Re: Science Fiction, Fantasy, and other TV Snippets

Just in case anyone needs a retro fix, the complete series of Life on Mars and Ashes to Ashes have just appeared on Netflix. Missus and I watched s1e1 last night, it’s still superb and Gene Hunt’s still a legend.

Is that a series or the film? If it’s the film I saw it on Netflix or amazon ( can’t remember)

It was OK, nothing more.

Re: Science Fiction, Fantasy, and other TV Snippets

Series. I've not read much about it.

Ok, I think a series may work, actually work better than a film. I shall put it on my to watch list.

Re: Science Fiction, Fantasy, and other TV Snippets

was that the frenchified version?

Re: Science Fiction, Fantasy, and other TV Snippets

Yes it is.

It started well, then went downhill a bit, and ended without really explaining anything.
Apparently though, there is a Season 2 coming, which will hopefully clear things up a bit.

Re: Science Fiction, Fantasy, and other TV Snippets

The man behind The Mandalorian, Jon Favreau, is already writing the third season.
Production on season two, due late in 2020, wrapped up before the coronavirus forced productions to shutdown.

Academy Award® winner Taika Waititi, who recently won Best Adapted Screenplay for Jojo Rabbit and directed the widely-acclaimed first season finale episode of The Mandalorian on Disney+, will direct and co-write a new Star Wars feature film for theatrical release.

Joining Waititi on the screenplay will be Academy Award® nominee Krysty Wilson-Cairns (1917, Last Night in Soho), who received a BAFTA Award for Outstanding British Film of the Year on the three-time Oscar-winning film, 1917.

In addition, Emmy®-nominated writer Leslye Headland (Russian Doll, Bachelorette) is currently developing a new untitled Star Wars series for Disney+. Headland will write, executive produce, and serve as showrunner for the series, which adds to a growing list of Star Wars stories for Disney’s streaming platform including The Mandalorian, now in post-production on Season Two, and two other previously announced series: one based on Cassian Andor’s life prior to the events of Rogue One: A Star Wars Story and another following the adventures of Obi-Wan Kenobi between Star Wars: Revenge of the Sith and Star Wars: A New Hope.

Release dates for both Waititi’s and Headland’s projects have not yet been announced.

And what was wrong with that? as no film is perfect l will grant you that but it was still in the Premier league of films when it came out in 2017.
