Don't see anything to state its going to be bad but I don't see anything showing its going to be good either. I think if they wanted more human interaction with sci-fi and drama they should have spent the money and done a Gears of War TV show or Metro.

Bluewolf Posted January 6, 2022 Share Posted January 6, 2022 An 'Alien' series is currently on the go... If there’s one thing you can count on in the Alien extended universe, it’s this everlasting truth: the Xenomorph always comes back. You can blast it out of an airlock or light it up with a flamethrower, but try as you might, you can’t keep a good alien down. So if you thought 2017’s Alien: Covenant was the last we’d see of the being, we have some good, if inevitable, news. Fargo showrunner Noah Hawley is developing an Alien television series, meaning that the Xenomorph will be back to inspire fright and disgust once again—this time in weekly instalments. The show is still in early development, but in a new interview with US Esquire, Hawley teases an interpretation that blends the franchise’s classic creature feature structure with a modern parable about corporate greed.

Cicero Posted January 6, 2022 Share Posted January 6, 2022 Yeah don't think I'll be interested. Alien Covenant rubbed me off the wrong way. They had a brilliant thing going with Prometheus but Ridley Scott couldn't fucking help himself and made another Xenomorph film for the umpteenth time rather than expanding on the Engineer universe. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I recognized his voice right away though. Helps that I re-watched his dialogues and monologues in The Thin Red Line several hundred times. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderator Tommy Posted February 3, 2022 Moderator Share Posted February 3, 2022 Louis Hofmann who played Jonas in Dark has been cast for a Netflix limited series based on Anthony Doerr's novel "All the light we cannot see", alongside Mark Ruffalo and Hugh Laurie. That's big. Really happy for him. He was great in Dark. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I tried to watch this documentary last night but to be honest it's really fucking boring. I also don't find him a very likeable person from the old footage of before he was exposed so I don't get why he was such a national treasure. I understand the philanthropy and stuff but he just seems like a weird guy in a way that would already have made me uncomfortable if I didn't know what was going on behind the scenes. The amount of footage there is of him hanging out with the royals as well is sadly very much a red flag for me. There is a lot of rotten goings on beneath the surface of the British establishment and upper classes that Savile attached himself to, and you don't even have to dig too far to find it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bluewolf Posted April 8, 2022 Share Posted April 8, 2022 Looks like a reboot for the original series.. looking at the trailer they have tried to go for the old style feel it used to have but not convinced by the Captain who seems to be in there for light entertainment purposes and that might wear a bit thin after 3 episodes.. We shall see 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We shall see Apparently it's a prequel to the original series, and the Captain is supposed to be Christopher Pike, the predecessor of Captain Kirk. I'll probably try to watch it and quit after a few episodes, just like with every other Star Trek show I tried watching Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
