DOCTOR SLEEP is one of those flicks I personally enjoyed while despairing of its chances of ever connecting with a large audience owing to its languid pace and lack of wow factor (its user score at Metascore is pitiful). I also reckon Bruce Greenwood's office decor was a creative mistake (I was thinking, "Wait, is Danny applying for a job at the Overlook?"). Also, the possibility of the Overlook itself remaining intact with the boilers still working is rather risible (not to mention the possibility of getting to the hotel in winter without a snow plow).
Still, a decent flick. But why is everyone saying that "some guy" is playing Jack Torrance when that "some guy" is the kid from E.T.?

The score for TERMINATOR: DARK FATE is by Tom Holkenborg, not Lorne Balfe.
Damn, good catch. I was obviously confusing it with Terminator:Genesis, or however you spell tha last one (and every other film Balfe has scored in the last two years).
Will fix.

I actually thought it was "some guy" they found who looked like Nicholson from certain angles, not realizing it was Henry Thomas until the end credits. And I felt especially dumb since I only finished watching Thomas in Hill House a few weeks ago.
I wonder if they would have been able to get Jacob Tremblay for his role if he hadn't already done Before I Wake for Flanagan. (On the other hand, given this and The Predator, maybe Tremblay just loves horror sequels).

What was it Andy Warhol once said?
"In the future, every film will be scored by Lorne Balfe for 15 minutes."
