It does sadden me that EVERY loving TRAILER for Chucky is one of those 90's/00's era trailers where it completely spoils the entire story. However, if some dumb spoilery trailers are the price we have to pay for Nick Antosca and Don Mancini teaming up, then I'm psyched. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7xjAaO5NGy0

I saw the first teaser trailer but I've held off on anything else. Knowing the people involved is enough to get me in. What a long strange trip Chucky has had.

Yeah, Chucky already has me so I just haven't watched trailers. All I need to know is the start date.

Apple cancelled the Joseph Gordon Levitt show Mr. Corman. I think it's the first show Apple has kiboshed.

Escobarbarian posted:I really liked Many Saints, so I gotta recommend that. Just stay up all night watching Seinfeld afterwards Watched some of this last night plan on watching the rest today. If you're interested in Sopranos without the dark humor this might be up your alley. Glad they're at least showcasing more black folks in motherfucking Newark, but the riot stuff is still def told from a scared white angle.

Evil is so great at setting up a creepy atmosphere, I just wish that it didn’t always end up with the supernatural event being swamp gas or a leaky pipe.

Because between demon goat curry and the sleep demon attack this week we've very much crossed over the line. Sheryl's plot might not be magic, but it's certainly happening. I kind of love that she has this whole plot arc unfolding whenever she's not on-screen, so whenever we check in with her it's become progressively more bonkers. She'll be a great villain.

Open Source Idiom posted:Where you up to? I watched the latest episode, and you have a good point. The demon goat thing is definitely the most supernatural thing on the show, but because everything else has been debunked I guess I have never been completely sure whether the demon was "real". The sleep demon also seems to have more going for it than just being a nightmare.

Three episodes into Foundation and it just feels so cold and sterile. A bunch of characters even do the stilted dialogue common to cheap 90s scifi. The show looks super expensive even more than Star Trek Discovery. But I"m about to quit another Jared Harris show. He did another show called The Beast Must Die this year and it stunk.

JazzFlight posted:Huh, I’ve had the exact opposite reaction. I think it’s some of the most stunning sci-fi I’ve seen in a long time. I haven't watched it yet but most of my irl friends who arent scifi nerds love it. My Trek loving mom is way into it as well.

The scifi ideas and visual are all cool but I feel the characters are all just blah. I've seen 3 hours now and can't remember the name of the main character or what her deal is except she likes math a lot.

Foundation has the same problem for me that Evil does. Every time something really interesting happens, the episode just ends. It doesn't really feel like a cliffhanger like other shows do. It's just a thing happens, the credits roll and I think "wait, what? That's it?" It's like the end of that venture bros season where they didn't realize that doing a special ate two of their episodes so they just ran out of time and the season ends.

This is exactly how I feel about the newest season of Titans as well. I think this is partly why I loved The Kingdom so much, literally every episode ended in a satisfying way.

Foundation is so loving dry and that’ll appeal to a certain set of sci-fi fan but I’m definitely struggling with it. I did like the stuff with Empire in the third episode, but then the Terminus stuff was sooooo dull. In other news…. https://twitter.com/sepinwall/status/1444876179203244032?s=21 ![]()

I started Squid Games earlier this week and finally finished tonight. It's wild to me that a Korean show is so popular in the US. I'd give it a solid B, likely worth 9 hours of your time.

Why is it called squid game. Keep in mind I'm never going to watch it, my buddy vouched for it which means it's absolute trash.

One of my very good friends who shares many TV tastes with me unfortunately cannot bring himself to enjoy Succession for essentially the same reasons Sepinwall couldn't. Not only that, but he is a die hard Sepinwall enthusiast, watching anything that Alan watches. I'm excited to see if this changes his mind.

Possibly they were referring to the mention of Jared Harris not being around? I hope your friend does start watching Succession also

I thought the first two episodes of Foundation were good but wasn't super into the third episode. Not sure of the decision to just kind of skip the fallout of the end of episode 2.

Watched the first three episodes of the American Crime Story: Impeachment. Strong case for Linda Tripp as TV villain of the year. Also, Cobie Smulders completely disappears into her Ann Coulter portrayal. Clive Owen as Clinton... not so much. I'm not as familiar with Paula Jones but I think Annaleigh Ashford is doing a great job in the role, too.

It’s funny how the ACS Impeachment discussion went from “lol look at all those prosthetics Sarah Paulson is wearing” to “holy poo poo Sarah Paulson is so loving good” super quickly
