One teaser trailer later, and even though Lemony Snicket is
determined to keep us away and unexcited, Netflix was encouraged by the response
to the first season and according to Snicket, they are already starting
production for the 2nd season. Check out vastlyfrighteningdecision.com to read his full message of woe. There’s not much else to say here, except to
get hyped! Season 2 should include The
Austere Academy, The Ersatz Elevator,
The Vile Village, The Hostile Hospital, and The Carnivorous Carnival.
A full-length trailer for Season 10 just came out and I just
got another dose of excitement!
I mean, it’s been a year and a half since a new episode came
out, minus the Christmas episode, and I’m just hoping this season does not
disappoint. I don’t think I will be disappointed. It just looks so good. The trailer is packed with a lot of
things. They’re going to the past and the future, and probably a couple things
in the near present (perhaps Mars). I am still excited to see Bill. Already she
seems better than Clara. Nardole might be an interesting addition, and I do
prefer when Team Tardis does include 3 people. Missy is back, though we knew
that, but I’m looking forward to see how she fits in with the season.
There’s going to be Daleks (and there was a human saying ‘exterminate’...I
wonder what to make of that) and Cybermen and new aliens and emoji-robots. Let’s
hope they do interesting things and bring some high stakes without getting too
melodramatic.
HBO finally dropped a trailer for Game of Thrones Season 7
and I am so pumped!
They didn’t actually show us any footage of the coming
season, just what appears to be stone statues of all the major house sigils. As
though we could forget all the major players of the game: Targaryen, Baratheon,
Stark, Lannister, Tyrell.
This was a nice, quick little look back over the main events
of the past six seasons. The voiceovers were carefully chosen. It makes you think
about what all has happened and realize how many people have died and how small
the number of remaining people in each of these houses is. The Tyrells are
pretty much gone, as are the Baratheons and Targaryens. There’s only a few main
players left from each house, and there’s so much that needs to be resolved and
revealed. But will these house loyalties mean anything in the end? Possibly
not.
I loved the ending of the trailer, when the statues all
break and fall to form the symbol associated with the Children…and the Others. The
rivalries that exist between the houses must break apart for them to unite and band
together against the White Walkers and the Others. The pull back into an ice
blue eye was enough hype to last me for a while. July needs to get here soon!
There’s a new teaser for Doctor Who Season 10! Watch it here first:
It’s narrated
by the new companion Bill, who really sums up who the Doctor is with her
dialogue: “He says he’s a man of peace, but he walks in war”. I’m already
wondering how much of an influence the other Time Lords are going to have on
this season. Will there be any more confrontation between the Doctor and the
rest? How will Missy fit into the picture?
I’m thinking that the season will start off with some sort
of alien problem at whatever university Bill is attending. If the footage in
the trailer is from the season, they are probably in a library on campus (and
whatever was shooting looked a little bit like Dalek fire, but I could be
wrong). Throughout the episode Bill runs into the Doctor or Nardole three
times, and that’s as much as it takes to convince her to travel along with him.
But that’s just speculation and predicting fun based off a 25-second teaser. (And what are those ghost faces? New aliens, yay!)
I’m a little wary about her line “even if it kills me”,
because I don’t want the writers to kill her right off the bat and it just
follows in this line of killing off companions. But I won’t read too much into
it. Most likely they’ll use her like Rose to bridge the gap between new
Doctors. And I’m really excited to get to know her; she seems like an average
sort of companion, about my age. Back to the roots of DW; no more Impossible
Girls, please!
