The "Hey" is sampled by and they gave TAON writing credits, so each time is played, The Art Of Noise receive royalties too, which I thought was respectful of The Prodigy.

I had forgotten that even though the filmmakers completely abandoned the written source material, they did co-opt the use of "The Shop" in Lawnmower Man.

Having just recently wrapped up Firestarter, The Shop is still top of mind!

While working through , I came across a book called "Creepshows: The Illustrated Stephen King Movie Guide" that was published in 2001 covering every film & TV adaptation of King's works up to that point.

I'm starting with the Mick Garris introduction and then onto to the pages covering some of those early movies I've already seen.

For the most part, they covered the same ground as the dozens of other podcasts. But they did bring up two interesting things:

➡️ A lengthy discussion of Charlie's firegasms in Firestarter 2: Rekindled

➡️ Asking ChatGPT to draft a sequel to Firestarter. It came up with Charlie growing up still on the run from a secret government agency and meeting up with a ragtag group of other firestarters to take them on. 😂

"Firestarter changes things just to change ’em, in a less sure-footed way that bumbles into a disastrous final act..."

A perfectly stated summation of this remake.

"Screenplay by Scott Teems, who’s writing Insidious 5, co-penned David Gordon Green’s Halloween Kills, and has a story credit on Green’s upcoming Exorcist remake."

Since the biggest complaint about this film was its screenplay, that doesn't bode well for the upcoming films!

They wondered if Rainbird was carrying Charlie to the headquarters of Rolling Stone. 😂

I've got no comments about this Kingslingers episode. They came out of the gate trashing this remake up and down.

I didn't think this was a great film, but I don't think it deserved the thorough bashing its received. I've seen much much worse in the King film world.

I would rewatch this over the original 1984 version any day.
