I dont know if any of you watch Critical Role, but they recently had a record breaking Kickstarter for an Origins cartoon and the trailer is fucking awesome.

I'm so 100% in on this, im pretty sure there is no way i wont be disappointed.

That looks brilliant! The sweetest thing about how insane the Kickstarter campaign became was how genuinely surprised they all were by it!

Watching the TV show of WHAT WE DO IN THE SHADOWS and I am laughing my head off every episode. Can't believe I've never seen the film (especially with how much I love Taika Waititi and Jermaine Clement), but I'll definitely be watching it now.

Started Altered Carbon.

Up to episode 3 so far, suitably captures the atmosphere and feel of the book. The interspersed flashbacks of the Quellist uprising are well done too.

So that's the story. And what was the real lesson? Don't leave things in the fridge.

I really liked the show, but I thought the changes they made to the backstory of the Envoys was a serious mistake.

Damn, I guess I should fast track my watching the original movie prior to this coming out. Or do you think it matters?

The original movie isn't quite as good as people hype it up to be. It's alright, but large parts of the story clunk along and the main characters aren't particularly compelling.

That being said, watch it.
