Just saw the series finale of Better Call Saul and it was top shelf. I could not have asked for a better final episode. It went places I never expected, was bitter sweet and what else can I state? Vince Gilligan and Peter Gould hit the ball so far out of the park I am in awe of them. Thank you.
You mad bro? If you want to make a point, don’t watch The Lord Of The Rings: The Rings Of Power. Big corporations are like politicians, they care only when business is threatened and so if those who don’t want to see it, abstain, that will eventually speak louder than words. Just let it happen. I for one want to see it with my own eyes first before I judge it, but I can state I don’t like the creative choices. Female dwarves have beards as seen in The Hobbit. Alas Christopher Tolkien is not here to protect his father’s legacy and I think he was not pleased with how The Hobbit films came out and they are not as good as the LOR trilogy, but might be worlds better than what we are getting here. You know in the 1990s when Star Trek: Voyager introduced Tim Russ as a black Vulcan, no one gave him grief and he did a good job considering Voyager for me was never quite as good as TNG or DS9. So what if the actors they hired actually are very good at their jobs? Are you going to give them grief? No you won’t because it is the story that is what you are passionate about. Well you know using Star Trek as an example, there were diehard fans of TOS who were reluctant to embrace TNG when it first aired in syndication in the USA, but you know by the third season the series found itself and now that is the benchmark by which Star Trek is measured. Now I don’t like the new Treks on Paramount Plus, but I recognize they are not being written for me and if they want to run it into the ground, I still have what I loved growing up. Tolkien’s books still exist and no one can bastardize them. It is like when they ask Stephen King about the amount of movies based on his work that are horrible, he replied the books are still here. So you know you can have a fit of outrage and maybe that is your deal. There is such a thing as organized opposition you know? Not that you are, but I don’t know you and you don’t know me and you know I hope if it sucks as bad as people say it will that people will just not watch. That is how you win. Not by protesting. Getting angry and engaging the actors involved. You want to make a statement simply don’t watch it. If you read this far you are a patient man. Thank you.
This is actually a comment I wrote to an angry YouTuber and it stated everything I feel at the moment about toxic fandom and corporate manipulation and I think the best way to make you voice heard is not to get angry and don’t react. Instead don’t watch it. Just let it be. Believe me if you don’t engage then it will stand or fall on it’s own and that is fair.

They grab, tear, scratch and bite into whatever they can indiscriminately at anything alive. Then if there’s enough left, the victim reanimates and does the same. Considering what zombies do to their victims while still alive, the idea of someone standing there and resigning themselves while stating “Just get it over with,” seemed shocking. This scene caught my attention in the teaser. Now that I have seen the first two episodes of AMC’s Tales of the Walking Dead, it is best to look at them as one off comic book issues where anything can happen. Are all of these considered cannon? I miss the old days when Frank Darabont was guiding the show. He brought humanity to the horror/drama that remains unparalleled. For what it is, Tales of the Walking Dead is a variety bag of different flavors of storytelling that acts as filler to tell stories set in that world one would not see anywhere else. At this point I think AMC could broadcast enough Walking Dead related content to fill up a year without repeats provided people still want to see it. Tales of the Walking Dead airs Sundays on AMC with new episodes streaming a week early on AMC+.

“Maiellaro and I are excited to finally bring book IIV of the Aqua Teen Plantasm series to the big screen that is little and inside your house.

NEW YORK – July 28, 2022 – Shudder, AMC Networks’ premium streaming service for horror, thriller and the supernatural, announced today the return of Studio71’s hit found footage anthology franchise, V/H/S, with an all-new installment, V/H/S/99. The Shudder Original Film will release in North America, the United Kingdom, Ireland, Australia and New Zealand on Thursday, October 20 and will feature renown genre filmmakers Maggie Levin (Into The Dark: My Valentine), Johannes Roberts (47 Meters Down, Resident Evil: Welcome To Raccoon City), Flying Lotus (Kuso), Tyler MacIntyre (Tragedy Girls) and Joseph & Vanessa Winter (Deadstream).
V/H/S/99 harkens back to the final punk rock analog days of VHS, while taking one giant leap forward into the hellish new millennium. In V/H/S/99, a thirsty teenager's home video leads to a series of horrifying revelations.
“V/H/S/94 set a new bar for what is already a fantastic film franchise, featuring some of the best horror anthology segments in recent memory by an incredible lineup of filmmakers,” said Craig Engler, GM of Shudder. “We knew immediately that we wanted to continue the series, and what the producers have come up with in V/H/S/99will be the biggest and best film yet in the series, and we can’t wait for Shudder members to see it.”
“The last year of the 90’s was a perfect playground for us” said producer Josh Goldbloom. “DVD’s surpassed VHS, Blair Witch took the world by storm, and Y2K fears created a sense of apocalyptic dread. Add to that 6 of the most creative genre filmmakers in the world, and we’re confident this is the biggest, baddest, and most wildly savage V/H/S yet!”
“Fans of our franchise are going to love V/H/S/99,” said executive producer Michael Schreiber. “Each new film in the series is the chance to showcase a different ensemble of talented and diverse filmmakers, and I’m extremely proud of the work that V/H/S99’s filmmakers have put in to bring their terrifying visions to life."
The franchise’s last Shudder and Studio71 collaboration, V/H/S/94, debuted to rave reviews from film critics, with The New York Times calling the film “a grisly, gory gem,” and a 90% certified fresh rating on Rotten Tomatoes. V/H/S/94 was the biggest movie premiere in Shudder history, setting a record for the most viewers during its opening weekend, and it continues to be a top performing title nearly a year later.
Producers include Goldbloom for Cinepocalypse, Brad Miska for Bloody Disgusting, David Bruckner (V/H/S, The Night House, Hellraiser), filmmaking collective Radio Silence (Chad Villella, Matt Bettinelli-Olpin
The deal was negotiated by Emily Gotto and Nicholas Lazo on behalf of Shudder and Schreiber and Federico J. Blanco on behalf of Studio71.
