I also need to finish the books. My biggest problem with this movie, besides screwing up the casting and look of the characters (seriously, Roland looks like a Blade wannabe, now), is that they aren't even adapting the books correctly. It's pretty damn obvious to do this 1 book, 1 movie. Instead this movie is trying to fit much of the entire series into one movie, pulling elements from 3 books, plus supposedly have some story that's supposed to take place after the last book. This is going to be a complete clusterfuck of a movie.

I'll still watch it but ... I'm not happy about it Yes Mconaughey would have fit the part of Roland better ... I'd always kind of hoped Eastwoods son would get older before they made these .. he's a little too pretty for my taste but the pick of Clint on the right is pretty much how i imagined ol' long tall and ugly to look.

I have no interest in it anymore. Not after looking into what the movie is actually about. Basically, the typical Hollywood "loosely-based" mainstream adaptation. And yea, Clint's son wouldn't be a bad choice. Michael Fassbender would probably be a decent choice, too.
