Amazon producing three SF series for 2018

Postby Zen » Fri Sep 29, 2017 4:53 pm

reports that Amazon has three fairly high profile science fiction series coming out next year: Lazarus, Ringworld, and Snow Crash.

Some people might be more excited about Ringworld, or the comic fans about Lazarus... but Snow Crash... as a 1 hour Science Fiction drama series... That could be... either awesome or a complete train wreck. But, PLEASE, don't whitewash it!

Super into it, interesting how much BRAND matters but it's still not common knowledge that SYFY has MOSTLY Moved away from asylum lvl schlock and has been producing some quality programs, that one show that I'm to lazy to google about the ship that was on a 100 year journey but they were actually just stuck on earth, great stuff.

But yea, super happy that AMAZON is also getting into the SYFY game.

If they go with Snow Crash, it absolutely has to take the Stranger Things angle. Don't apologize for the anachronistic nature of the material. Embrace it and just run with it.

What jefe said. What zen said. Unapologetically embrace the genre, and do not whitewash.
Heracles. Fists. Pantheon.
