larry/nick? nope havent seen it. But I shall look for it now - I may have seen it. Its not a couple I would have imagined but one I might enjoy. I never realy developed an opinion of Larry, except that I couldn't relate. And i usually have a thing for singers...
and the Minnie Driver thing *is* a total slip of the subconscious. For some reason my mind totally applies that name to Molly.
And as for the fanfic - it would have to be AU. Another part of the crappy plot I can't figure out. but basically its probaby a major Mary-Sue piece - where Nick has a lover. Cause damnit, Nick needs a lover. Larry, Ralph and Stu have lovers - Nick needs one too (and glen - an idea that *just* formed in my head) but I'm thinking in my lover story that nick doesn't get blown up - but she might be maimed a good bit and left unable to walk except for the need of reconstructive Knee surgery, which obviously the ob/gyn doc they have in town isn't able to do, so she is left with a leg that is practically worthless but that in the old world would haev had a little knee surgeryand been back to normal... I think right now she's considering amputation, not at all inspired by a lengthy mount of Joe-fic thank you very much.
but its so mary-sue-ish, and nick-centered, and there is such a non-existance of The Stand fic (and dear god the thought of Mr. King stumbling upon it just scares me enough to never post a word of it) but this maimed girl will not leave me alone.
The miniseries was based ont eh abridged version of the book. Stephen King decided that if he was giong to have to condense things to 6 hours, he would start from the already condensed work. I am interested to see if your opinion changes after reading the unabridged work...

I'm interested in finding that out too. From what I've peeked, there are some pretty important changes.
As for the fanfic, I've been searching mostly for slash, although I've encountered some other fanfic as well. Crossovers seem popular, but of course they're about *other* characters. (And not that I mind seeing half the people of Buffy dying, but it's not The Stand, you know?) I've found some Nick/Tom, which creeps me out just a little, and then a little bit more because I can actually *see* it.
But of course, the entire story is full of that so-called "homosocial desire" and it's shown a lot more in the film, what with most of the girl characters being downplayed. I've even thought of making an icon of Adam Sorke saying "you're awful cute when you're angry, Stu"...
