Dune: Prophecy (Max)

[puckhead]

Set 10K years prior to Paul Atreides and focusing on the Bene Gesserit origins. I hope they give background on the other guilds as well.

Damn that looks good

I have to be honest. As good as this looks? I don't trust Max as a platform. Especially, with super expensive shows which this will be. The average cancellation rate on streaming platforms is around 10% to 12%. Max is operating at a 26.9% clip going back to 2020. YIKES. I know they have been doing a ton of restructuring but that is more than double any other platform.

Oh damn… this starts right after Penguin ends, huh?

It looks good, but I gotta be honest… I think it sucks that HBO is going the way of every other media company.

If HBO’s flagship Sunday night’s just become a rotation of Batman, Dune and Harry Potter franchise fare, that strikes at the heart of original story telling. Their Sunday night shows used to be what separated them from everyone else, taking chances on original ideas no one else would, with great talent across the board.
