Here I am, awake at 4:30 a.m., looking for a new wallpaper. In one of the image descriptions, I see something about a Dark Tower TV show. Naturally, I couldn't skip it xd
Here is the page. You have to scroll down a bit, but it's not hard to find. I shall quote it here anyway, I'm just giving you the source. This was posted on April 29, 2009.

"Lost celebrates its 100th episode tonight, with the eventual goal somewhere around 125 episodes. In case you don’t know, it’ll all wrap up next spring. And after it’s over, J.J. Abrams and Damon Lindelof may finally get to work on one of the more ambitious adaptations you can even imagine: Stephen King’s Dark Tower.
"Abrams’ Bad Robot earned the rights to the project back in 2007, after Abrams and Lindelof met with Stephen King. And it looks like the day is nearing when The Dark Tower will move to the front burner. “Damon is obviously still on Lost, we’ve been working on Star Trek together,” Abrams told IGN.
“As soon as Lost is done, hopefully we’ll get to begin tackling that.”

So, needless to say, I'm happy about it. Though I do have a few conflicting feelings. Having never watched "Lost" all I can do is hope that it is indeed a good series.
So, spoonfeed time I suppose. I ask you this ATG: Are there any books that you have read, that you would like to see turned into a movie or tv series? Are, for those that have read the Dark Tower series, what are your thoughts on this new development? (It's news to me, at least)
