Metal Hurlant Chronicles

Post by LadyWinterWolf »

Reminds me a lot of "The Ray Bradbury Theatre" from the 1990s; the half hour episodes work well with pushing as much excitement in as possible in a short period of time. One hour episodes would be too drawn out and eventually lose the attention of the viewer; especially if the information was forced. I've only seen two episodes, but I truly enjoyed "The Endomorph" the best so far.

Anyone else seen it as yet and have any opinions?

I saw both episodes last night and liked them both.

I didn't know it was supposed to be a short-story kind of show, where each episode was self-contained, so I was a little surprised by the twist ending of the first. Now that I know the format, I look forward to seeing what they do with it, and I also know how to relate to what I'm seeing - don't read too much into anything; don't look for plot/character development; don't expect expensive sets or costumes because each episode has its own budget, etc. Basically it's a snack for the mind, but a tasty snack.

By A roku BM, I have no cable either and still get more then I ever did with Cable. Ruku + Playon TV + Plex media server = unlimited access to the world of TV. Yes, even sports ;)

Download episoded, through them onto a memory stick and plug it into your Roku 3 and whala! It's on your big screen! :D
