Hello everyone. Long time members of the sub are primarily book readers who may or may not have seen the movie yet, and with the release of the film we're getting an influx of members who have only seen the movie but not read the book.
We want all fans of any version of The Long Walk to feel welcome here without having to worry about major spoilers from the one they haven't read or seen yet.
You may have noticed that we have set up post flair to designate Movie Discussions and Book Discussions. When a post is flaired as a Movie Discussion, then all book spoilers must be masked. And when a post has a Book Discussion flair, then all movie spoilers must be hidden.
So, for example, in a movie thread, don't go talking about how things are the same or different in the book unless you mark the text as a spoiler. And the same is true for movie spoilers in book threads.
But if the post is flaired as Book & Movie Discussion, then you don't need to mask any spoilers at all (other than in post titles and post content).
Thanks and let us know if you have any questions.
Always face wanted to know how do you hide or mask spoilers in a post

I was SO Fking excited when, after YEARS, this just happened to come to the movies. I was so excited for one of my favorite King books coming to life. Genuinely- this was one of the first I read when I was young, but it made me so emotional. The world building (vagueness included) was just enough to match imagination to expand. And then you add in the characters, and just the right story and background to make you want to rage, cry, fight, run, die.
My ABSOLUTE favorite (2nd to a select few King’s) was so good. And then that foreign land created a voice?!
I was trying to be weird- the truth is, I’m so depressed just reading the reviews and changes that it pisses me off thinking King would accept such changes, but also to have a dream book be vomited across the big screen against your will.
Apologies for my rant. I’m a book-folk til the end of this movie’s existence and then some. READ YALL 🖤
Also this community is spam or I’m drunk? At least I tried to vent. #DONTRUINBOOKS
