I've stalled out on watching child's play 3 because everyone says it's the worst by far but it sounds like I really have to power through. The first two are seriously awesome.

Eh it’s not that bad first off but I’d just watch the dead meat recap or something. It hasn’t really come up at all In the series yet.

While the Kill Counts are, counts of the kills in horror movies, the host James, summarizes the movies and gives bits of trivia as well. It's honestly a great way to catch up, especially in cases like this. Plus, he is a cool dude in general! Here is a link to the playlist of the chucky ones https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=INo8_xMA3tQ

I watched the first two episodes of Silo on Apple last night. While some elements have been changed from the first book, it's definitely faithful overall, especially in tone. Hope it gets the audience it deserves to get a second season. I read an interview with the author of the books who is involved with the show, and it sounds like the first season doesn't cover all of book one. My complete guess based on my reading of the books is that the season ends with Juliette leaving the silo for her cleaning with her new and improved hazard suit, and discovers the second abandoned silo.

I did read Wool many years ago. It was ok, but I had zero desire to read any of the other books. It was like I had enough of that story. Every time I've seen the trailer for Silo I feel the same way. Still I might give it a try once all the episodes are out.

I take it from those who have read Silo that the payoff is worth it? Or is it less mystery box and just a good ride? I’ll need to read some cliff notes for the show because I already forgot why ‘cleaning’ was a big deal when someone went outside.

Haptical Sales Slut posted:I take it from those who have read Silo that the payoff is worth it? Or is it less mystery box and just a good ride? Yeah, I enjoyed it as an easy fun read, along the lines of The Expanse. They do a good job fleshing out the world, and they explain everything from what I remember. As long as they mostly follow the books, the show shouldn't have any major issues with a mystery box. The only thing they might have to switch up, or at least reveal right away is from the second book Shift we follow seemingly two different characters in two separately distant timelines, only for it to be revealed that they are the same person.

It definitely is a mystery box but in this case the whole thing has already been written and it's enjoyable, so I wouldn't expect any Lost-style adding new poo poo to stretch it out without a resolution in mind.

The Silo books were a mystery box and I regret every moment that I spent reading them but that's not to say the show will be one or that it's a spoiler for the show, lots of adaptations go in very different directions from their source material

Really enjoyed the first two eps of Silo as someone who didn't even know the books existed. It's major Expanse S1 vibes following a murder mystery that I take it similarly just goes off the rails into a much bigger thing.

I think we had discussed this possibility a few months ago (and I know it's basically like this already outside of the US), but D+ is going to merge, D+/Hulu/E+ into a single app. I'm down for it to be honest in terms of UX, but I know it's probably going to come with a price increased. https://gizmodo.com/disney-hulu-espn-streaming-services-bob-iger-1850426001

Totally understandable but I will say that Child's Play 1 and 2 are legit good and super fun, Child's Play 2 is loving awesome and worth a watch even if you don't see the original (but it rules that they've had one single continuity across them all and the series).

I was having issues with Disney+ and Hulu that had me getting hit with incorrect password prompts all the time until I discovered that despite the fact they're on different domains, they share the same password. It's probably better if they merge.
