概要
In Episode 3 of Cross‑Eyed Bear, Tristan and Chris finally turn their squinty eyes toward Stephen King’s The Dark Tower—the sprawling, genre‑bending epic that dares to ask, “What if a western, fantasy saga, and existential nightmare all shared the same universe?” They break down what the series is, why it’s so beloved (and occasionally exhausting), and why shoving 4,500 pages into a single movie was maybe… not the best idea.
From debating Stephen King adaptations (The Shining, Doctor Sleep, and why Mike Flanagan is basically King’s chosen one) to obsessively fantasy‑casting Roland Deschain and his ka‑tet, the conversation spirals into pop‑culture nerdery, bold opinions, and more A‑list actors than the budget could ever afford. Expect strong takes, questionable confidence, and at least one perfectly serious discussion about casting a sentient, homicidal monorail.
It’s guerrilla‑style podcasting, fueled by ’80s and ’90s pop culture, bad movie decisions, and the belief that with enough points on the back end, Spielberg will eventually return your texts. Long days and pleasant nights—and stay classy, San Diego?
