 'meh'.
