Stephen King looks great for a man who is about to turn 72.

I couldn't help but think of the episode of Friends where Rachel finds Joey's copy of The Shining in the freezer.

I really love how at 1:13 handled the camera work!

I love this man. I go way back to the 70’s with “Carrie.” I had to read the book after the movies. His mind aged well; still writing and making a lot of sense about the world.

Jk....King is my favorite story teller, books and movies. I started reading his books in1976, when I was 10. I started with Salem’s Lot, and have kept going ever since. Thank you to Mr King 🙏🏼

Side note, I think sunny is so great in segments when she's just having fun 😂😂😂

[geocyo]

Yo if they had had a clown pop out when she was talking about it that would have been all I needed! LOLOL

[TruDis]

The space between his nose and mouth is hypnotic

[azurenojito]

He is humble and good-natured, but smart and vigilant. That is why he is great.

Listening to the Institute it’s a great book but it’s so hard because of the kids breaks my heart. As do the thought of the kids in cages at the board! Keep bringing us great book Stephen king I love them

[kieranmclaren]

If your gonna bring on the King then at least somebody on the panel should have read his book. Very much gave the impression that they hadn't read it 🤔

[ezequielh]

I love sunny so much lol when she started screaming no no nooo

[willwright]

Last Sunday I stumbled on to Alfred Hitchcock movie "The Birds"! YO! that movie is one of the best I've seen. & it's so old! Released in 1963! I'm hooked. This Sunday I'm going to watch 'Psycho'.

If King says a movie is good...be careful

[Gsusan]

Love Stephen King. Looks like a Who, which is also amazing.

[etherealenergy]

It would be nice to see if you ever make a movie about The Institute to have foster kids or other kids who have experienced similar situation to play the roll. It would really help since they been through something like that.
