because of how well dexter resurrection did

#

they aired their last epp today of season one and legit whole season was a banger

dusk hound
#

I’ve never watched Dexter but I’ve seen clips and he’s a real good actor

#

I’ve mostly seen clips between him and Doakes which are genuinely so funny

#

Every interaction they have is comedy gold LUL

lucid haven
#

you could legit if you dont care too much about backstory and things pick up at dexter resurection and get all the backstory you need from flashbacks and things and the exposition of ppl

#

its all quite well explained even in the 1st couple epps of this new season

#

since its a reboot of a reboot of a old series

#

it has a bunch of explaining all up front

Watched the first episode of The Paper, the show made by the guys who made The Office

#

Actually pretty good

#

Nothing earth shattering but it’s very much in the same vein of The Office mixed with Parks and Rec mixed with What We Do In The Shadows

#

I think really the only complaint I have with it is it really relies on making a lot of connections to The Office, especially since it’s in the same universe as it, but it really needs to focus on being its own thing

Why give it a codename lmao

There will be signs around where I live with the codename on directing people to the site

Often at the site though there will be a notice signed by the producer or executive producer so you can just look up what they're doing at the moment on imdb and work out what's being filmed

#

The ellison family make sense to be pushing for this large media merger

#

I feel like there in theory should be some regulatory push back tho

But that probs just means more money exchanges hands then the merger goes through

lone canyon
#

Yeah, I’m worried that these large mergers will result in popular culture feeling very “same-y”

lucid haven
#

Well mabey with the usa losing so much soft power latley we will get a culture shift over the next couple decades

Which would be nice

#

Cause things are getting samey as it is already

lone canyon

I mean, there’s an increase in popularity of East Asian culture in general

#

Most global culture is still American though

Feels like there might be a shift away from that tho if the usa keeps trending in the same direction it is right now

The show should’ve ended in season 5 and it would’ve been regarded as a cult classic with a downer ending and gotten a bad reunion movie that everyone ignored

If you’re talking about Bloodlines then I agree, but the 2009 one was really good

west escarp

The first one

#

I did not like it

dusk hound
#

Oh

#

I thought it was pretty good

#

Idk

west escarp
#

I liked Bloodlines better actually because her fight with Medusa was sooooooo good in the comics and it rubbed off on the movie for me

#

And then she was blind for the next few issues until they had Athena resets her to status quo after a quest

dusk hound
#

Honestly need to rewatch Bloodlines cause I remember not liking it but idk?

#

Maybe my opinion will change

west escarp
#

No it’s not very good

#

It’s just that the comic fight was super good

#

Highly recommend that arc

#

I think it’s a Morrison story? Morrison rarely misses

#

I don’t know why so many comic writers struggle with writing Wonder Woman

So few writers have actually been able to get her right

Oh no it’s Greg Rucka. Also usually good

Greg Rucka is the GOAT of Wonder Woman writers along with Perez

Gateway city is a trivia question for most comic fans

Almost all the DC heroes have their own fictional city, and giving Wonder Woman Washington DC is certainly… a choice

I really want to rewatch Young Justice after I’m done with the DCAMU but then I’m reminded of how much of a fumbled bag that show was

#

Just one more season

#

It’ll be wrapped up so good after just one more season

#

Also no you can’t see the character you liked so much last season. It’s time for new character because we have a million random cameos to cram in

dusk hound
#

Shows called Young Justice and it’s not even about the Young Justice team anymore 🥀 🥀

Katabasis I think handles some of this really well. Katabasis ||It's not really a retelling even if there are some parallels and in some ways uses some of those old myths/tales as unreliable narrators which the characters must try and use while understanding it's not exactly the truth. This is a trope I particularly enjoy.||

lone canyon
#

I dislike most Ancient Greek myth retellings

#

A lot of it feels like people changing an interesting and complex story to make things fit within a modern liberal framework

#

Whereas a lot of what makes ancient myths work is the raw cruelty of it

#

Like Medea, Antigone, Electra, etc all touch on topics relevant to modern feminists but they do it through a unique lens, not by idealizing their heroines but by making them part of the messy world they live in

#

I think this is what makes Hadestown work when most other Ancient Greek retellings fail

#

Song of Achilles fails for me because Madeline Miller makes the characters, for lack of a better word, woke

#

WHY are these Bronze Age warlords, who are here to rape, pillage and kill, so concerned with protecting women 😭

#

It’s incredibly anachronistic

#

Song of Achilles ||in a world where masculinity is defined by violent dominance over women and Achilles is so concerned with being seen as The Best of the Greeks, it makes no sense for him not to rape Briseis, whether or not he’s attracted to her||

This is a bit tangential, but I feel like this sort of extends beyond just myth retellings. I can't think of tons of examples, but I also wouldn't say I read/consume tons of this sort of media, but I feel like I've noticed a few different cases of like... very popular media having a complex story/cast, but writing them to fit into a very narrow and modern moral framework and having that weaken both the story and the morals

#

-# my mind especially goes to acotar, where book 2 tries to spin a strong story about like... ||escaping the abusive partner for the woke feminist king who everyone hates|| but where that story feels very inconsistent with book 1

#

-# or the vivzie/helluva shows, where (at least as far as I watched) it felt a bit like the morality would alternate from "its hell" to proper modern morals every few minutes

I was going to say we need more stories about accurately portrayed Ancient Greek Heroes getting transplanted into the modern world and floundering, but then I realized like 90% of them would get a chapter or two of "what is this strange place?" followed immediately by them running from the cops after they indulge in their tragic flaw

One thing looking at the kickstarter for me is that the kickstarter doesn’t seem to actually amount to much. A couple teasers. Funding for them to put together concepts for the show.

That's true, but my gut instinct is that they're likely better positioned than most, being a sequel project to a show that got seven seasons on Netflix of all platforms

#

If they can show any amount of nonzero interest for the sequel project I think they're sitting in a very good position in terms of trying to attract "real" funding

cobalt onyx
#

The fact that they got 7 seasons really makes me think they managed to get some unicorn deal where the funding was guaranteed or already paid out, and that it was basically uncancelable

(IIRC the original pitch was 7 seasons)

stoic falcon

Yeah, I remember hearing something about there being 7 seasons when the first 3 were the only ones that were out

topaz oyster
#

That may be the case but it remains a marketable feat especially if they can back it up with viewership numbers and/or proof of active Kickstarter interest

If a funding source is looking at funding either this or some unknown brand new animated project, I think the scales tip in Dragon King's favor

||really interested to see where this clash of personalities between Avon and stringer goes, especially since I can’t see both coming out of this season alive or at the very least one of them is stepping out of the game (more likely to be Stringer with all the work he’s doing with Davis and I don’t think Avon would give up his lifestyle)||

Park Chan-wook Watchlist

Perhaps not as comparatively well known as Bong Joon Ho here in the West but Park Chan-wook is a powerhouse unto his own. Park Chan-wook is like a Ozu/Mizoguchi/Kobayashi (with a bit of Ōshima and Miike thrown in there) to Bong Joon Ho's Kurosawa. Yet I have only watched two films of his (JSA and Oldboy) and he has a new film coming out in Dece...

foundation season 3 || legit i dont think the mule swap was a good idea and there should have been more of suggesting that it was her or something.
