Marvel Studios TV Shows and Animation on Disney+
azrael replied to sh9000's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
I think, given the background of the characters, the audience knows Wanda is in a false reality. My guess is since the previews didn't reveal much, the reality she's in is part of the surprise. Should they string people for too long? Probably not even if it's fun to do a parody of each decades' sitcoms.- 1486 replies

So...any news on the HG/Macross situation?
azrael replied to isamu's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
No developments = no news = lock. -
Nostalgia is a hell of a drug. Or it's the nostalgia googles. You can see the ratings start dipping from the end of Smith, through Capaldi and straight into Ms. Whittaker's run. Take out the outliers and it started back in Tenet's run. TV shows just don't have that same stamina they use to.

[R.I.P] Tanya Roberts - CONFIRMED DEAD
azrael replied to Old_Nash's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
Dead. Not dead. Now dead. https://variety.com/2021/film/news/tanya-roberts-james-bond-that-70s-show-dead-1234878064/ -
Unfortunately, it takes a series to get to know these regenerations and for the writers to figure out the characters they have. When we get to a 2nd series with these characters, the audience and writers finally get comfortable with the characters and story. Ratings probably had a role to play. Who knows...

[R.I.P] Tanya Roberts - CONFIRMED DEAD
azrael replied to Old_Nash's topic in Anime or Science Fiction

Star Wars Rogue Squadron, in theaters TBA
azrael replied to no3Ljm's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
Hence one of the reasons why I have no real hopes for this flick. As for the whole streaming vs. theater issue, until the situation calms down enough for theaters to pack it in like the can of sardines it was (which means late 2021/likely 2022), good luck with theater releases. Cuz we'll be streaming more for most of 2021 at this rate. Back to our regularly scheduled whining thread.- 115 replies

Star Wars Rogue Squadron, in theaters TBA
azrael replied to no3Ljm's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
Cut the chatter kids. Do I have any hopes for this movie? No. Is it because of Patty Jenkins? No. And while I haven't watched WW84 yet, directors have good and bad movies. I just feel the premise for this movie has been done to death. Old guy (Wedge) culls the herd of pilots to have his cream-of-the-crop group of hotshots. Top Gun, the comedy version Hot Shots!, that Apache helicopter movie, S.W.A.T., countless other movies that also follow this premise. I don't care what era it's set in, I don't find the premise enticing enough. It's that premise of movie, but in the Star Wars-universe.- 115 replies

The Mandalorian - Star Wars webseries from Jon Favreau
azrael replied to SMS007's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
That was a gawd awful scene. They were basically doing the equivalent of banging sticks or baseball bats at each other. Cinematic swordplay is, unfortunately, a lost art in western cinema. While this episode's hallway scene was good, it was wasn't as good as Rogue One's hallway hack&slash scene. That's cuz his mouth wasn't moving right. Just like Tarkin in Rogue One, there was something wrong to trip your fake person detector. The deep fake posted above does a better job on the face but the mouth....still off.- 1438 replies

The Mandalorian - Star Wars webseries from Jon Favreau
azrael replied to SMS007's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
I will agree in principal. I think the season does get bogged down by the fan service, namely from the legacy characters who are now or will be getting spinoffs; the "backdoor pilots". This show, in its measly 2 seasons, still puts the entire even-garbage-looks-better-sequel trilogy to shame and on less money overall. I would like to see a shift away from the "I help you, you help me"-stories though. That's getting way to repetitive. Filler episodes were annoying, especially at the start of the season. Good episode, good season finale, OK season. Season 3 needs to up the game now.- 1438 replies

This is part of DC's Future State story line going across all titles next year. Luke Fox would have been a better choice since that character is established, unless they wanted to keep him as Batwing.

Likely because he will be featured prominently in the show. Maybe Vader will be helmet-less while "conversing" with Obi-Wan through the Force. I think we're getting Head-Anakin but there's some concept drawings showing the former friends fighting again. Wonder if we'll get a live-action Satine...

how to post in for sale/trade section?
azrael replied to ykkykk2009's topic in MW Site News & Member Feedback
We encourage new users to look at and post in sections other than the For Sale sections. You may find some other topics here are worth your time. If you feel this is unfair, perhaps eBay is a better platform for your sales. -

The Mandalorian - Star Wars webseries from Jon Favreau
azrael replied to SMS007's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
This was a good action episode. Ties up a B-story from earlier in the season. Yes, a random California location to serve as backdrop of this episode, but hey, filming on location is expensive and they have to conserve funds for the finale. So might as well use a fairly un-original locale.- 1438 replies
