Well I thought the Dredd TV series was dead, but turns out not.

Still, if they have not even started to cast people yet, it's gonna be awhile until we see it on screen. By the looks of it there are a few people from the Karl Urban movie behind the series, colour me intrested if that is the case.

@JohnnyShoulder Sweet!

I finished Swamp Thing. Completely baffled at the decision to cancel it. Easily one of the best realised comic TV properties out there. Absolutely great show with good performances, scripting and pacing throughout. Bloody shame it's no more.

Conversely, Batwoman!
I wasn't going to watch any more after the dismal pilot, but the online reviews of the second and third episodes peaked a morbid curiosity.
I implore everyone on the thread to go out and find some way of watching this show! I've no idea how the episodes are even making it out of the door. It has just taken everything wrong with the pilot and turned it up to 11 for the following two episodes.

This show boasts terrible dialogue, terrible acting, poor production design, one of the worst Batsuit designs on screen (nothing will beat Gotham), janky editing, poor pacing, wildly shifting character portrayals, lacks narrative cohesion and is generally - genuinely one of the worst genre shows I've had the pleasure of watching.

Seriously. Find it, grab a couple of beers and laugh/cringe your way through. I think I'll stick around to watch the rest!

@RogerRoger You have my apologies! ;-p

I think Batwoman is actually too s*** for anyone with an even passing amount of intelligence or interest in well made television to genuinely like.

I can see the young woke-folk being in to it (or at least, saying they are) and perhaps even giving it a free pass; but the thing is so badly put together I find myself questioning whether the showrunners/producers are actually the people who have been credited.

@KALofKRYPTON That's good to know about Swamp Thing. I have no problem in watching one season of something as long as it is setup that way. It will be kinda refreshing to watch one self contained thing, rather than multiple seasons. Without spoiling things, does it end in the right manner for a one off season, or do they leave the carrot dangling?

Is it just me or does the actor who plays Jason Todd in Titans looks like Ruby Rose?

@JohnnyShoulder It wasn't intended as a single season. I think they actually had the episode count cut too.
It doesn't wrap up so much as it sets up unfortunately. Still worth watching though.

@WanderingBullet 😂😂😂 Yes. Yes he does.

@RogerRoger Archer 1999 (S10) was alright as recent Archer goes. I only bothered with the first episode of Danger Island (S9) and thought it would be as bad as S8 so didn't bother.

They kind of need to give the programme up now really.

@LN78 It's as if they want people to steal it... Seriously - it's 2019, just launch your service/game/book/whatever at the same time.

No point generating so much global hype then only launching in NA with a 4 month wait for anywhere else.

@LN78 @RogerRoger
I wouldn't have bought Disney+ anyway - so it's not even a lost sale

@KALofKRYPTON @LN78 @RogerRoger I have no problem in waiting for D+ to reach these shores. I have no intention in watching any of the shows illegally either. This place is about the only one I go to for news, so have no issues in avoiding spoilers. I've had to tell Google I'm not interested in the stuff I am interested in, so that spoilery articles stopped appearing in my feed.

Hope you guys have have those spoiler tags at the ready!

Just been discussing The Mandalorian with my brother and the whole not coming to UK for months. I have noticed the Disney + app will available at launch for PS4 in US, and found an old article on Push Square about how to set up a US Playstation account. I'm wondering if anyone thinks this could be a way of getting it at launch?

@RogerRoger Yeah I'm probably clutching at straws. It's funny that the lucky Dutch get it at launch(apparently because of their awesome infrastructure) but the rest of Europe has to wait. I wonder if they will do blu-ray release for it at some point?

@RogerRoger but as far as the disney app goes, its a little rough right now. Video freezing while audio continues happened to me several times. I had to restart app a few times before it worked right. I have the same problem with espn app(disney owns espn if u didnt know). I hope they get this worked out soon, i read alot of articles about people having issues with the app.

@RogerRoger At least should be able to binge watch the new shows on Disney+, and hopefully they would have ironed out most of the kinks by then.

I wanna watch The Mandalorian but I don't even know when Disney+ will be available in my country. Another one I wanna watch is the Obi wan Kenobi series.

@WanderingBullet Which country do you live in? I always assumed you were in the UK?

Apparently Disney+ in the Netherlands is because they have great internet and being a small compact country, it made a good test area for Disney.
