I'll watch it, I've been craving some more diverse stories and visuals in my scifi media.

I'm kinda tired of the Mad Max and Blad Runner aesthetics, right now.

Looks awesome.
Is this being made by HBO or just being streamed on that service? Just trying to figure out where it'll end up internationally, but if a proper HBO show then it'll end up at those usual partners.

So how does this whole MAX/GO thing work outside of the US?

Is the MAX stuff on GO in territories where MAX isn't available? Or will I have to get this, um, through other channels in Europe?

Is this based on anything? Like a novel or something? Seems like a weird name after watching the trailer. I mean, I get it, just not the title I would expect for a show like this.

Do hope people arent getting tired of these dystopian shows lol. Seems like after the Handmaid's Tale, this genre is starting to take over like it did with YA novels and then their film adaptations.

Looks awesome imo. Really like this Ridley Scott lol. Just hope he is able to do a better job after Prometheus and whatever that last Alien movie was.

I came in expecting a movie trailer, but watching it, I was thinking this feels like a series, and then it turned out it was. Looks...okay in places, but I'm not interested in watching another show.

Could be interesting.

What's definitely exciting is that Ben Frost is scoring the show.

I'm expecting an amazing batshit crazy pilot and for it to shit the bed by episode two. But we will see, maybe it will turn out decent.

I don't trust anything Ridley Scott makes (unless he's just producing?) however whenever a trailer has to say "from the mind of" or "creator of" "makers of" "producers of" usually has to use better works to use as a crutch to get other's interest. So this holds no interest for me.

Ehhhh

Not really a fan of the color grading at all and I have a feeling the themes are gonna be as subtle as a brick to the head

Also Scott is more of a warning than something to be excited about nowadays imo

The writer was also behind Prisoners though and I enjoyed that a lot so who knows

Looks really good, please be good. Ridley Scott knows how to direct a world-class looking production, that's for sure. He is doing the pilot.

Was this known to be in development?

It's a Ridley Scott HBO series so yes, I will subscribe again.

Just the pilot, or is that all that's known? (Looks like he's doing the first two episodes based on IMDB, but that might be a double-feature)

Edit: I checked Scott's IMDB and he is producing a Blade Runner show called Black Lotus.. wtf

wow, that was a great trailer. The first one sold me on the show, but this one really helped understand what im getting into story wise.

I wonder if they are planning this as a one-off limited series type thing, or if they are wanting it to be a series. Whatever the case is, I hope they have planned accordingly lol.

Looks like there will be 10 episodes.

Is this going to be an actual HBO series (shown on HBO cable subscriptions) or is it simply exclusive to HBO Max streaming? I haven't seen any previews or whatnot on HBO so I'm assuming it's the latter.

I want this! I was expecting either a second trailer with a Bjork song attached to it, or Wolves from Kanye's The Life of Pablo.

So many good shows on HBO Max.
