while i am relieved to see Disney/Lucasfilms execs (sorta) stick their necks out, this also smells a lot like Disney trying to advance deflect all criticism of what may well be a truly awful tv show, so they can accuse anyone who dislikes it of being racist/sexist/whatever. (see also: Star Trek: Discovery, that awful S…

Not quite sure how Liam will do, but I just keep thinking about the sparkley vampire that turned out to be a great batman. I have hope.

28 Months Later - not sure why they skipped this one

The “zombies” in the movie weren´t zombies at all. They were rabid humans. The ending of the first movie showed a whole bunch of them dying from starvation. I assumed most would die out within a year or two, considering winter, disease and other factors, like being actively hunted down and neutralised.

28 Seconds Later - a fun sex romp, with zombies

28 Daves Later

Where a zombie is cured of the virus after eating twenty eight guys named Dave.

I love your alternate ending. Very similar to the great ending to Ex Machina. Plus your ending would have left an opening for a sequel if the movie did well (it did not.)

I mean, the movie was dumb as a box of rocks, but completely inverting the message to “LOL they were right to genocide” doesn’t really fix that.

i did not know this movie came out. i remember seeing a trailer and that was it.

Wait, they didn’t even do an inspection?! Isn’t this something similar to Jeffrey Dahmer? The cops were ‘yeah ok but just keep it down”.

“they bought it. ok, back to work”

WTF, why didn’t they just break the driver (or passenger) window and open the door instead of bashing the front windshield and handing the baby through the broken glass??

There was a short-lived show called “Kings” that was the story of David in an alt-history present. Ian McShane was the King Saul. Sebastian Stan was the Jonathan. Goliath was a literal tank.

Everyone gave up when Galadriel decided to swim across the entire ocean back to middle earth. Or when the Harfoots decided to be jerks to their own kind when their society was already at the brink of nothingness. Or when the grand armada from Numenor to save middle earth was three (3!) tiny ships. Or when that grand…

I thought Andor was very good and worth the investment. On the other hand, Rings of Power was pretty tedious from start to finish. If I wasn’t a nerd with fond memories of devouring Tolkein as a child, I would have bailed as well.

Everybody’s immediately jumping to the conclusion that Disney will recast Majors... but I dunno. This is all feeling really shaky.

The New Republic fell so quickly in the sequels because J.J. Abrams wanted Rebels Vs. Empire 2.0 and didn’t give a shit about exploring a situation that wasn’t 100% the same as the OT.

It was very very dark but a good show I thought - Millenium was hard to market I think. 

Also Eli’s adult guardian was a paedo. In the book he is explicitly caught with CP, becomes a pariah, and Eli was using an already evil man to kill people.

This is the case in the original novel as well.
