Never seen a show more stupid than Foundation

Is it really that bad? The books were quite okay. But I got used to the fact that all shows rn SUCK so bad I can’t even watch anything any more. Where are all the talented writers? 🥲🥲🥲

I can go for Lee Pace so sexy 😁 but I will always have Halt and Catch Fire for that. Majorly underrated show imo

It's like

wow psychohistory, feel the future (?), space animals, Lee Pace so sexy, eighty-six million prime numbers, pew pew, robot sex, robot sad about being emotional (?), quantum computer superposition, hand waving, projections, my daughter is older than me 

...and everyone lived happily ever after in the Vault

Dune just so happens to be a glimmer of hope in these dark times. I’ve lost hope after Netflix cancelled the OA and then completely wrecked the Witcher that anything along the lines of sci-fi/fantasy can be good these days.

I so wanted it to be good!
It should have been amazing.

Yet, it just stuck me as epicly expensive, spectacularly rendered CG cringe.

Spending this much money on that beloved IP/artwork means we'll now have to wait years before the next production company gets a stab at doing something amazing with it.

Like Dune did.
