Interesting Quote: Stephen King

"I've heard rumblings about a Carrie remake, as I have about The Stand and It. ... Who knows if it will happen? The real question is why, when the original was so good? I mean, [it's] not Casablanca or anything, but a really good horror-suspense film, much better than the book. Piper Laurie really got her teeth into the bad-mom thing. Although Lindsay Lohan as Carrie White ... hmmm. It would certainly be fun to cast. I guess I could get behind it if they turned the project over to one of the Davids: Lynch or Cronenberg."
Stephen doesn't know why there's a remake to 'Carrie'

Get Ready for... IT the Feature Film

You remember IT. The Stephen King masterpiece and later a mini-series in the 90s.

Well, it's about to be a feature film. The screenwriter, David Kajganich talked about the progress.
When I heard Warner Bros. was going to give the novel a go theatrically, I went after the job hard. I knew the studio was committed to adapting IT as a single film, so I went back and reread the novel to see if I thought this was even possible, and to try to find a structure that would accommodate such a large number of characters in two different time periods, around 120 pages, which was another of the studio�s stipulations.
and..

In all of my talks with the studio, it has only ever been discussed as a single feature film. The book's length is clearly more suited to a mini-series�and I understand very well why they went that route the last time around�but I think the book�s content is really more appropriate for cinema. I told the studio from the beginning that I felt I needed to be able to write for an R rating, since I wanted to be as candid as the novel about the terrible things the characters go through as kids. They agreed and off I went.
I hope he can pull it off, IT is no joke. I wish him luck.
