NYCC, Scream, and returns....
Oct. 13th, 2021 04:35 pm++ NYCC happened and some things were announced, two in particular that pertain to my interests specifically. First is that the final season of The Expanse will only be six episodes instead of ten, which I'll admit part of me is a bit saddened by this however I trust their decision on doing this and I hope that the last six episodes of the series will be a worthwhile wild ride in concluding the story. Secondly, Critical Role's panel not only had them discuss a bit about The Legend of Vox Machina with a little bit of a sneak peek in footage, but we now know that it'll be released in February of 2022! I'm super excited because this is what I've been really looking forward to seeing. I love Campaign One, and although I know what happens just seeing the events unfold in animation is going to be amazing. This will, undoubtedly, also bring some newcomers since I'm sure people will be curious enough to check it out, whether they are aware of Critical Role or not.
++ The trailer for the Scream (2022) film has been released, and I'm cautiously optimistic about it. There were initial rumors about this being a complete remake of the franchise, but this was toted around first as essentially being Scream 5, the fifth installment of the franchise following the events of Scream 4 (although the lack of Hayden Panettiere in the cast makes the possibility of the return of Kirby less likely which is saddening for me, personally). This is going to be the first of the Scream franchise that is without Wes Craven, so I'm a little nervous on how things are going to be done, though hopefully it'll remain true to spirit since I doubt the cast would've returned for it if it wasn't.
++ There's been a lot of announcements and things from the past returning in some form or another, like CSI has returned, the original Law & Order is said to be returning after ending years ago, there's going to be a remake of Babylon 5 for the CW, a sequel series to That 70s Show is going to happen.....I know that nostalgia is one hell of a drug, but we've been living in a era of entertainment where it's so oversaturated with these remakes and reboots and such for far too long that it's like, are all of these necessary? I'm just so bored.
