Depends, King does go to the mini series format with TV often because of the piss poor adaptations of his books to movies. Many of his early work was sold cheap and done very, very badly when put on film.
King did not like the original Shinning, personally it was ok but very untrue to the book. Example being kubrick just having to use the damn maze. The remake was pretty damn spot on though. Just lacked the power of Jacks performance.
