They lost me the second they announced the cast. It’s like the people making the movie never once opened up a single one of the games.
Kevin Hart as Roland is just infuriating. It shows they had no intention of treating the IP with any level of respect and they just wanted a campy action comedy with famous actors.
I could have gotten over the minor disparity because they needed a good actor, but that script was a completely butchered hack job. Anyone who made decisions on that movie should be excised from the entertainment industry.
Ha ha. The casting was the least of the movie’s issues. I like watching Elba and I think Matthew McConaughey was phenomenal casting for the Man in Black.

Exactly the same response to how they cast Roland in The Dark Tower. Apparently Roland is a cursed name now.
You mean Idris Elba isn’t good casting for a character described as a “honky mufuh” with “bombardier blue” eyes?
I like watching Idris but he ain’t no Roland Deschain.
The color of Idris Elba’s skin and eyes had absolutely fuck all to do with why that movie was fucking awful.

Wow, yeah. I love most of the actors in the cast but hard agree that not a one of them probably even know the game. Weird casting choices for sure
