Been waiting to see what this would look like for years...and the first person we see in the trailer is David Sodding Goyer. So it's hard to care now.

 

[Starship Coyote]

Might watch. IDK.

 

[Cassie]

Oh, I will definitely watch it long enough to see if it's any good.

 

[CaptainWacky]

I bet it kept Jared Harris away from The Expanse for yet another season...

 

[Fuddlemiff]

Fingers crossed they don’t fuck it up. Rendezvous with Rama next!

 

[CaptainWacky]

Wasn't there supposed to be a Rama movie ten years ago...

EDIT: Been in development Hell for nearly 20 years lol https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rendezvous_with_Rama#Film

 

[CaptainWacky]

It looks pretty at least.

I don't remember clone babies in the books.

Finally people will know what I mean when I say "Nice one, Hari Seldon!" to someone who has predicted something especially obvious.

 

[CaptainWacky]

Bazinga lol.

 

[FBI parte due]

How dare you. I will end you.

 

[CaptainWacky]

It's a good looking trailer.

 

[Cassie]

Oh I hope the show is as epic as the trailer!

 

[Saleel Majeed]

I hope they can do justice to the books.
It looks very epic. I dont have a subscription to apple at the moment. I should see what other shows on there to justify paying extra.

 

[jack]

I have a lot of scrips, like Netflix, Disney+ and Prime, but I keep Apple crap out of my house, thank you very much.

 

[CaptainWacky]

Apple TV has quite a few good shows.

 

[Cassie]

I don't subscribe to any of them, and yet I still watch them all. LIKE MAGIC.

 

[CaptainWacky]

I've been signed in to my brother in law's Apple TV for a year and they haven't arrested me.

 

[CaptainWacky]

First two episodes are out tomorrow.

 

[Cassie]

Yay, something to watch this weekend.

 

[CaptainWacky]

I watched the first episode. I'm not going to judge it too harshly yet. Obviously a lot of money has been spent on it and there was some nice looking sci fi stuff. Jared Harris is always compelling doing anything and the girl playing Gaal seems like a good find. Alexander Siddig and, weirdly, Reece Shearsmith show up too. But like...it was so dry and didn't really give us much of a reason to care about anything? I don't think it did a great job getting acrossing how Seldon's science actually works, or the scale of the Empire. Don't know. I'll keep watching because I have no life.
