Talk:Salem's Lot (2004 miniseries)

message: I removed this second paragraph, because it is not only uncited, but i'm not sure the tone is neutral.  and some if it is interpretation based on other works that may not be pertinant to this entry.  here is the original paragraph is someone wants to edit or cite it properly:
The movie received mixed reactions from both critics and fans. Most praised the lavish production values and the casting, but many were put off by the major changes to both the novel's plot and characters. For example, Father Callahan, rather than being the tragic character whose faith fails him, now turns into Barlow's new apprentice after Straker is slain. At this time the fifth Dark Tower novel, Wolves of the Calla, had come out, which featured the return of Father Callahan's character and the start of his redemption. Some were also critical of some of the unnecessary attempts to modernize the story, with the inclusion of cell phones, etc.

message: I changed the "Deviations" page previously and it was changed back for some unknown reason.  In the book, Matt Burke is also gay, it's just not a major plot point of the novel.  It isn't stated clearly, but it's there; there is a passage stating that nobody cared about Burke's lifestyle as long as he didn't demonstrate it in town.
::I just removed that part again, also the part about Marjorie Glick's bite being 'cured' by a tetanus shot.  Its in the book, if you look for it. Leafschik1967 18:34, 3 December 2007 (UTC)

message: Are you sure this is a mini series? I have a DVD with everything the same (character actors, story, cover etc). It was filmed mostly in the little town of Creswick. It isnt split into a two part series on the DVD. Am i posting in the wrong section? provide a link to redirect to the movie if i am wrong.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 144.139.45.249 (talk) 10:35, 6 November 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: It was aired over a span of two days when it premiered and was advertised as a miniseries.--CyberGhostface 03:41, 4 December 2007 (UTC)

text: If you watch the DVD you will see a part where there was clearly meant to be a break (i.e. showing Ben back in the hospital with the orderly, and then recapping the basic stroy). ArdClose (talk) 01:53, 20 February 2008 (UTC)

message: Anyone else think that maybe the cast page could be done a bit better?  I don't really think guys like Dr. Cody and Mark Petrie have 'cameo' roles in the script. Leafschik1967 18:36, 3 December 2007 (UTC)

message: I cleared this section up a bit...I think it was a tad misleading and some pieces of info were a bit gratuitous. I wasn't particularly sure about the 'Kurt Barlow gets younger and younger' part, but I left it there for benifit of the doubt. I know these kind of sections are difficult to keep snappy, as it's hard to tell where to draw the line between what's relevent and what's not, but the way the story was adapted I tried to cluster things up a bit.

That movie came out a full year after 'Salem's Lot!  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 66.236.175.98 (talk) 14:37, 22 October 2009 (UTC)

message: There is a section wherein Lowe reflects on Hauer's performance in SL. However, I have read Lowe's books, and he does not note the actor by name. Because he did not, we cannot. If we dom it's Synthesis. I'll wait about a week before removing it as per WP:SYN. - Jack Sebastian (talk) 18:25, 28 October 2019 (UTC)
