Amazon is picking up the rights to a lot of fantasy and sci-fi ventures lately. Not sure how much of it will pan out. I'm more interested in the sci-fi ventures, which are more innovative. Agreed on LoTR -- this has been done. My favorite version is still the animated one by Ralph Baski done in the 1970s and 80s.
Haven't seen all of S2 the Expanse yet...it's sitting on the DVR. Nor have I seen Stranger Things 2 (saving it for Thanksgiving. The Expanse, I think I may be saving for post-Christmas.)
Curious what you thought of Bladerunner 2049. Can you give me a non-spoilery response? ie. Yes, it was great, go see it. No, don't bother. Or ...you can wait until it pops up on netflix or on-demand? (I own the director's cut of the original BladeRunner on DVD. It's my favorite Sci-Fi movie, but I'm hesistant to see the sequel. Mainly because the best thing about the first movie was well Rutger Hauer. That and the sequel is almost 3 hours long...)
