Per Navy regulations, every cabin on this submarine was issued a mandatory copy of The Bachman Books.

Who wants to bet that this is the actual model of the sub used throughout the movie in the FX shots?

I didn't hate it. Crowd was into it? The lead said "fuck" about 200 times. The ending was annoying. I liked how simple it was but not really worth the theater experience.

Many people have told me to listen to this so I finally did. All my life I've avoided it strictly because of the cover.

Somewhere along the way the idea of someone turning your book into a movie became the ultimate goal. But the book is the thing, not the adaptation, right? Anyway, people told me a new movie called IT ENDS is a lot like this one. I'll watch it and report back! (blurb by @stephengrahamjones.com)

This Killer on the Road from @sstpublications.bsky.social is gorgeous. Also, I just got the wide version of that cover, much larger, back from the framer. One of the very coolest covers I’ve lucked into. Thanks, Francois Vaillancourt. Also? Killer was the most fun to write of any of my novels.
Book jacket: a big rig/tractor from a low angle, such that we can see “Stephen Graham Jones” on the tall bumper. “Killer on the Road” is on the side of the hood. Truck’s dingy red, has seen some miles.

I don't understand why Stevie Nicks would write such a notoriously heartwrenching song named after this little diner. The breakfast omelet wasn't even that great and the hashbrowns were... Wait what? Hold on [hand over earpiece]... Never mind.

There are no cliffhangers in Cliffhanger, no poetic justice in Poetic Justice, no babies driving in Baby Driver, no one set on fire in Man on Fire, Blue Thunder was black, the dinosaurs in Jurassic Park are from the Cretaceous period, the NeverEnding Story ends, and Debbie never makes it to Dallas.

Long story short there are 4 versions out there. Original publisher collapsed and put out an unedited draft, audiobook was produced using entirely different draft, then it was reissued first with an unedited draft then an edited draft. Like to imagine there's a clean version somewhere but who knows.

It's a testament to the original Krazy Glue ads that I have so many distinct childhood memories of being disappointed by its effectiveness. Also, how many hardhats were permanently stuck to girders? How many skyscrapers had to incorporate them into the structure? How many lives were lost that day?

Had a lot of fun watching Val Kilmer movies for @projectionbooth.bsky.social's Val-Halla series. Enjoyed reading his memoir too - came across as such an out-there, heart-on-his-sleeve goofball. My heart goes out to loved or loathed ones whom his temperament hurt, but man he made some movies thanks
