Watching the Shining for the first time in years and wishing I could go to an alternative reality where the lead is Leslie Nielson instead of Jack Nicholson.
You want it to be a comedy?

Imagine spending a billion US dollars to be a loser. Could've watched animu and be one for free.

Nielsons didn't just do comedy.

Shining would've been great for Mel Brooks to riff into.

By the time The Shining was made, he was a comedic actor. Ask anyone to name a Leslie Nielsen film and they'll more likely tell you 'Naked Gun' or 'Airplane' than 'Forbidden Planet' or 'The Poseidon Adventure'

I find that his role in The Shining was Nicholson's best-fitting role he ever played.

The faggot can go fuck himself. He's a worse fiction shitposter than L. Ron Hubbard because at least that guy didn't write a "master piece" novel with dozens of pages dedicated to children fucking.

The Shining is one of my Top 10 films. I think Nicholson was terrific in it, and I don't mind that he played a different sort of Jack than the original King version,

I hope one day Glorious Nippon will make an authentic OVA of It. Or just one with the missing scenes no adaptation wants to touch.

The King sanctioned miniseries didn't have those scenes? Did it have anything worthwhile in it other than the MILF wife?
