Sorry getting off my rant box now.  |
Thanks, now I can get on it!!
I agree *entirely*! The "prelude to Dune" stuff stinks and, in the worst Star Trek traditions, pi$$es all over the continuity of the series.
I never actually thought Foundation was that great, but it just got worse with time. Other "franchise" works based on Asimov's ideas are also cr@p.
Don't touch the Blade Runner "sequel" with a barge pole. Blade Runner 2 tries to square the circle between the book "Do Androids..." and the film and makes a *complete* pigs ear of the entire thing!
Ok, rant over. We now return you to your regularly scheduled flame throwing...!
