User blog comment:HumboldtLycanthrope/The Shining: King or Kubrick?/@comment-24463401-20150227215225

When I read the title I thought this was going to be an arguement about the Shining or the shitty remake that King did. I haven't read the book, but seeing the movie he made about it kinda turned me off. Seriously, if you're a fan of the book, don't watch the remake. It's not that good. He made it because he thought Kubrick's version was too different from the source material. Even if you prefer the book you gotta admit that the movie has some amazing moments. I'm sure the book is good, but I just like the movie.
