Watchmen could work as a tv miniseries. I just think it's sad that Watchmen has become a story that can never be let go.

Ville Valo posted:Where/when/why? Back in the August the CW President said Legends of Tomorrow would be their last DC show. They only have 10 hours of TV a week and three of it is already DC related (four if you count their best show, iZombie). I'd imagine they don't want the perception of them to be DC's TV channel or something. X-O fucked around with this message at 22:13 on Oct 2, 2015 |

Dacap posted:http://variety.com/2015/tv/news/marvel-abc-comedy-tv-series-damage-control-1201608690/ This would be bigger news if NBC wasn't developing a DCU show with a very similar premise. Does this property really fit the MCU that well, though? Even with recent developments on SHIELD, it's hardly struck me as a place where superhero/villain/alien poo poo is remotely as common as it is in 616.

When Alan Moore bargained with the snake god Glycon for his powers, this is the price he paid: he will never own his most famous work, and it will constantly be adapted in ways he does not approve of.

The only Moore approved adaptation is Not the Watchmen XXX

I was reading a thing about the Damage Control series and it won't completely disappear into nothing as so many others have as the show has a put pilot commitment. Which means that no matter what they have to at least make and air a pilot.

Well that doesn't mean they have to air it, just means if they don't they owe a larger sum of money than it's probably worth.

I hope they can hook up Damage Control so that it's cleaning up basically every action sequence in the MCU whether it be movies, SHIELD or Netflix. They don't need to be blatant about it, just have the disaster-of-the-week be whatever the action-of-the-week was on something else.

Barry Convex posted:Why is there a sign *in the window* saying it's on the fifth floor, though? Well, all the costumed characters can't just come in the front door for her services, and are always using the fire escape.In fact they probably have that on every floor - in much the same way houses on either side of a Brothel have really clear signage, the other business probably take great care to divert potential colateral-damage-events to the right floor. "Geralds Accounting, 3rd floor, Alias is two floors up there" "Precision garment mending, 9th floor, you have gone too far, drop down four."

She's actually just a floor above Nelson and Murdock. They just had a lot of poo poo going on this past year and never said hello.
