Oh no doubt they could, but I believe that’s a short term solution. Eventually those over there will start wanting the same thing if they realize that their movie or TV series is making bank for studios and streaming networks over here.
While I do enjoy The Boys, and the concept of this is interesting, it’s not the show that makes me hesitant, it’s the actors. I just don’t know if I would care at all for any of them. I see cameo spots for the actors from the original show, it gets my attention, then when it goes back to the college kids, they lost my…
You know what, he’s got enough of optimism to cover himself. I’ll just side with you. He’s boned.
This isn’t surprising. Back in the 20th Century shows like The Brady Bunch, Gilligan’s Island, and what not were successful. Before streaming, studios wanted their shows to last long enough for syndication. Back then it was pretty much the same story. A popular show ran a few seasons, got cancelled, but was still hit…
I’m glad it’s successful for the fans. I never cared for the anime or got into the manga, and from what I see on the live action, I just don’t care for it. But it has an audience, and everyone deserves entertainment that fits their style. I’m happy for their success.
“...people are really, really fed up with franchises and the infinite growth model.”
Well, I personally felt it was better than the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull. Overall it was a passable movie and not as bad as it could’ve been. I remember an article before it was released in theaters saying the original cut was ridiculously longer. But I got the feeling there were a lot of scenes cut that contained…
After seeing the trailer for Onyx the Fortuitous and the Talisman of Souls, it didn’t make me laugh. It did give off a passion project vibe. It suddenly reminded of the movie that was forgettable until I saw this trailer. Knights of Badassdom. I Didn’t hate it, didn’t like it, but didn’t regret watching it out of…
That all just seems like normal feelings. Which is kind of a relief in itself. Now it’s about who’s going to move on with their career with steady gigs, who is going to end up disappearing into obscurity, and who is going to end up as nothing more than tabloids and controversy while always being referred to as the…
I wonder if Peacekeeper is going to make jokes about Ezra in season 2 the way he made jokes about Aquaman. Though I’m not happy learning that season 2 won’t be around for a few more years.
I gave it a shot, and found it did deserve the failures it got. The story itself wasn’t so terrible. It’s just that I’ve seen better on other movies and games with the same concept.
I wasn’t a fan of The Peripheral. I did enjoy the first episode, but then after that it just wasn’t much for entertainment. But I saw the potential, despite a slightly wonky season 1 ending, for improvement. When I found it was renewed for season 2, I would’ve watched it out of curiosity to see if it can improve from…
Well, first off, I almost never see articles mentioning Foundation. Not much from the previous season or the current season since it’s already aired 6 episodes. So, it’s interesting that io9 states something now after all this time, but really does no recaps for this and plenty of other shows.
I’m not sure. The way the show ended, it was satisfying enough as a full arc for the characters. I would be fine if it was a one and done season. I guess if it were a movie, which is really just two episodes worth, then that would be cool to see Steven Yeun and Ali Wong in sort of an epilogue movie for their…
When I started reading and viewing videos that break down the different factions, orders, cults, groups, etc. I just came to the conclusion for myself that the Force is just an element. Like fire and water, it can be used for both good and evil purposes. Jedis, Sith, and everything else in and out of canon are just…
Well if I was there to hear his new pleas, I would snarkily respond with layers of truth to him by saying don’t discriminate global movies. There’s plenty of garbage not made by Hollywood from countries and movie industries across the globe.
I’m a Mass Effect fan, and I have never heard any of these things in conversation. At least face to face whenever Mass Effect is brought up. Which is seldom brought up. Maybe these kind of things are said online. But the last one, we’ll never see aliens in our lifetime, is actually a pretty common topic brought up…
Since I never read the books, nor play the games, for me the plot hole was how much they diverted from the material. To paraphrase Homer Simpson, “That’s ingenious...wait, no. It’s complicated and unnecessarily elaborate.”
I’ll say this much about 2049. History has seemed to repeat itself in some aspects. Both Blade Runner and Blade Runner: 2049 were not box office successes. It had a large love it or hate it response.
