When you start to hyperfixate on something with a really small fan base and little to no new content, leaving you with that sort of restless kinetic energy feeling until you find something new that gives you the same dopamine rush<<<<

JUST READ WHERE CUTHBERT KISSED ROLANDS CHEEK I NEED TO DRAW THIS IMMEDIATELY WHAT THE HELL . ALSO WALTER BACK AGAIN FOR THE MILLIONTH TIME HES SO SKRUNKLY LITTLE SHIT. GOD

[grownups-are-the-real-monsters]

[Cuthbert suddenly laughs uproariously]  Roland: What's so funny now? Cuthbert: Sometimes I just think funny things.

I am sending the original ka-tet to New York City instead of making them deal with the fall of gilead! They have suffered enough! I think they should get to be friends with the NINJA TURTLES

Some notes:

I haven’t decided if Susan lived/came with. On the one hand Susan dying is a key aspect of Roland’s (and Bert’s and Alain’s) fucked up backstory. On the other hand I feel like Susan would be fucking hilarious around April and Casey. Actually Fuckin…. Aileen Ritter and Alain’s sister Claire should also get to come, 1 because Tommy needs his lesbian girlfriends 2 the Susan/Aileen/Claire/April/Sunita/Casey Girls Night would leave no survivors

I feel like Bert and Alain would adapt the easiest to this situation, then Jamie and Tommy, and then trailing a distant last place is Roland… however Tommy would like immediately adapt to technology and hidden city mystic stuff it’s just that he can’t order anything at McDonald’s bc it’s too much pressure

I’ve covered this before in a tdt/tma fic but the only reason anybody can understand spoken or written English is because of Roland’s presence extending Protagonist Plot Comprehension to his party so I’m considering whether a post-Mejis Roland who did NOT receive his quest for the tower (if Susan is alive) also has Main Character Powers and if not gosh I do love “a bunch of people having to live together in close quarters and don’t understand one another until someone makes a breakthrough”

I think objectively the funniest time for them to get drawn out of castle gilead and into New York is literally the first episode but anytime Leo fucks up a portal would be good too tbh

Congratulations splinter you have fucking tripled the number of horrible goblin children you’re responsible for

Every gunslinger autistic as hell… and so is every turtle….

my The Dark Tower fancast* that nobody asked for

*Disclaimer: I'm not going for actual castable people here. It's more about an approximation of what those characters are like in my head. We're talking baselines here. I chose pictures of the stage in those actors lives/careers that come close enough to my vision. I'm not only considering looks, but also their craft and if I think there is the right spark there somewhere in their work. (Also minor details like eye color and changeable things like haircuts don't matter much to me and my imagination.)

anyway:

of course we're starting with the man, the myth, old long tall and ugly:

Justin Theroux as Roland Deschain of Gilead, bitch. (give him some salt in that pepper hair, blue eyes, steal his moisturizer for a month and sandblast him: bam. Roland.)

Ka-Tet of 19

Naomi Harris as Susannah Dean (and you know, Detta/Odetta)

River Phoenix as John "Jake" Chambers. Love you, Bama.

...

And what about... Eddie Dean? So far I have not come across an actor (or anybody, really) who matched what Eddie looks like in my head. Big fucking shoes to fill, he's my favorite after all...

But I'm interested in other peoples ideas about that.

bonus

Mads Mikkelsen as Father Donald Callahan

Mejis Ka-Tet

Jake Gyllenhaal as Cuthbert Allgood

Sean Astin as Alain Johns

Anya Taylor Joy as Susan Delgado

bonus

Meg Foster as Rhea of the Cöos

rereading the dark tower is crazy there was so much said in the first book about the original ka tet that i never really realised until now what do u mean

[jjjjabberwocky]

i am stretched on your grave, and will lie there forever

[sewnwithfate]

Okay so listen, I know all things serve the beam and ka is a wheel and all that…

but did cuthbert really have to die???

[graysongraysoff]

chanting “mike flanagan dark tower” to myself under my breath to keep up morale

[moth-miles]

i’ve always seen cuthbert with slightly longer hair than the other two, but a comic panel i saw earlier presented the idea of man bun / ponytail bert, and i think i enjoy it a lot more than regular long hair bert.
