Longer-form storytelling is doing so well these days. Yeah, I really wouldn't want to see a "monster of the week" format. It's gotta be season-long (or even longer) storylines for me.

Quote from: Nightmare Asylum on Dec 04, 2020, 02:37:28 AMYeah, I was excited for that project until I started seeing some trailers. Never did wind up watching the film. Love the ADI guys and their work but... they aren't directors. Gillis is a pretty good actor, though.
Quote from: Stitch on Dec 04, 2020, 08:45:34 AMIt's not a terrible film. It's what you expect from an effects team making a whole movie. Nothing amazing but there's far worse out there.
Quote from: HuDaFuK on Dec 02, 2020, 09:55:32 AMI hope not because that show used to piss me right off when I still bothered to watch it.For every really good episode there's at least three shit ones.
Quote from: Corporal Hicks on Dec 04, 2020, 01:30:14 PMI think Noah talked about it as a 10 hour show when he spoke earlier this year, so it would look he only envisioned a 10 episode season.

You would need a big budget for the sets though. There are rules to the design of Alien and they should be followed. That doesn't mean there's not room to grow but you have to honor the aesthetic.Y'all keep pulling for ADI and I just don't get it. Maybe they could do a better suit but who gives a shit? Design aside I'm just going on the films they've worked on. This is not aimed at their 2-D artists or sculptors.Honestly it's mostly just me who's the ADI cheerleader, our staff have disagreements about whether or not they should get another gig. But I don't place their work above any of the other practical creature FX studios that have been involved in the franchise, any of the major ones would do a nice job I'm sure.Also high production value sci-fi series have become much more accessible these days. The Unreal Engine live-action virtual sets utilized by The Mandalorian are a good example. That show has an excellent blend of practical and digital effects. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ufp8weYYDE8
