First up we talked about this article from Collider,  “‘The Dark Tower’ Fans to Get First Look at Footage This Fall”

Next up the tweets from Tom Taylor (Jake Chambers)

TomTaylorTweet

First the monthly 19th tweet. Very cool.

Tom Taylor haircut

Also on the 19th, a seemingly non-Tower related tweet (or is it hinting at something).

If nothing else it is an indicator that re-shoots or pickups with him are unlikely.

Next is the picture tweeted to us from our follower Juan,

Well done Juan, well done, and we all say Thankya

Round Table #18: Lou Sytsma, SDCC, GRRM/King, and Emails Show Notes

First off joining out Ka-Tet this week is Lou Sytsma of The Stephen King Podcast. He does this podcast with Hans Lilja who runs Lilja’s Library one of the best and longest running Stephen King fan-websites on the web. They are certainly a great place to go if you want to explore the larger Stephen King Universe.

 

Slightly tangential (but that is Palaver for you) Lou mentioned Starlog Magazine HERE is a link to digital versions of every issue ever printed. Gives you the idea if you are like Peter and were not aware of it.

Here is the picture Peter showed Tadd. Do you ken Barlow?

HERE is the great article we talked about where Anthony Breznican looks at the bizarre event of Beryl Evans showing up at SDCC to sign copies of her book.

Charlie announce

Uncle Stevie tweeted this ahead of Comic-Con.

Beyrl Evans

Beryl Evans at SDCC signing her book.

Want to see the entire book? Thanks to Anthony Breznican (again from EW) for posting all 19 pages, check out the story HERE.

We mentioned the Tet Corporation website, HERE is the link.

Also Sombra has a website, check it out HERE this page is basically a route to the app we mentioned.

Next is Anthony Breznican interviewed Idris Elba at SDCC, check out the full interview HERE.

Here is the interview with George RR Martin and Stephen King for the End of Watch Tour.

Here is the Conan video referenced about the cameras he “hacked” at George RR Martin’s house. Really funny.

Another muted scene but gives you the idea of the range of Idris. He plays the second in command of a Drug Gang that had a stick-up crew rob their stash, he believes there is a snitch and is telling a subordinate how to weed them out. Notice his accent and how different it is from Elba’s real English accent.

Spoilers for Luther in this clip. They basically have a killer who is doing really crazy stuff and it turns out he is rolling dice and killing based on his rolls. Luther (Elba) offers the bomb-strapped killer a game, he says he is the “boss” of this level and gets the killer away from the crowds and pours gasoline on himself and tells him he will guess the role of the dice and if he is wrong the killer can set him on fire. Very intense scene and you can see the mettle that Idris can play even when he is playing a character more human than Roland will be.

Round Table #17: EW’s Anthony Breznican and Emails.
