The homage of the live action to the original Anime is brilliantly done. What a way to win some of those old fans.

 

[Mad Maluja]

Wow. Fantastic. I didn’t know about this so thanks for letting me k is. Im definitely watching that.

I saw another trailer spot for Cowboy Beebop, and I wasn't half as sure. The action looks so frustratingly slow, like it's being played at the wrong speed.
Maybe that's just me. Maybe this is the price of living with an anime fan who is an actual animator

Isn't it quite slo-mo in the original as well? Having said that, exact replication isn't my bag

I'm looking forward to Leviathan Falls, the last Expanse book.

I'm looking forward to Series 6 on Prime as well, but not as much as the 9th book.

CANCELLED

What a shame. Sadly, horrible fans and horrible actors (yes, looking at Daniella Pineda) ruin fun entertainment.

See, the black actor, Mustafar Shakira, who plays Jet Black, was smart enough to simply ignore the racists. He did not do a song and dance about how racist fans where upset, and the world moved on. Thank you, Mustafar, you make us all proud.

It looks like Bad Wolf will be producing an adaptation of Bernard Cornwell's The Warlord Chronicles, starting with The Winter King. It will run for three seasons, with each series totalling 10 episodes.

Lost City looks really cool, a throwback to the pulp adventures of Indiana Jones type stories.

Prey - a prequel to Predator - will land on Disney+ on 5th August.

Ah, Lost City is the film I’ve seen this rather odd poster for on the side of buses lately. Makes it look like there’s a really low-budget car chase involved.

Oh good that looks great!
It's meant to be channeling films like Romancing the Stone.. but I think high heels are a bit frivolous.

…but I think high heels are a bit frivolous.

To be honest I can’t really tell from the poster whether he’s wearing any.

Touché

I am looking at the physics of the scene, and just like the combat wheelchair, totally impractical and, thus, implausible.
