Stephen King says he only released one movie as an adult, and it’s a huge box office hit

While any film buff can enjoy the theatrical experience, I think it’s safe to say we all have a breaking point. Sometimes a movie is so bad it’s no longer worth watching, and the release seems a lot more tempting than the idea of ​​watching a feature film until the end credits. You get up from your seat and leave.

For Stephen King it’s obviously an impulse that doesn’t happen often, but there’s a recent blockbuster that says he wasn’t going to stand still when he went to see it on the big screen: 2007’s Michael Bay, his transformers.

This revelation comes to us through the popular author Twitter account, and was born in response to a Tweet from another writer, crime novelist Linwood Barclay. After Barclay wrote that Colin Trevorrow Jurassic world: domination is the first film he’s “abandoned” from in years, King responded with his history of abandonment and urging his fans to share theirs:

And in case there is any confusion as to what exactly transformers Stephen King didn’t go through with it, especially Michael Bay’s first live-action film. transformers blockbuster when a follower asked:

When it comes to critiquing pop culture on social media, Stephen King generally likes to keep things positive, whether it’s praising the excellence of yellow jackets or encourage viewers to watch James Wan’s film Evil. That said, he’s not a critic who practices the “if you don’t have anything nice to say, don’t say anything” idea. He has never been too shy to criticize adaptations of his own work that he says didn’t work, and it was almost exactly a year ago that he revealed what he considers to be the worst horror film ever made.

It seems fair to assume that Stephen King didn’t try to give transformers still in the years since its theatrical release and give it a reassessment (he explained that he’s not in the habit of reviewing things), and it’s worth noting that he’s not alone in judging Michael Bay’s film. Of course, the blockbuster also has a huge fan base and was the fifth most successful at the box office of 2007.

if you haven’t seen transformers yourself and want to see if you can survive Stephen King, the movie is available to stream with an HBO Max subscription and you can rent / buy it digitally on Google Play (opens in a new tab), Amazon (opens in a new tab)and voodoo (opens in a new tab).
