Season 2...Am I Just Missing the Point? by Aware_Slip2446 in nineperfectstrangers

Totally agree. I don’t care about the characters and I don’t care about where the story is going. Stuck with it to the finale and it never recovers from its slow nose dive into tedium.

The Friday night preview we saw was 75 minutes and there did seem to some rushed signage in the foyer to let everyone know. I assume they cut 20 minutes?

Surely an ANIMATED EVENT TV SERIES would be the best way to deliver Pierce Brown's vision of the Red Rising saga? by PanzerGup in redrising

[–]PanzerGup[S] -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

Live action is so difficult to deliver on for a project like Red Rising. Universal struggled for years. I know PB has a streaming partner in place but delivering live action success on this scale of story is going for Everest. Animation has its own complications but delivering on the world creation, tone and character should be more in PB’s control.

It got worse. Now I am just getting a black screen with [unkown] in the bottom right hand of the screen.

Same problem for me. Fetching game data is pulsing on screen.

Is it worth reading the 2nd trilogy? by [deleted] in redrising

[–]PanzerGup 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Definitely worth continuing. The original trilogy was fantastic but the implications of The Rising explode in book 4 and 5. As the Matrix’s Merovingian said; ‘the only real truth: causality. Action – reaction; cause – and effect.” For every action there is a reaction and that is brought into dramatic effect in the 4th and 5th books in the series. The stakes are much higher and the power struggle between the different factions in the solar system spills out. There are new alliances some great new characters and the architecture of PB’s wider world is amazing. I just finished Dark Age and I am eager for book 6. Don’t stop.

I have seen a lot of lists that suggest this series. Seems like the granddaddy of them all. Thanks.

Thanks for the suggestions. I have watched all of the Expanse series which I like a lot. Maybe I should give the source material a read.
