The background noise, I suppose you think it's music, is obnoxious, and makes it hard to hear.

[@behanseck]

Came here to hear what King had to say. Left because of the music. Too loud. WAY too loud.

[@CharlesFWatson]

Agree. And completely nonsensical - it would have been much more effective to let him speak with no music at all.

[@machaonyoutube]

What's with the hard music though his talking? I can hardly hear Steve talking.

[@harpo345]

The music is irritating and pointless.

[@juns597]

Yep. I stopped cuz of the music.

[@user-oz5ry5yz2b]

I love hearing what Stephen King has to say about story development and writing. But, I did not finish watching this video because the background music is way too loud and obtrusive, I could barely hear what Mr. King had to say.

[@stebbigunn7690]

A friend of mine once told me, "police think that criminals are smart with getting themselfs around things. The police should try meeting a writer" That was after i gave him a small insight in one of the first short storyes i wrote.

[@redronn1031]

Whats the intro song name ?????

[@johnhorchler667]

Do you have any more stuff with Steven king?

[@hasnaa11136]

The music's too loud.

[@patsloyan9755]

Mort Rainey, The Secret Window “ , prequel please 🤍

[@user-mt6hr4qf9n]

I really enjoyed this one although it feels a little unfair of King to choose Seinfeld as an example of a waste of time - it's an absolute masterclass in screenwriting! The ability of those writers (but particularly Larry David) to craft multi-strand plots which converge at the end of a sub-half hour episode is something that a lot of writers would do well to study.

[@BudsCartoon]

A 30 page sitcom screenplay is a joke to real writers.

[@Novilia17]

Hunger Games was a hit when on television or the movies NOT on books. Am I that wrong? Are those publishers back then that wrong? Were we really ahead of our times if we could not put the running man on the wide screen?

[@johnstjohn4705]

The Hunger Games series has more than 100 million copies in print worldwide and spent 260 consecutive weeks on The Times best-seller list. I'd call that success. I read the books first and then watched the movies. I loved both mediums. I thought the books were a master class on novel structure.

[@pimeness5822]

I actually enjoyed reading Catching Fire.

[@marcelolage1395]

I had to stop watching in the middle because the music is unbearable. You can barely hear him at some points

[@Mike-bp2hh]

I'm writing a book about coffee tables

[@arthurfortes8398]

Make a video about tips from Vince Gilligan, Spike Lee or George RR Martin.

[@ScreenwritersNetwork]

Hi Arthur, thanks for your suggestions! A Spike Lee video has already been made and should be published very soon.

[@pokeythescowlingcat6221]

Am I the only one who can hear him talking over the music?

[@vaibhavgore165]

You are not alone

[@doreekaplan2589]

Today, where would he send stories as an unknown writer?

[@doreekaplan2589]

Hes a good writer choosing bad subjects like crime, death, etc that to this writer is not entertainment.
