The Sandman (Netflix)

It's a trend now I think, I see it on Zoom meetings where it reads something like "Jon Smith (He/Him)" below the person.

David Thewlis is a solid actor.

I miht watch but i hope there is a ton of nudity

The internet is losing all cabin pressure because a black woman is going to be Death.

To be fair and honest, I get it.

I’m not going to explode but I understand why all the backlash.

Looks decent. Better than expected at least.

I utterly baffled as to why they felt it necessary to include the pronouns of the characters.

Also, I hate Patton Oswalt.

Everything we know, so far:

I’ve never read any of the source material for Game of Thrones. I genuinely tried to watch the HBO series and it was like watching paint dry; I dropped it after season one. However, the fact that I’m not a fan of said franchise doesn’t negate the fact the it’s a wildly successful series with a rabid fan base.

Neil Gaiman had better bring his A-Game if he’s gonna already compare the Netflix adaptation of his comic book the Sandman to GoT.

I sincerely hope this isn’t bastardized beyond repair like Preacher, Sweet Tooth, and Y: The Last Man were.

We deserve a proper adaptation of such a prestigious Vertigo title like the Sandman.

American God's bore zero resemblance to the book.

I have reservations from what I have seen already for Sandman.

But, I hope.

I sincerely hope they don’t f*ck this up.

Or cancel it after one season.

The Sandman is the greatest and most sophisticated graphic novel ever written.

Yeah, it was pretty frustrating when there was that "Gaiman is a hack" crap making the rounds. What was that even about?

If this works out, I wouldn't mind seeing the best Starman graphic novels adopted. The one with Jack Knight.

Visuals look nice. I'm cautiously optimistic.

That preview didn't do much for me. Still giving it a shot though.

Lucien is now Lucienne. 🙄

The character was gender swapped for “woke” reasons.

Ditto why Death is a black woman or else the show is “racist”.

dunno if i wanna pay 20 bucks/month just for this but its a possibility

Mark Hamill will be the voice of Mervyn Pumpkinhead.

I can’t kinda see this.

When does this come on so I can bring back Netflix
