Half way through the second episode really not feeling it, it’s going to be hard to stick with it anyone seen the whole series?

Just about to finish it.

It’s one that certainly won’t appeal to everyone, as it’s quite arty in the way it’s filmed in noir black and white in a mock 60’s style.

Thought Andrew Scott was perfect as Ripley, probably the closest anyones got to the character in the book. The rest of the cast not so good.

It’s certainly not a must watch.

Im up to the final episode. Find it totally different to the original film with Matt Damon / Jude Law.

The lead character is phenomenal.

Looking forward to the final episode tomorrow and hopefully it puts the icing on the cake and theres a second season.

Agree. The only thing it has going for it is Anthony Hopkins, overall the trailer looks proper budget. Peacock making it doesn't inspire faith either.

Someone needs to make a new Rome show. I'm still annoyed at how the HBO/BBC one ended. If they could make something like that again but with today's production standards, it would surely be TV gold.

Rome was excellent.

I've started reading it.

I'm gutted it's a limited series. I'd love 10 seasons of this.

If they could put a decent script together covering Nobunaga and Hideyoshi and the rise of Tokugawa(the real Torunaga) it would make for excellent telly.

Its only one season? I agree, i could watch shogun daily...

Done two episodes so far…..it’s a bit meh. I had hoped (without having played any games really) that I would enjoy it as much as did ‘The last of us’….but this is not a patch on that so far.

Yeh I’ve never played the games either. I’m enjoying it but it’s not got me hooked enough to do more than 1-2 in a row.

The Last of Us is a heavily story led game which isn’t so much the case for Fallout. It’s why so many adaptations of video games don’t translate well to TV/film.
