‘3 Body Problem’ Renewed for Additional Episodes to Conclude the Netflix Series

The acclaimed sci-fi epic has been greenlit for more episodes and the streamer committed to finishing the series, while showrunners David Benioff and Dan Weiss have renewed their overall deal.

Netflix dropped a giant pile of cash on this and it was... fine, I guess. I'm curious if they'll scale back or double down, since it's my understanding that adapting the second book will require even more special effects, and for a show that reportedly cost 20 million per episode, the effects in the first season were not good.

I’m officially calling X-Men 97 the best project we have seen from Disney since they bought Marvel.

Yeah, I enjoyed it but was not "wowed." Just a good show, nothing to get excited about.

Nic Cage's Live-Action Spider-Man Noir Is Not the Hero Sony's Spider-Verse Needs - IGN

Nicolas Cage's Spider-Man Noir series may be a step in the right direction for Sony's floundering live-action Spider-Verse, but it can't fix what ails this cinematic universe.

I like Nic Cage, and his Spider Man Noir was great in Into The Spider-Verse, but this is going to suuuuuuuuuuck.

They really swung for the fences with that finale, and keep hitting dingers. Set up three huge plotlines for future seasons?

Great show.

 

[SixOhNine]

Ugh. Fine. You nerds have convinced me to give the show a try. On two conditions, though- do I need to watch the first show from the 90s, and do I need to read one of those excessively detailed history of the X- Men fan pages to know what's going on?

Nah. Helps if you're vaguely familiar with the Phoenix plotline but you don't need to know all the details.

 

[Gibonius]

Neat.

Nope. I watched it when it came out but barely remember any of it since I haven’t watched it since then. You are fine.

Neat.

I fear that this will be to the Dune cinematic universe as the Rings of Power series is to the LoTR films. An execrable blemish, mostly.

It's HBO so they're somewhat less likely to catastrophically screw it up.

You're crazy...

Young Galadriel is an absolute delight.

 

[smittycl]

Two good pieces on Rings of Power. I’m going to watch the first season again this summer.

 

[beargonefishing]

Ngl I really enjoyed the first season of the rings of power. It was campy, but so is Tolkien, so I didn't mind.
