| ams288 Member since: Apr 21, 2016 Threads: 29 Posts: 12533 | An early draft of the screenplay for IT leaked last week. I read the whole thing last Sunday evening. I can't wait. It's one of my favorite Steven King books. This movie only covers half of the book, when the characters are kids. If it is successful, they will do another one covering when the characters are adults.  “A straight man will not go for kids.” - AZDuffman |

Christopher Nolan is the reason I'm looking forward to that movie. I have been underwhelmed by the trailers so far. But I have faith in his storytelling skills. I think they showed 5 minutes or so of Dunkirk footage before certain IMAX screenings of Rogue One, and I heard good reviews of that footage... “A straight man will not go for kids.” - AZDuffman |

When the printer jams at the same time the internet goes down, close to a project deadline, and they have to call the IT department? Scary stuff :) Donald Trump is a one-term LOSER |

Dunkirk is a good example of wartime spin for morale reasons. Really, it was an unmitigated defeat that brought the situation about. Was it important to rescue so many soldiers? Hell, yes, it was. Looks at what happened to the other side in a similar situation after a failed siege. But this also marked the expulsion of allied forces from mainland Europe for years. It's hard enough to celebrate a necessary military victory, like say the D-Day landings or Gettysburg. It's far more difficult to celebrate a defeat only because it was not as terribly bad as it could have been. Donald Trump is a one-term LOSER |
