    Yep. It's kinda sad really considering how much budget they sank into costume and set design. Just funneling a little of that into a few script rewrites probably could have made it loads better.

    Eh wasn't her being an alien and not understanding human culture a big part of her character?

    Aye. That is fairly atrocious. Straight, long, and orange/red would have been a much better choice, especially considering how pretty the actress looks with straight hair.

    Not sure if anybody here is/was interested in the new Netwflix show "Lost in space" but if you are I have to warn you - if you really want to enjoy this movie forget pretty much everything about science (and to some extent simple logic/problem solving) you ever learned!

    I haven't finished it yet and some parts of it can be fun but by god I am happy I watched this after I went out with my friends because I am not sure if I would be nearly this forgiveable if I wasn't slightly drunk...

    That bad huh? I have heard people say it's bad. Haven't started it yet I'm pretty drunk right now though it might be worth it.

    The hair is 1000000 times worse than the outfit and is my main complaint. Looks like DIY coloring on a 5 dollar perm. The same can be said for the shots of Raven and Beast Boy actually.

    Post production effects are going to need to be liberally applied otherwise they're in for a pretty hefty deluge of fan backlash.

    It is a pretty bad picture. With any hope that's all it is. Of predictably she got a load of racist shit along with fans being worried that the costume looks cheap. Then again people could save it till they see actual promo pictures.

    The promo photos intended for release are solid. At least CW quality.

    (Minor Nitpic: I hate how they've made the Bo Staff a Dick Grayson thing since the animated cartoon. The Bo Staff belongs to Tim Daggummit. Hopefully this will show his evolution into Nightwing and we get the Escrima sticks.)

    Legion is back and it's still fucking great. David continues to be one of my all-time favorite unreliable narrators, and the trippy surrealism has been dialed up to 11.

    It's a shame the second season is getting mediocre Nielson ratings, which means there probably won't be a third.

    Is Lost in Space any good?

    I'm all down for a more lighthearted SciFi show. But the little kids face just screams "I'm going to ruin every scene I'm in with a distinct lack of talent and some dollar store moralizing."

    Lost in Space production values are really nice. The script is stupid and some of the actors seem misplaced. But then that's pretty much in line with the theme of Lost in Space which has always been a stupid idea.

    You get exactly what the name implies imho.

    Personally I wish they wouldn't waste their resources on stupid concepts though.

    Netflix really seems to spend a *lot* of money on half planned or stupid SF concepts lately with Annihilation, Cloverfield Paradox, The Titan and this show. At least the show seems to have a plot structure:)

    The Titan had me sold until right near the end when he turned into that proto human from alien.

    The Titan was.. okay? I don't know, I felt like if they had just spent more time on the characters before they entered the program, I would've cared more.

    We're brought into the story when they've already decided to make this life-altering decision and they reference how difficult a decision it was, but we've seen none of that. As much as I enjoy the science fiction speculation about genetics and such, I feel like it got bogged down in that area.

    Don't know if its been mentioned here, but The Rain was a decent show. If a little bit infuriating as is usual with survival scenarios. I'd rec it to anyone. I liked it.
