As a fan of the novel, I do prefer this over Kubrick's version (even though I think its a solid film if not necessarily a good adaptation)...but there are a few key things that would have made it a lot better: 1. If they didn't show Tony fully until near the end and had him more mysterious for most of the series 2. If they put more effort into the cgi (even by mid 90s standards it was kinda bad) and only use it when they couldn't do practical effects 3. If they made it for a cable network who would've let them keep the R-rated edge of the novel 4. If they had trimmed it down to two parts instead of three so that the tension was better maintained

Just because something works in a book doesn't mean it will work on film.

@@bobbybeard1497um…no…Kubrick flat out refused to do a faithful adaptation because that would’ve clashed with his predetermined narrative about cabin fever he had decided on before he even saw the novel. The novel is scarier because you care way more for the characters in it and I feel having no ambiguity about the ghosts is far more frightening because how do you combat something that defies “a logical explanation”?

King really wanted a good ending for Jack. He even wrote it in Dr. Sleep. I really liked your photo homage with the cats. I like both versions. The original just shouldn't be thought of as anything to do with the book. As just a movie, it's good, though still overanalyzed like no other. For an adaptation of the book, that you can actually show on broadcast tv, this miniseries is fine. Like you said, Weber carried this just like Jack carried all his burdens. I find both versions of Jack to be great. He is simply one of the best characters that King ever created.

Congrats on the upcoming Daddyhood! As for The Shining... I actually can't even watch the Kubrick version (barely made it through my 1st and only viewing). TO ME, Nicholson's over the top hamminess tops anything Nicholas Cage has EVER done. It wasn't The Shining, it was The Jack Nicholson Show. The miniseries definitely leaves a lot to be desired, but it's SO much closer to the original story.

I'm pretty sure I recognize that stretch of highway when they're driving to the hotel. It's near this town called Bailey about an hour outside of Denver that has a hotdog stand shaped like a hotdog!

I remember watching this on TV(before I read the book and had only seen Kubrick's version) as a teen. Like snob mentions, these King TV mini series were a big deal when I was a kid! IT , Stand, and the one with post lady Traci Lords and aliens 😂 And then that , I think it was in 7 parts😂😄 The miniseries I've heard people say "ended the King TV mini series", Golden Years ! I remember going to a Video Update to rent my movies after my local owned VHS rental store closed and seeing Golden Years in the new release section and thinking , "there was a new King miniseries?" 😂 Great review !

The hedge animals were scary in the book, but likely harder to pull off in the film. I feel like instead of CGI you could maybe pull it off with like, guys in a hedge costume? Especially if they still had them there when they were first introduced just standing super still to add that degree of surrealism. Did they still cut the thing in the play tunnel though?

It could be done, but not on a TV budget. You don't need to even show the hedges moving in-camera, just make them way bigger and place them in different places between cuts. At the end when Halloran comes to the Overlook and burns one of the hedge animals there's a blizzard going on, so then you can use CGI and have them obscured by the falling snow.

I had just come home from a semester abroad in Liverpool when this aired so I was still dealing with jet lag and was half asleep during this whole miniseries. The only thing I remember is the very end. 😆

As a huge fan of Wings, I was surprised but pleased to find out they considered Tim Daly. I think he would have been awesome in this role. Tim is a very underrated actor. And your little Roy Biggins remark made me laugh. I love the character of Roy.

I understand why King hated Kubrick's version. You can tell while reading the book that it was a very personal story to King and he probably wrote Jack based off his own experiences (being a high school teacher with alcoholism). So it makes sense he took it personally when Kubrick made Jack into a complete psychopath who never seemed like a good person, even before the supernatural shenanigans. All that being said, IMO, Kubrick's movie is better than the novel. (Don't get me started on the PoS "sequel" Doctor Sleep)

Okay. While I did see the Ghostbusters II clip coming at the mention of the Titanic, it was more a "I swear, he better reference- oh, good, there it is" situation, so kudos for that, Brad, and congrats on becoming a father.
