Death Wish(Bruce Willis) trailer

News Credits: 22 · by **Rodimus Prime** » Fri Aug 04, 2017 3:43 am

I have been waiting for that. I hope it will be good, and not be affected too much by Hollywood liberalism and idiotic SJWs. I won't be upset if it's not a remake of the original film, but it should follow the main points. On the plus side, it stars Bruce Willis and is written by Joe Carnahan, on the bad side it's directed by that worthless hack Eli Roth.

"Working" is a bit strong for a season that's only 7 episodes long. That's like, what, 2 hours and 20 minutes of content? Most movies are around that length.

And it's also kind of...unsatisfying. Like they were meant to have more episodes for this season. The last two seasons ended with massive battles with Zarkon, with Voltron just barely making it through. This one ended with...uh...a series of flashbacks to Zarkon's start of darkness. Lore and world building, sure, but it just makes the season feel anticlimactic. Probably because there's no actual climax to it.

At least season 4 is coming in two months.

Glad I wasn't the only one.

You just start settling in, then it's done.

Season 4 better make up for it.

Aye i was gonna ask about that....if there were more eps coming or is that it?(7 eps)

seems like we're getting short changed if that's the case! seeing as the previous 2 seasons were longer

Anyone watched The Tick yet

OK Burn...what did you think of the first episode of The Orville then?

News Credits: 226 · by **Burn** » Mon Sep 11, 2017 5:39 pm

I quite enjoyed it! Gave me a few (loud) laughs.

I have no idea where it's going, but I am looking forward to see if they "rip off" any other sci-fi franchises.

I'm fairly certain I'll enjoy Orville more than Discovery.

I'm also holding out hope for a pseduo-Dalek to appear. :-P

Agreed. I was very happy with the show.

May need to check it out then. I was on the fence and spent all night watching monday night football so I missed it.

Is it like the Space Balls of TV shows then?

Episode 2 of Orville was great, one thing though...when the Cap & First Officer stepped onto that other ship & were beamed away! it proves that Transporter tech exists in the show...so it's weird why the Orville doesn't have any transporters on board for the crew to use(& I mean people! not replicators...which btw the Orville does have installed)

Yes. It was pretty good. Much better than the older one. This one actually scared me a little.
