Scaring up the cash
It:Chapter 2 posted an opening weekend of $92 million, an impressive amount but disappointing when it was projected open above $100 million. The film and it's predecessor have helped to rekindle cinematic interest in the work of Stephen King. Coming out soon is Doctor Sleep the sequel to The Shining starring Ewan McGregor as the grown up Danny Torrance. Director Mike Flanagan says that the film will reconcile the differences between the original The Shining novel by King and the famed film version by Stanley Kubrick which King is known to hate.

An early surprise
Amazon customers who preodered the new Margaret Atwood novel got a very (for them) surprise. They received copies of Testament the sequel to Atwood's most famous book The Handmaid's Tale. The dystopian tale has been made into both a film (which Atwood is known to dislike) and an award winning TV programme still currently airing. Weather Atwood is pleased at this happening no knows for sure.
