Werthead Posted June 28, 2022 Share Posted June 28, 2022 They've cast Kyle MacLachlan for the Fallout show, along with Walton Goggins and Ella Purnell. The casting so far is pretty good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Werthead Posted June 30, 2022 Share Posted June 30, 2022 Amazon have released the first trailer for Paper Girls, which is odd considering it's debuting in one month's time (29 July). Interesting that they seemed to change Tales from the Loop pretty thoroughly because they were scared of being accused of ripping of Stranger Things (despite the source material predating ST by several years), but here they seem to have said fuck it and have leaned into the similarities (despite PG predating ST by not nearly as much).

I'm mostly interested in this because it has the Halt and Catch Fire creator/showrunner duo of Chris Canteell and Chris Rogers collaborating again on it. On the surface, the two shows seem to be very different in genre/theme (similar time period, though). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RhaenysBee Posted July 16, 2022 Share Posted July 16, 2022 Oh hey, there’s a Jon Snow spin-off now! There’s not a chance in hell I would ever watch it, but what a funny idea. Well I’m really looking forward to seeing how these spin-offs perform and I can’t wait for the YouTube reviews. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A Jon Smow spinoff sounds like the most boring and pointless thing ever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Try harder. im looking forward to every episode, Jon Snow sends out scouting parties to look for White Walkers. Every episode they come back and someone says ‘ I don’t think there are any White walkers’ and they get told to keep trying. That’s 3 seasons of filler right there. Plus imagine the possibilities of a multi season arc on grain storage. This shit is gonna win emmys Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deadlines? What Deadlines? Posted July 21, 2022 Share Posted July 21, 2022 I just realized that in calendar year 2023 we get: Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse GotG Vol. 3 Dune Part 2 Nolan's Oppenheimer If at least one of these doesn't get you excited, you're the wrong kind of weirdo.

Werthead Posted July 21, 2022 Share Posted July 21, 2022 This looks unexpectedly fun, in a cheesy kind of way. I feel every DM will be watching the party avoid a displacer beast by diving into a gelatinous cube and sighing, "Yup, that's the stupid shit my party does." The black dragon breathing acid over the battlefield and it looks like vomit is lore-accurate (it even touches off a huge explosion), the city of Neverwinter looks good, and the druid tiefling taking out a whole platoon of bad guys by shapeshifting into an owlbear is good fun. Hugh Grant as a villain (probably not the villain though) also looks great. Interesting and possibly very smart move to use a party without the requisite elf and dwarf combo. Just humans and a tiefling (maybe one of the humans is a half-elf, not sure). Avoids comparisons with LotR. I do think after Taika Waititi and now this, we need a halt on using classic rock songs in film trailers. Like, give it a rest for a while, okay? I did feel sorry for Ed Greenwood, though. He created the Forgotten Realms 55 years ago and has waited all his life to see it brought to life in a live-action movie, and the trailer hits the same week he lost his wife Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although I'll always love the Suicide Squad trailer with Bohemian Rhapsody. Too bad the film happened. Judging by that fire breathing dragon, "Whole Lotta Rosie" might have been a better song choice. They had me at "Owl Bear". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
