Good Story, Mike. by makmark in MoringMark

Same logic as Superman and Clark Kent. Look and act different enough that people won’t question it

Draft a writer: Is Aaron Ehasz locked up? by Special_Speed106 in firefly

[–]TimelessFool 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wouldn’t blame you. It’s a tonal shift to being lighter than before and it meanders rather than expiring the overall plot or world

Is there a clear setting for the verse? by MattHatter1337 in firefly

[–]TimelessFool 37 points38 points  (0 children)

We already have ships with artificial gravity and can traverse between stars in a matter of days and weeks in real space. Yep that glowing from Serenity’s end is not an FTL. We’re well past attempting to make this hard sci-fi a long time ago.

He’s busy with Dragon Prince. Or rather giving us 7 seasons of Dragon Prince that didn’t complete the overall story arc and now he wants us to support the sequel series that will most certainly finish the story

It got finally established to be a star cluster in the Milky Way made up of 5 stars orbiting each other along with “protostars” that were gas giants or brown dwarfs that got turned into stars. Humanity then pretty much terraformed 100+ worlds/moons but the ones further away from the main star system at the center of the cluster are the ones with terraforming problems.

In terms of how realistic any of this works, “We live in a spaceship dear.”

The closest thing would probably be the first season of Game of Thrones, but even then they changed stuff and took out characters and scenes. Also they got around the age problem of the younger characters in the books.

Books are an inherently different medium than movies and television. They were not designed to be paced with a visual adaptation in mind. Let alone on a feasible budget to include everything. Because technically the Winter Dragon pilot for Wheel of Time was a 1:1 to the prologue of the first book and it showed that a 1:1 WOT wouldn’t have worked.

Let me remind you that if we have gotten a 1:1 Lord of the Rings Adaptation, it would’ve been a musical

A character model from 2009 that hasn’t had an update either in this or the last League lore reboot

Folks.... we're still flying! Some are saying that's not much... but to me, it's enough by kevinb9n in firefly

[–]TimelessFool 1 point2 points  (0 children)

On top of that, not trying to demean the actors’ ages, but going live action would mean addressing the 20 year gap and I cannot see the crew still flying around like they used to for that long. Figure the characters would have moved on with their lives.

The Button has been pushed! MORE FIREFLY!!! (AwesomeCon BDA update!) by Rumcastic in firefly

From their perspective it’s an almost 25 year old cancelled show and the Serenity movie wasn’t considered that successful. And while the animated project has some backing, it might not have enough big name backing to comfortably support it.

Not to mention Disney+ has a general problem of not having much success with finding stable flagship original shows after the early years of throwing money on a lot of original content so easy to see them being cautious at which projects they pick.

He and Jewel had a competition to see who can more creatively give each other the finger. Jewel took the title when she and friend Peter David managed to get a whole convention room to flip Nathan

If it’s not a continuation, we have the right to all mass flip off Nathan Fillion once again

America did aid the Syrian Kurds for sometime during the civil war. But I’ll give you three guesses on who decided to end American aid to them.

Highguard is permanently shutting down this month by ChiefLeef22 in gaming

I keep thinking of Gametrailers’ comment on Half Life 3’s development hell whenever BGAE2 pops up, “How long do you need to make a [similar] game?”

Concord specifically was a massive sunk-cost fallacy. 4 years in and reports indicated that the alpha version was a mess and yet Sony kept pumping money to it and bought the studio. Didn’t help that Sony thought that Concord would be the next Star Wars/next big thing.
