@levi Why wouldn't a web form text area (whatever that is - I assume, it's some ui element that takes text) not take base64 strings?
 
It would, but that would land in a server log, or perhaps translated verbatim into a html paragraph in some internal message viewer tool. If the person handing customer support came across a stream of alphanumeric characters, even if surrounded my a MIME header or something, have any idea what to do with it? They run a print shop, and the site was probably built under contract.

I've been to plenty of discos mostly filled with those. Not sure what 10% of one is though.

I thought them ballsing up their postcode was the supposedly absurd bit of this until I spotted that. It should be W1W 7 at the very least.

It seems, you have forgotten the face of your father ... I mean ... the nature of this subforum ;)

As im currently Watching "Breaking Bad" on Netflix, mybe Jesse Pinkman is a good "model" for Eddie Dean..
But Roland have to be white, otherwise the conflict whit Detta ditnt work..
 
The movie was mildly inspired by The Dark Tower at best. To me it felt more like an insult.
 
Ditnt saw the Movie, just some trailers, and Ildris Elba looked pretty awesome as Roland,
Dit they also change the Charakter of Odetta ??

On my Kindle Version of "Black" (the first Book) its seems like they used a Picture of the Movie..
Also my Kindle shows only a couble of hours Read Time at the Beginging, but i can remember, that i once wrote the book in an evening..
 
I don't even know anymore, if Odetta was there. They actually did not make the books into a movie - they just made a movie with some borrowings.
 
The problem with the Dark Tower film was that it was a bad film. Straight translations of King's books tend to make for boring films, so while films like The Shining are good films, they're not good translations of the book either.

Short stories can make good films, but I can't think of any novel I've read that made an actual good direct movie translation. Novels often have kind of cliffhangers on the end of different chapters then switch away to a different scene, so they're often more akin to tv serials perhaps.
 
Up until far into TDT movie, I expected it to be the adaption of the first book.

The Lord of the Rings movie I liked, though I moant a bit the sections, that were left out.
 
Yeah, that's due to the essential difference between novels and films, and that's perhaps especially true of the type of epic that TLotR was. The three act structure is fundamenal to plays and films, and once you're aware of it you can feel the beats of films as you watch them. The first part of Fellowship is the first act, then everything else is kind of second merging with third towards the end. That's fine in a book, but feels weird and stung out if it was filmed like that.

You are Stephen King aicmfp ;)
