I travel for work and listen to a lot of audio books. I Just started listening to the first book in Stephen kings the dark tower series. I absolutely hate it. I forced myself to listen to over half the book hoping it would grow on me..... it didn't. I can't stand the writing style/narration/and the way the characters talk. I know it's supposed to be Stephen kings favorite book series he wrote but it's awful. And they're like 8 more books in the series, no thanks. I enjoy most other Stephen king books I've read/listened to but there is no way I could suffer through this book, if I was reading it I probably would've stopped in the first chapter.

Yep, that's why I posted this as an unpopular opinion. I don't doubt the subsequent books get better, they definitely can't get any worse than the first one IMO. I just couldn't suffer through the book any longer. I'm thinking the story just isn't for me. I really liked cell and desperation....two of Stephen king's poorly reviewed books. Just listened to a big collection of his short stories including "in the tall grass". That one was interesting, Hulu (or Netflix?) made a movie based on "in the tall grass". They changed the story a bit but the movie adaption was good nonetheless, check it out if you haven't seen it. Also "1408" is in my top 5 favorite movies, not sure if that's an unpopular opinion though?

That should be an achievement award, along with starting a "bubble burst thread" within <1yr on the site.

I prefer LEDs, but some of these lighting setups I've seen on can be pretty ridiculous. For example: My Paragon came with 4smd LEDs in all of the insert and GI lights. You needed sunglasses to play the freaking game. I switched them out with 2smd frosted sunlight which are just the right amount of brightness without blinding you.

I kinda agree with you on this. My wife loves these movies, and I've always tolerated watching them with her but I've always felt that they were a bit overrated.

Best thing that came out of the movies:

How so? I'm not disagreeing with you, just curious what type of harm you mean?
