Well, that was unexpectedly great. I'd love to hear your favorite subtle thing.

Also curious what the book ending was, if you want to share, @[email protected].

I think Stephen King is very good at writing stories, but often very bad at ending them; quite a few of his books have great setups but end in an unsatisfying or anticlimactic way. Very much liked the movie ending, though - was not at all what I expected, and very emotionally impactful.

He's even gone on record that the way they ended The Mist was way better than his written ending. Having consumed both, I'm inclined to agree.
