Doctor Sleep is the continuation of the story of Danny Torrance from The Shining. It follows up the events of Stephen King's 1977 novel while being inspired by Stanley Kubrick's legendary 1980 horror film, which is my all time favorite movie.
That being said, there were a lot of things I noticed in Doctor Sleep that you may not have picked up on, like the location from The Shining book that made a little cameo appearance, the reintroduction of Danny Lloyd, who played Danny in The Shining, a connection to another novel in the universe of Stephen King and more.
In this video I'll be discussing all of these potential Things You Missed and more, so if you dare to go back to the Overlook Hotel, then stick around for my full analysis.

About Things You Missed
These videos point out some of the little details you may have missed in your favorite horror franchises, analyse their meaning and why they are noteworthy. Typically, I'll cover Things You Missed in horror movies, and Things You Missed in horror film trailers.
About Doctor Sleep
“Doctor Sleep” continues the story of Danny Torrance, 40 years after his terrifying stay at the Overlook Hotel in The Shining. Ewan McGregor, Rebecca Ferguson and newcomer Kyliegh Curran star in the supernatural thriller, directed by Mike Flanagan, from his own screenplay based upon the novel by Stephen King.
Still irrevocably scarred by the trauma he endured as a child at the Overlook, Dan Torrance has fought to find some semblance of peace. But that peace is shattered when he encounters Abra, a courageous teenager with her own powerful extrasensory gift, known as the “shine.” Instinctively recognizing that Dan shares her power, Abra has sought him out, desperate for his help against the merciless Rose the Hat and her followers, The True Knot, who feed off the shine of innocents in their quest for immortality.
Forming an unlikely alliance, Dan and Abra engage in a brutal life-or-death battle with Rose. Abra’s innocence and fearless embrace of her shine compel Dan to call upon his own powers as never before-at once facing his fears and reawakening the ghosts of the past.

Also, fun fact that the movie only slightly brings up; Danny actually is Abra's uncle because her mother is his half sister which is why she said it wasn't a total lie for her to call him her uncle (Jack had an affair prior to the Shining, which actually does add another layer to the relationship he had with his family.)
It also adds to the point that the Shining may be genetic.
Strange how they never really meet.
@@CZsWorld It's probably because Jack was never in the mom's life, so she and Danny would be strangers to each other besides blood relation. I think Stephen King might've only introduced it to establish why Danny and Abra had such a strong connection even as a little girl.
I do wish it had been brought up more in the story though, since it factors into Jack's relationship with Wendy and Danny.
@@Thewhitequeen0 also, the only reason Danny finds out is that Abra's great-grandmother (Momo) psychically reveals it to him as she is dying. Another reason why Abra's mother didn't know about Danny is because her mother died in a car crash when she was little and was raised by her grandmother. Her grandmother refused to tell her about her father most likely because she wanted Abra's mother to believe her own mother was perfect, not that she was the result of a one-night-stand
I really wish the movie had correctly explained it. It makes so much sense them being related. Or else, she simply contacted a random dude for help and that's WEIRD as f
That's awesome!
You missed Dan's limping run after Abra. It's almost identical to Jack's limping run after Danny in The Shining. They're even limping on the same leg
Caught it right away
Danny Lloyd (original Danny Torrance) is the guy at the little league game that keeps saying to watch out for Jacob Tremblay's character ("the baseball boy"), that he's going to be big someday.
Suse715 I recognized him right away!
I had no idea he had a cameo so when I saw him I was almost like "😮Danny!" but then I remembered I was in a fancy cinema in Qatar and this wouldn't do. However, I tweeted Danny Lloyd right after the movie about it because I mean, you have to, right? He retweeted me ❤ He's *so nice*.
Well spotted
That’s dope
HA HA HA HA HA......UGH
Ewan McGregor as Dan is a casting choice that I love so much.
Same
"Take your medicine!" is also said by Danny at the beginning of the movie, not just at the end. He says this during the bar fight scene at the very start while bashing the guy's face in with a que ball.

**spoilers contained in this comment**
Jack was wearing a red jacket, but Dan was wearing a blue-ish gray jacket, and their plaid shirts look almost inverse of each other. I think it has a hidden meaning where, although their fates were similar, the way in which they went out were totally opposite. In the movies, Jack had frozen outside and never snapped out of his murderous rampage, whereas Dan died when the Overlook boiler exploded and he had snapped out of his phase I think twice (once to tell Abra to run, and again when he settled down on the floor and saw Wendy in his final moments). I think it's also interesting about the jacket Dan wore in Doctor Sleep; it is blue to some degree, which is typically associated with the cold, as opposed to Jack's red jacket, associated with heat. Now I don't necessarily like the movie as an adaptation to King's sequel (there were characters and scenes they made less relevant in the transition from book to movie), but I think it's interesting how the Doctor Sleep movie managed to reference both versions of The Shining (Kubrick vs King) and be able to create a film that encompasses both universes that were created.
1. When Dan first comes to Frazier there's a sign that says "Elm Street"
2. In the bar fight flashback Dan says to the guy he's beating up "You're going to take your medicine!"
3. The scene where the Overlook is talking to Abra through Dan, the fact that he stops the axe mid-swing and has his brief moment of sanity telling her to gtfo, the whole "The boiler is going to explode and set the place on fire", and Abra talking about the fire purifying the hotel and knowing that Dan would be okay are all from the Shining book's climax
4. Abra saying that technically Dan is her uncle is a reference to a larger subplot where it's revealed that Dan is, in fact, Abra's uncle due to her mom being his sister
5. In the last conversation with Dick, Dick says "Ka is a wheel", which is a phrase that pops up a lot in the Dark Tower series. In the Doctor Sleep book, Dan offhandedly says "There are other worlds than these" in a conversation with Abra
6. Snakebite Andi isn't just called that because of her marking people with snakebite tattoos. In the book she has a tattoo of a rattlesnake on her forearm (she's also in her thirties)
7. When Dan is walking around the Overlook to wake it up, she goes down the hallway that the ghost twins appeared during the Shining movie, except the hallway is empty. They appear when Abra is running around, but I thought that was a cool little detail.
8. When Dan's talking with Jack, he brings up the fact that he and Wendy moved to Florida because they never wanted to see snow again. In the book he's really hesitant about staying in Frazier because he's always avoided mountains due to what he went through at the Overlook. And there are a couple of times in the rest of the book where he can't sleep well due to winter storms reminding him of the storm that hit the Overlook, which snowed his family in.
9. I personally thought that the scene where Danny was messing with the boiler pressure was shot very similarly to the scene in the movie where Jack takes out pieces of the radio
Tall Geek pithiest
This isn’t really related to The Shining but in the book Firestarter the dads name is Andy and he can ‘push’ people, like snakebite Andi (making them sleep with telepathy) I just thought that was cool and I think Rose says “We haven’t seen a pusher in years” something like that.
My mom tried to stop me from watching this movie so I ....CORRECTED her
Your mom isn't a cook by chance?
Good job!
How old were you?
when I hear Ewan McGregor's name, I instantly think of "Hello There"
I think Obi Wan.
@@CZsWorld I also think of Obi Wan Kenobi. Can you do a History of Dan Torrance?
@@prestonlim5662 I will, but it won't be this year.
@@CZsWorld alright,I will be waiting.

I just saw Doctor sleep yesterday, and I got to admit.... I was impressed!👌👍
Same also I love how we see how much Dan learned to use his powers by tricking Rose when they were at the hotel.And how strong Abra really was from the fact the Rose kept underestimating her
Another thing about room 217 is that before Stephen King wrote the shining he stayed at Stanley Hotel (what the shining is based off of) in room 217. He claimed to see a ghost and apparently had a dream or vision in a way and that is how he wrote the shining or at least that's what the papers say
What I noticed:
- Above Abra's bed, her toys and letter 'A' spell out 'hat' which is placed right above her head. Every time we're introduced to the room, there's always a wide shot that shows it.
Also,
- The cat that knows when the death of the patients will occur, is based on a true story
The cat’s name, Azrael, means the angel of death. So yeah, the cat knows.
@@barbaramckee2028 same name as the cat from The Smurfs
I caught a few references to other Stephen King works in Doctor Sleep, like The True Knot's eyes glowing silver similarly to how the vampires eyes did in the 1979 Salem's Lot. Also when Rose gets her hand caught in Abra's memory-file cabinet, she practically degloves her hand to pull it free, like how Jessie does in Gerald's Game (also adapted by Mike Flanagan)
We see the glowing eyes with Pennywise in "it" also. The deadlights.
Also the fact that they mostly target kids when it could be anyone with the Shine. Sounds a little similar to another King villain, but I can't quite put my finger on IT.
Halloran makes a brief mention of Ka during one of his conversations with Dan.
Ka is a wheel.
The bus Abra rides to NH was called Tet Transportation or something which is a reference to Ka-Tet from The Dark Tower series. Dick also tells Dan that Ka is a wheel.
Jack wears a red jacket with a blue-ish shirt, Danny wears a blue jacked with a red shirt.
Wasn't Danny wearing the same thing at the overlook hotel that his dad wore on the day he tried to murder them? Or at least similar? It seemed that way at least!
No, not in style or color. HOWEVER, after Danny unleashed the ghosts and they take him over and begins to chase Abra with the ax, he is pretty much mimicking the same movement as his father did when Jack chased Danny when he was a kid.
Yes it was similar.
When Abra, and Danny visit the Overlook Hotel and step in the boiler room, there's a picture of two twin child girls.
I think that last conversation between Abra and Dan had that slight nod with “you stand.” Or I could just be seeing stuff that isn’t there lol
Actually, in the Kubrick film the character of Horace Derwent is the ghost in the tuxedo that Wendy sees in one of the rooms with the other ghost that is wearing that creepy bear suit. He was played by an actor named Brian V. Towns. That was one little detail that the film adaptation of Doctor Sleep got wrong. I honestly have no idea who the "injured guest" ghost in the Kubrick film is supposed to be even though he does say " Great party, isn't it? " which is what the ghost of Horace Derwent says in the novel of The Shining.
Bradley the baseball boy. Was wearing a number 19 jersey. This is a huge connection to King’s Dark Tower series. Also there is a reference to Dandelo as Snakebite Andy exits the theatre, another homage to The Dark Tower. Furthermore, the bus Fanny rides is Tet Transit a homage to the ka-tet, another thing Dark Tower fans/Constant Readers would understand.
While Amber is finding Danny in the town square a street sign can be seen and it says “Elm Street”
The LOUD MOUTH show I saw that one too! Great catch!
I saw that today! ( for the second time lol)
*Abra*
Nice. Can you tell me the exact clip?
I didn't watched the movie, but in the trailers Rose The Hat talk with a little girl at the shore of a lake. That can be an omage for the movie Frankenstein (1931) because it refers the scene in which Frankenstein throw a little girl in wather. That can't be a coincidence because they said that Doctor Sleep is influenced by Frankenstein.
You're right, it's deliberate.
Did anyone else catch the elm street reference when Danny first gets off the bus ?
Of course. Nightmare is my favorite horror movie
LOVE the Kubrick stare, it’s so creepy!
Great work CZ, I would never catch half the stuff you find! Thanks heaps 😁👍🏻
I... corrected... them.
Actually, I found that he missed a lot of stuff. Sorry, CZ.
It's called the *narcissist stare* and is a very real thing. Consider yourself lucky you haven't been exposed to it.. Stop applying it to Kubrick ffs!
CZsWorld the best scene in the film! And the best in the novel!
You forgot the dark tower references in the Marquee and the name of the bus
One visual reference I noticed was when Dan swung the ax at Rose, and later Abra, which is the one Jack had in The Shining. Not only is the ax an obvious reference, but the way the swings were shot were very reminiscent, if not perfect recreations of how Jack swinging the ax in The Shining were shot
Just got home from the cinema. One line that had me reacting big was the one that Ka is a wheel.
Love the connections you make here. The Shining is my favorite movie, too. Unfortunately I was one of 8 people in the audience opening night at my local theater. Hope the movie gains popularity
I think it is. I went last night & the screen was about half full, which is good for my multiplex, not many people go there really. I reckon this film will do better as time goes on & will probably make it's money back when it comes to home release.
So people who "shine" keep memories in file cabinets in large spaces. I dont remember it in the book but am i to understand the friends from dream catcher were taught the shine from Duddits?
Just saw this a few hours ago god damn was this a modern Classic
If you do another video on this you should bring up how the ending of the Doctor Sleep movie brings back the ending of the Shining novel for those that did not read it with Abra standing in for young Danny Torrance and Dan standing in for Jack Torrance. Even down to Abra saying he is a "false face" and saving herself with the mic drop of mentioning the boiler.
In the early scenes featuring the True Knot, where Rose captures the small girl and eats the flower, we see another member of the True Knot in a panning shot, shown to be wearing an outfit very similar to that worn by Wendy Torrance early on in the Shining, and Danny in some of the scenes wherein he rides the tricycle around in the Overlook. Specifically, blue overalls or dress worn over a long sleeve red shirt or sweater.
I thought it was brilliant how wendy's ears poked out of her hair like shelly duvall had back in the original...also, like if you feel sorry for Rose. The whole movie she underestimated Abra & Danny and her A** got kicked every single time she tried something....kinda like gargamel in the smurfs lol
I'm just liking for your Shelly Duvall comment, I found rose annoying
When someone asks me what the haunted room in the shining is, I always respond “217”. And the miniature town is in the Doctor Sleep Novel!
When Danny and Abra are in the Overlook hotel Danny is wearing an outfit almost completely identical to the one that Jack wore when he tried to kill his family, the only difference is that Jack had a red flannel but Danny was wearing a blue flannel. Also when I saw this in theaters and it came to the scene with Jack, the way they were building up to it literally everyone in the theater was on the edge of their seats eager to see Jack Nicholson reprise his role, and then when we saw our wasn't him and there were these collective groans of disappointment from everyone in the theater.
Frankenstein reference with the little girl by the water with Rose. I half expected Rose to drown her.
Ditto....I was ready to shut my eyes....the tension was horrendous
*spoilers*
I just wonder why they decided to kill off Danny at the end of the movie. It was so sad! In the book he was alive after the chaos in the overlook hotel.
Because the Hotel blew up in the original book??
Robby so it’s to pay homage to the original ending from the shining?? I just really found it sad. I loved Danny’s character !
I really liked Danny and I kinda teared up when he died ;(
Sam __17__ I think I would’ve preferred the original ending where he goes to Abras 15th birthday party. He’s 15 years sober.
Just got back from a screening, and I really like how they essentially got to do two things from the book that didn't make the original movie: When Danny is overwhelmed and about to kill Abra and she brings him back for a moment saying "You're not Dan, you're the hotel" it's the redemption moment from the book where Danny tells Jack (I think pretty much the same thing) "You're not my Dad, you're the hotel," and he comes back a moment to say I love you and tell him to run. Also the boiler blowing up torches the entire place as King intended.
You should do a video about the differences between Kubrick's The Shining and Stephen King's 1997 short tv series The Shinning.
Wendy Flores one was great and the other was an abortion. The end.
NowThis Nerd did that.
@@macmikemo I holeheartedly agree
@@arfansthename i gotta look for it then
I'm really surprised that dreamcatcher isn't talked about that much or connected to it. Seems like a great movie and they grew up in Derry
DERRY
And IT.
Hey, I do have a point that connects to your point about the Stair blocking scene. However, this deals a lot with acting in general - in college, I took an acting class. One thing we had to do in this acting class was create a scene simply using blocking per-provided.
This ended up making a lot of different types of scenes, some were pretty normal (husband and wife arguing over an affair) to messed-up and creative (a female mafia enforcer going after a client that didn't have the money, going as far as to threaten his family if he doesn't get her the money). The thing is that basing a scene off blocking only can have all sorts of crazy results despite the environment.
So, I have to assume that the writers didn't just make the blocking the same but mirrored the scene almost completely with the exception of characters and exact wording from "The Shining" and translated it to the situation in "Doctor Sleep".
Horace Derwent, in the novel, seems to be a thinly-veiled disguised version of Howard Hughes. Just like his alter ego in DIAMONDS ARE FOREVER (the movie), 'Willard White', he is trapped in a hotel as the unwitting guest of organized crime -- i.e. Blofeld/the Mafia = the creepy ghosts who currently control the hotel . . .
Speaking of Gerald's Game, Dr. Dalton (Bruce Greenwood), Grandpa Flick (Carl Struycken) and "Lloyd" the bartender/Jack Torrence (Henry Thomas) were previously cast in that King adaptation.
So in the book the shining we find out Tony was actually future Danny, so sense future Danny is called Doctor sleep and a shorter way of saying doctor is Doc, did future Danny some how manipulate his parents into calling him his nickname in the future?
Tony remains an enigma in the movies..
Wow, number 15 showed some great attention to detail
Burger King Foot Lettuce
I would LOVE to see and hear what Jack Nicholson's reaction to this sequel is... Also I think there is a little bit of Firestarter characteristics (1982) in the young female character that can make people do what she is saying for them to do.
Actually Charlie's dad in Firestarter is named Andy and his talent is to "push" people to do what he wants. Snakebite Andi has the same talent. You were close!
The ending of the movie differs from the book, but Doctor Sleep's film ending is very similar the Shinning novel ending.
Was it just me, or was the word HAT spelled out above Abras bed?
I notice one of the true knot women wear the same dress (red and blue) Wendy Torrance in (the shining) in the scene when she received a call from jack Torrance when he got the job in the hotel (Sorry for my bad English).
Hey dude your English is just fine.
Yep, Danny Lloyd WAS one of them men talking at the little-League game
SPOILERS AHEAD
Anyone else kinda have the idea of Dan
Projecting his mom to himself at the end to comfort himself in death like he did for others? It’s probably just how “they aren’t really gone” and she was “actually there” for Danny
Pretty sure that was Abra doing that to Comfort him.
Joshua Jewell see I don’t think so, since she was thinking he was gonna make it out and she wouldn’t know his mom, you very well could be right but I think it was him doing it
My day has been horrible so this video is a relief. Good job my dude
They probably weren't in Florida for Dick because they only want children for their pure shine (although I'm still trying to figure out how they didn't detect Danny lol. Maybe because of the Overlook?)
True
I figured they were looking for Danny, but didn't get to him because that was around the time he was trying not to shine.
Let's not forget that that the shine ran in Halloran's family, so he could have had a strong defense against detection ( otherwise the knot would have nabbed him when he was a child).
This is probably why the knot missed Danny, as Halloran kept teaching him defenses.
I just gotta say, thank you so much for doing closed captions!
Great video, I hope you do more on the shinning and all connected stories.
I don't know why I never put this together:
JACK Torrence......DANNY Torrence......
= JACK DANIELS.
I love your videos and horror history! I even bought raycord earbuds because airpods were too expensive. Love you Zac!
Thanks so much! I know you'll enjoy your new earbuds!!
Please make an episode about Carrie, the 1976 one, it's my favourite movie!
8:04 Big Chungus was a good meme.
Ironically, the ending of the movie Doctor Sleep takes more from the ending of the Shining book, since in the book, Jack resists the hotel to such a degree that he ends up essentially killing himself, only for the hotel to take over his body and still send him rampaging after Danny and Wendy until the boiler explodes and destroys both Jack and the Overlook. This is almost copied beat for beat with Danny in Jack's shoes in the Doctor Sleep movie, only Abra and Danny are strong enough that she's able to bring him back and he's able to prevent the Overlook from correcting the boiler.
The True Knot wouldn't want Hallorann, he's too old. They want children
mistyapril29 in a way they did want him. They ate fear and screams, so they just chose children because they were easy to scare and abduct.
@@archieyiu7111 sounds like Pennywise. ;)
@@Suse715 it is Stephen King and he does have a running theme throughout his books. I wouldn't be surprised if the Losers Club in IT actually all have the shining
@@archieyiu7111 agreed.
It's called harvesting children, Hollywood is all about that...
To keep them younger....
Just another excuse to make a ritual movie....it's creepy...to say the least...what's that say about King....?? Total creep man.... freak boy...
In the novel, Horace Derwent was the guy getting serviced by the guy in the animal costume.
In Doctor Sleep Halloway is played by Carl Lumbly who voiced Martian Manhunter in Justice League/Unlimited
Love every vid!
Thank you! Love every comment!
CZsWorld thank you too
Then why the hell haven't you loved mind
it's stranger things bitch what do you mean?
Yooooo I almost choked on my drink when you said “correct” like that. Brilliantly done!
Dan is reading the same issue of 'Playgirl' at the hospice desk as Jack is reading in the Overlook lobby while waiting for Mr. Ullman
Violet (the little girl from the beginning of Doctor Sleep) was the girl from the bleachers in It Chapter 2. Also, Doctor Sleep starts just like It Chapter 1 with a child being murdered. Stephen King-isms.
She's like the new Sean Penn.
The little girl in "IT: Chapter 2" was played by an actress named Ryan Kiera Armstrong. Violet McGraw is Violet in "Dr. Sleep."
Love your videos!
You missed Danny lloyd' s cameo
love the small details
Just finished the book DS and it was better than anything omg
Would love to see this revisited!
Danny is reading the same copy of playgirl that jack did
The wonderful thing about the use of It's All Forgotten Now in The Shining is that it has an echo and sounds spooky like ghosts singing. Kubrick is such a masterful genius.
The Kubrick Stare is sure to start up a conversation.
You mean the *narcissist stare* .. Google it!
In one of the final scenes at the overlook rose is walking up the stairs towards Danny who is holding an axe, she is raising her hands to her sides, mirroring jack Nicholson in the shining just as danny is mirroring his mother
One question I had at the end of the movie is where's the man in the bear suit ?
He couldn't bear it.
dj MAGGOt I kept looking for him too, such a creepy iconic scare character
They didn't bring him back because he sucked.
@Kangarooster☕
I have listened to the shining on audio by have not listen to doctor sleep yet
The originial Danny was at the baseball game. He was the guy talking to the other man about the kid that was pitching and later eaten by the vampires.
I didn't know
Macaulay Culkin was so into The Shining! Great video!
The red book on the hotel manager's desk is now replaced by a red file folder in Dr Sleep. Interesting...
Was the Red Book from The Shining on the interviewer's desk in Doctor Sleep? Or any red book?
Yes, there was a red binder.
From Kubrick’s The Shining, the Red Book on the desk was Carl Jung’s The Red Book. In Doctor Sleep, the red binder didn’t have the same gravitas.
I honestly think we’re gonna be finding little tidbits here and there for a long time. That being said, I saw the movie last night and can say it was a GOOD movie. The casting for Wendy was SPOT ON although Halloran could’ve been a bit better. I think it’s a testament to the acting prowess of the original movie’s cast being exceptional. The little nods to the past in this movie were almost like seeing an old friend again which will make it re-watchable for sure. But honestly, it was just missing something IMO. There was not the sense of foreboding and dread that was present in the original movie, that almost Hitchcockian vibe that something terrible is coming and I think that’s a nod to the genius that was Stanley Kubrick. I truly don’t know why King didn’t like his adaptation, I honestly think it is one of the greatest movies ever made. Did anyone else wish they had spent more time at the Overlook in the new film? I think they missed an opportunity to really dive into some of those characters or the period vibe that the gold room gives off for instance. So much potential, but doesn’t quite reach it.
Yes, especially the red restroom scene back to original the Shining movie. I love the restroom. Awesome color.
Jack is the one that could have been better recast
In the end of the shining, 1990's version, it is mentioned that Tony is the older version of Danny. Is Tony the second personality or that Tony traveled back in time and only appear to his younger self to warn him about the hotel?
Not in the movies, no. Tony remains a mystery
I loved the Pokémon reference. A psychic named Abra and the first thing we see her do is a trick with spoons.
I noticed that the power Snakebite Andi had where she pushed people was similar to Andy McGee’s in Firestarter.
In the movie, it was DANNY who reached out to Halloran, NOT vice versa
Whoa I’m reading the book right now
This is late, but when the true knot and Violet are leaving the theater, a poster can be seen of Dandelo from the dark tower novels.
I was so pleasantly surprised by this movie! I expected it to be cringy Kubrik fan service, but they actually pulled it off.* And, history repeated itself. I liked this movie better than the book, too. Note: I think the casting of Wendy, young Danny and Jack was perfect. Bringing in Nicholson or someone doing a broad impression of him would have turned the whole thing into a stupid pun. The performance in DS was perfect, focused on the threat and the menace of Jack, not some childish, sniggering fan joke.
*With one exception. The Grady daughters are not and have never been "twins." They're obviously different ages visually and in dialog in The Shining movie and they're not twins in any book. Arggh!!!! Just because sisters -- who are obviously different heights and ages -- have matching dresses does not mean they're twins!
Fun fact: Jack was played by Elliot from E. T.
I noticed at the end of the movie we’re Dan was talking to Abra in mirror on the right was the letter “R” backwards like redrum. It made me think was there more letters hidden somewhere throughout the film that I missed
Danny being the spectator is at the baseball game, he's the one who says the kids really good
i also noticed that rose hits danny in the same leg that jack limped on so they both had the same terrifying run
Hey,can you maybe make a video where your explaining what's the shining(shine)or steam and if it's possible that it exsists.I know it probably doesn't but it would be so cool to hear theories and you talking about it❤
I really wish they could have had Nicholson do a line reading and have a stand-in where they do a deep fake of Nicholson's face on the stand-in.
Seeing this flim tomorrow hype
Also first, congrats
Don't watch the trailers and you'll probably enjoy it!

@@CZsWorld I did I enjoy it
Dr. Sleep is one of my favorites now.
Thanks for the promo for privacy.com! I used their $5 credit to print 100 pages of research for a paper on transgression in cult film.
One awesome movie. So well done.
Hey CZ, Would love to see a deep dive into Kubricks Shining!
In the end scene with Abra and Dan, Dan says "shine on" which is the John Lennon song where King got the idea to name the power Danny had. Also Dan tells Abra she must take The Stand against evil. I don't think it was a coincidence.
