I've only read the first 1.5 books (plus some of the Marvel comic prequel series), but my mother absolutely loves The Dark Tower series. She thinks the ending is perfect, which makes me want to read the other books but...I can't quite get into them. I was still looking forward to watching the film anyway, and the tv series if that's even still a thing (I haven't been keeping up with news).
I was talking to my mom yesterday, and asked what she thought of the trailer. Being a huge fan, I didn't know how she'd react to the adaptation. She actually wants to come in town in August to see the film in theatres. The last film she saw in theatres was Star Trek (2009), and only because it was a treat from me for Mother's Day that year and she had to come in for another reason anyway.
Now I'm really looking forward to seeing the film. I just hope my mom doesn't expect me to read through the other books so we can discuss the differences between the source material and the film. That's a lot of pages.
