James Clavell's Shogun on FX, premieres on Feb 27, 2024
Duke Togo replied to peter's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
To the best of my recollection, Clavell doesn't depict warfare in any of his novels. That's simply not what they're about. -

As someone who has read the book twice and has seen the original miniseries probably 10 times over the past 30 years, I'm glad it ended the way it did. They did a really excellent job with the new miniseries, with my only quibble being that Blackthorne doesn't come across as inquisitive (or perhaps intelligent) as the character should be. But, maybe I'm wrong on this and I just need to do a rewatch. -
This show is a home run. Critically acclaimed and popular with viewers. It was a hit with me and some of my friends who have never played the games. Male and female. I look forward to season 2.

I'm debating going to see this, or waiting for it to hit streaming. I'll watch it at some point, just a question of where.

The Acolyte - Disney Plus Star Wars Series
Duke Togo replied to jvmacross's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
It was only divisive because it was released unfinished and buggy with a lot of content cut. Obsidian was forced to rush it out the door by LucasArts and Microsoft. Thankfully, the cut content remained on the disc, and years later a fan project was able to fix many of the bugs and restore much of what was incomplete. The story itself is well-loved by the fans. -
They're not joking about that being a teaser. Barely a hint of things.

Oh, this is good news: apparently, The Acolyte was mostly shot "on location" and not in the Volume. They also are doing a lot of practical effects and puppet work.
