Day 326
======
I finished watching The Stand (1994) yesterday. It looks like a video uploads are working again on this server, so I will fill in yesterday's thread with the conclusion of this incredible series.

This morning, I turn to The Losers Club for their review of the great stand in Vegas.

When Harold shot himself after his accident, many miles away Stu reacts psychically, tasting "gun oil" in his mouth.

I agreed with The Losers that this made no sense. Stu never exhibited psychic powers before, and even if he did why is there a link between him and Harold and not between anyone else who met their fate in Vegas or elsewhere?

That definitely felt tacked on and unnecessary.

Good question... Why *did* Larry Underwood decide that carrying a 🎸 was necessary for a 1,000 mile journey by foot? Seems like it would've been so uncomfortable to carry that distance and take up precious space that could have been occupied by a tent, medical supplies, etc. 🤔

This podcast episode was recorded in 2020 before the release of the more recent adaptation of The Stand.

"I hope they update it, and replace the Rat Man with something more modern, like The Tiger King." 😂

The Losers' Club ends with a well-deserved mocking of Stephen King's acting skills.

"Stu!"

I missed it the first time, but here's Sam Raimi's cameo as the guy who shoots up the Judge.

Here's something you didn't need: A 10 minute supercut of Randall Flagg (Jamie Sheridan) singing "Baby, Can You Dig Your Man"

Tom Cullen is the "Samwise" of The Stand?

Interesting... 🤔

@stephenkingjourney ...not that he had good memories of tents...
@Scix You're so right! But they didn't do that scene in this series, so who knows!
