Well, this is certainly not something I expected to see today. Not sure how I feel about it. Amazon has a great history of ruining things they touch.
Didn't they do History of the World Part 2? That was a trainwreck.
that was hulu.
Curious what you consider they’ve ruined? I’ve liked a lot of the stuff they’ve put out compared to other services.
And MGM is no slouch.
Lord of The Rings
That is a very fair answer, if not them someone else unfortunately though. It was doomed to get more content eventually.
The Expanse
While I wouldn't say they've "ruined it" it felt like a significant drop in quality the moment Amazon took over.
Except Alcon was still making it and the budget didn't change. Season 6 got cut down to 6 episodes due to Amazon, though.
That and the whole there being three other books worth of material that the series just noped the fuck out of because amazon didn't want to keep making the series. They did the same thing with The Wheel of Time.
There's a 30 year gap in between the last episode and when the story starts again. That's a perfect place to end the show, and then pick it back up down the road.
Uh one of the main actors got in shit for sexual abuse, that ended any chance of having future episodes.
Amazon wouldn’t have left that cash cow behind, but there wasn’t going forward with that actor, or even rewriting them.
You can see how they went back and changed the end of the season already filmed scenes to rewrite the cancelation story in.
There was also a massive time shift coming up, it just wouldn’t work.
Actor contracts etc the longer a show goes on($$), and the time lapse between book 6 and 7. Still would be more than amazing to see on screen. And if one has seen the show and not read the books I cannot recommend them highly enough.
well that's not something they can really do with a single movie like Spaceballs 2.
Masbe that was the core of the issue.
