On the one hand, I'm a little tired of how common movie translations of shows in fantasy world center around bringing them to Earth (there's the original Masters of the Universe movie as well as the original Smurfs movie and the one they're releasing later this year), the fact that Queen Marlena is from Earth is one of my favorite bits of continuity from the original, so hopefully they'll reference that somehow.

I watched all of both the American and UK versions of Ghosts recently. Both good shows. Interesting how they handled the necessary changes when you take a show based on the centuries of documented history of the show's country and transplant it to a country whose history is much less documented. I was a little disappointed in how the UK version used almost exclusively flashbacks to give depth to their characters without any followup.

The German version is going to come out soon (They seem to be following the UK version's set up pretty closely except for obvious reasons their soldier is from a more ancient time than WWII) and apparently there's an Australian one coming out as well.

EDIT: Also I finally finished off What We Do in the Shadows. In many ways, the show kinda had to end on a slightly unsatisfying note, as the banality and repetition of an eternal existence was pretty much the main theme.

I also saw someone accuse it of queerbaiting with the Nandor/Guillermo ship not being end game, which brings up the question: is it queerbaiting when the two characters in question are portrayed as definitely and unquestionably queer but they just don't end up together?
