I think #Christine was 1st/only #StephenKing book I tried reading as a 1980s teen. I didn't finish it, but did see the movie. #Octoblur2017 pic.twitter.com/wpJFyOiqpC
I've read many #StephenKing books in last 10yrs & rewatched movies. #Christine is 1 of the worst despite prime #JohnCarpenter #Octoblur2017 pic.twitter.com/HyGPsBXlwF
Although well-cast & well-shot, #Christine is a bad #StephenKing adaptation, relying on exposition over demonstration. #Octoblur2017 pic.twitter.com/3Jd5NvDJQX
#Christine rushes past key relationships - Arnie & car, Arnie & Leigh - and most plot points. Nothing is developed/meaningful. #Octoblur2017 pic.twitter.com/UBOHmSJG9P
2 casting issues w/#Christine : I hoped #HarryDeanStanton would play LeBay, a key character who was cut out of the movie. #Octoblur2017 pic.twitter.com/auu7OiM16M
And how in #Christine was #KellyPreston cast as a background wallflower while charmless #AlexandraPaul is the "ideal" girl? #Octoblur2017 pic.twitter.com/NFBPLgBXCl
#Christine gets 4/10, 24% on Flickchart https://buff.ly/2zZvqhe & 2 Stars on Letterboxd https://buff.ly/2zYWf5j #Octoblur2017 #JohnCarpenter pic.twitter.com/qS2bVjyj34
