I have a special place in my heart for this movie. To me the langoliers mini series was a very campy sci fi movie. However, I agree with you on Dinah Bellmann in the mini series being annoying. Furthermore, I vastly enjoyed the novella a little more than the mini series. Especially with some of the flashback moments with Toomie's parents.

The novella I also enjoyed more…but that’s not saying an awful lot 😂😂

'Wait, did I just make that sound quite good?' Yes, you did! I saw this back when it came out and don't remember thinking much of it but as you were laying out the plot I was thinking 'Hmm, I need to watch this again it sounds pretty cool!'

It’s funny you mention the ‘bloody idiot’ scene as I distinctly remember watching The Langoliers on first UK broadcast on Sky as a lad. At the time I used to call people a ‘bloody idiot’ as a joke because it sounded funny. Then I saw it that day on this TV adaptation and laughed because of that. Also that freeze frame and the ‘yeah’ from the young lad has become something of a cult scene between me and a friend. We even discuss what it would look like if King wrote that scene just as it plays on screen.

😂 the freeze frame is iconic, I would love to see it written on page! And then have someone call King a bloody idiot for attempting it

Yes, it's cheesy TV-mini series quality, but I think that's what makes it a fun watch. Plus, it's based on one of my favorite King stories. If one decides to skip over the mini series, I still highly recommend the book (even if Dave doesn't like it.) :)

I love The Langoliers movie. It’s weird, but the characters are interesting. The plot is certainly novel.

Hey Dave great video. I remember when I was 10 I was trying to find Stephen King's The stand and me and my dad eventually found a DVD at Walmart. They were selling them at Walmart because the new adaptation was coming out and before that I looked on VUDU and found it but I didn't want to buy it because I didn't want to waste any money and I found The langoliers on VUDU too but I think they removed it.
