‘The Dark Tower’: First Look at Idris Elba’s Gunslinger Revealed

 

[slighted]

I guess FOX is bringing back old shows that already have fanbases because they need ratings?

Seems like the new wave that's not working for these networks with not a lot of examples. They bringing back 24 too.

The truth is fans just want well written, entertaining, quality shows.

24 makes sense tho. As a concept, it can keep going. Prison Break? not really

Bruh you can break out of prisons forever

Only difference is PB is sticking with their same cast while 24 has finally moved on to a new cast and lead from Jack when that last special in London I guess didn't do huge #s and Keifer said he was done.

You right, if they was to switch things up I'd watch Prison Break but they can't do that for too long. If done properly, 24 could go on for years like a 10 year run.

3 seasons of PB was enough for me.

Captain America: Civil War - 6.8/8

About to start watching episode 1 from the first season of Vikings.

Body. Is. Ready.

Hope you love the show as much as I did. Very easy to get hooked.

Post your feedback as you watch. Curious to see which character(s) you gravitate to.

Received a notification regarding your post half way through the first episode & was like, "Ok, Rollo seems like he's gonna be my dude "

Then I saw he was nothing more than a two-bit, dirty mackin' som *****

 

[Master Zik]

Rollo aint who you think he is.

 

[...So]

It's basically this + making movies into shows. I think Fox picked up an Exorcist and a Lethal Weapon show (and someone else picked up a Training Day one).

My opinion is out on movies turned in to TV shows. It's nothing new. Sometimes it works, sometimes it epically fails.

I am not watching that Rush Hour trash after giving an ep a try. To me you do a TV version you better have a funny black guy and a Chinese dude with that fighter swag.

They're lacking both.

I'm prepared to to see who they get to play Zel's role. CBS has The Good Wife series finale and cancels Person of Interest and starts tripping on the hr long shows they're giving a shot.

My whole thing is they're are so many middle of the road movies they can make in to great shows if they just gave a better effort and got the right show runner and writing team. So many of these network shows give off this feel like they do the bare minimum in trying when they make these shows and if it's high ratings let's keep it at this low effort and if no results just cancel and try some other crap

 

[senorroboto2k5]

Bill Paxton is playing the Denzel role. I guess they flipped the races.

For the movies-turned-shows, seems like they're on a more uninspired track than usual. Take some random movie, turn it into another genetic week-by-week CSI.

I thought Person of Interest and The Grinder were two high-quality shows for network TV and they're getting replaced with this

NBC has a show from the Parks & Rec creator starring Kristen Bell that looks promising though

 

[lawdog1]

Speaking of all these classic comedies with sequels, apparently Super Troopers 2 comes out next year. I'm getting hyped.

Yep. I contributed to the crowd funding campaign, so I get production updates. They're working on it, but shooting is going very slowly. They take a lot of breaks. I think they were originally hoping for a 2016 release. I hope they really do get it done in 2017.

Speaking of Lethal Weapon

^ Damon Wayans is cool, but these movie-to-TV rehashes are ehh.

This looks a bit better than the Rush Hour show though.

 

[Master Zik]

I like Paxton but eh.

Looks like it'll be a funny Murtaugh in LW.

 

[Bend_The_Knee]

True Story any good?

 

[Master Zik]

True Story any good?

The join with Jonah and Franco? It's okay.

It gets disturbing in a good way in the middle and towards the end and then really ****** up. I'd say give it a watch once.

New ep of 'The Night Manager' tonight.
Forgot all about that

 

[stuntman mike]

5&6 leaked early. watched em the other day. wrapped up nicely.

 

[Master Zik]

The entire series aired like a month or 2 ago in England.

I've been sitting on all 6 eps until somebody in here reminded me of it. Think it was Noskey? JPZ?

5&6 leaked early. watched em the other day. wrapped up nicely.

That "firework show" in ep 5 where they showcased their weaponry

Scene was epic

 

[a-friend]

The Night Manager was insanely good. Great ending. Great characters. Great casting. Great story.
Suspenseful, intriguing, passionate, pretty, melodic. A well told tale from all angles.

IMDB rankings were spot on. What a new way to tell a story that been told time and time again.
