I think King is great at coming up with ideas but his books are very overrated. It's just the same tired stuff over and over again. He has a formula that he's stuck to for decades (and now his son is using it) and his fans never seem to catch on.

Yeah, it sort of says it all that the movie he seemed to hate the most was the original Shining, when that was one of the few that actually worked.
I enjoyed a lot of his books back when I was younger, have only read a few since the early 90's though.
