What I'd really personally like to see is space opera with better storytelling. But the impression I've got is that the sorts of films that do best as indies are ones where the props are cheap. So in other words, mostly contemporary or maybe historical settings. There are a handful of exceptions I'm aware of, but only a handful.

Am I wrong about this? Anything I'm missing?



Seriously watch Andor. Best sci fi show I’ve seen in years, SW or not.


Does one need to be up to date on the recent Star Wars movies?


No, in fact nothing in particular relates it to any other SW content.

It’s just a sci fi show set in that universe, that’s the way I see it. Takes the universe seriously, sets down rules for how it could work and it operates within that space.

But it’s better written, acted and art directed than most TV I’ve ever seen.

Id rank it as high or higher than Chernobyl. I’d say it’s must see TV.


I’m enjoying it! Thanks for the recommendation!


The Expanse


Unfortunately this one seems polarizing. I loved it from the first scene, but there seem to be more than a few people who find it slow and boring to start, and don't come around to it.


To be fair, it is a little slow and boring to start :) I still liked it, but it’s not representative of where the show goes later on
