"I'm stronger than most."
Yeah, you got that shite right, Gunslinger. I am counting down the days until I can finally rush to the theater and check out the feature adaptation of Stephen King's epic novel series, THE DARK TOWER. From all the footage we have seen thus far, I'm more than down with the film's approach to the material – meaning the movie seems to be a sequel to the novels as opposed to a literal adaptation.
As if I couldn't be more excited, today we three all-new teasers for the film. Well, all-new isn't really the best way to describe it as the first two have little in the way of new footage, but the third is a mini-blast.
The first features The Man in Black taunting The Gunslinger, telling him that "Death always wins." While the second showcases The Gunslinger giving us his "I don't kill with my gun" motto.
My favorite of the three, however, comes at the end of the third teaser, where a team of doctors tell The Gunslinger he should be f*cking dead from all the injuries he sustained during some unseen battle – to which he replies, "I'm stronger than most."
Hell. Yeah.
You can check out all three new teasers below and then let us know how excited YOU are for THE DARK TOWER on Facebook, Twitter, and/or Instagram!

I'm gonna start acting like that little brat from Willy Wonka if I don't get some Winnick/Lee action soon.
