    The Mist & Sin City TV series

    http://www.blastr.com/2013-12-2/look...rned-tv-series

    The box office has always been a popular talent pool when it comes to picking potential TV properties — and it sounds like two more fan favorites will soon be heading to the small screen.

    In a wide-ranging interview with The New York Times, veteran film producer Harvey Weinstein revealed he is developing TV projects based on the Sin City franchise, as well as Stephen King’s novella (and the 2007 film adaptation) The Mist.
    Look again at that dot. That's here. That's home. That's us. On it everyone you love, everyone you know, everyone you ever heard of, every human being who ever was, lived out their lives. The aggregate of our joy and suffering, thousands of confident religions, ideologies, and economic doctrines, every hunter and forager, every hero and coward, every creator and destroyer of civilization, every king and peasant, every young couple in love, every mother and father, hopeful child, inventor and explorer, every teacher of morals, every corrupt politician, every "superstar," every "supreme leader," every saint and sinner in the history of our species lived there--on a mote of dust suspended in a sunbeam.

    I can see it working for Sin City, as long as it's on the right channel where you can be as brutal and up-front as the graphic novels, but The Mist? That's a finite story that we've already seen covered very well - even definitively - by Darabont. I don't see the point in that ... indeed, a TV show of The Mist, as an idea, gives me horrible 'Under The Dome' style chills (what a piece of shit that show turned out to be!).
