Jessica Huang from Fresh off the Boat TV series, said this in response to Honey quoting the movie. I totally feel the same way.

    Just my opinion, but Stephen King will never be remembered as a genius in this timeline. I really can't even believe I have to say that.

    I get that you like his books. But com'on. He's a popular pulp fiction writer. King is a good writer. He isn't a genius.

    Kubrick however, may well be remembered as a genius.

    I recently read The Shining for the first time, having seen the movie a few times.

    Yeah, I get why King was pissy. Look how Kubrick massacred his boy.
