yeah same.. i saw some screenshots, im not mad at it.. just not what i was expecting... might be better tbh, cos there is a lot of trippy stuff in b5 that might be better animated.. i doubt they have the skillz to make a decent live action these days anyway

lol not seen this trailer, omg it's sliders xD

started watching through sliders recently, it's shocking how many sci-fis have ripped off episodes of sliders, it's really well written... just started season 3 and it's gone way higher budget, got picked up by paramount or something.. i dunno i liked the simpler/more creative style, but it's still alright.. jst much crazier storylines

there's a lot of junk coming out these days, it's hard to find good stuff

Kinda funny that I missed this a few days after downloading Sliders, lol

Got strange after a while, unwatchable by the end mostly but I kept going. Most of the stuff that got rid of characters was from behind the scenes drama (screw Peckinpah) and Rembrandt is all that's left of the original cast by the end.

i started slowing down around season 3 tbh.. it massively does up in budget and you can really tell.. but im not sure it's a good thing :S

i guess so, just a lot more effects and less good writing. i'll get back to it..

Silo was good, weird end to the season tho.

other than that not a lot new out, kong anime on netflix.. new witcher but again bored on about ep 5, too much political crap.

oh i watched john wick 4 as well.. not great tbh, they all getting old old lol, much slower action scenes than the earlier films.

Oddly it's whole run was on the Sci-fi channel when it was still called that. Dunno how they went so downhill. They were making money and original programs and now it's the SyFy channel and they make shit like Mansquito. Used to watch my Saturday morning anime there.

SyFy has done some good shows, like Stargate is a SyFy show i think
there's quite a few

sliders.. i dunno, i think i just dont like the change in showrunner where it's gone all big budget, doesn't fit it so much

Guardians of the Galaxy Volume 3's not bad

it's on that cinehub.wtf

what do we think of this?



i actually think it looks alright

he's playin it a bit mr.rogers, i dunno, maybe.. younger version hmm
depends if they follow more the modern version or the classic.

problem is the modern version is probably closer to the actual book.
(note: that does not make it better)
