I just read the whole WOOL series a few weeks ago. Pretty damn good, and I don't usually like post-apocalyptic fiction. The Shift series (prequel story), sadly, wasn't nearly as good.

Bobcat Release - (The Prequel) has been added as a related post - related requested by Barseps on that post.

Snowmen...with fangs...
And I thought the prequel minisode looked goofy.

Did everyone forget that Disney also did the avengers movie (which was awesome) and own pixar too. They cannot do a worse job than Lucas did on phantom menace and they might actually use fans of the franchise to direct and write for it. It MIGHT be good


I think the "it MIGHT be good" mentality is why we continued to watch the prequels in the first place.

*geek *space

It better be good as BG (2003) or better than prequel spinoff (forgot its name already).

haha! I thought you were joking!

It's too bad they didn't bring Mark back for the prequels in 2004... or that his jaunt into stage acting didn't earn him the respect he sought.

Still, this is an interesting, albeit chincey, retrospective on an old saga.>> ^Tokoki:

Anybody else spot the soft porn video this was taped over at the end?

Riiiight, ruining your childhood, like George Lucas didn't already do that with the prequels... Or the infamous Holiday Special... I really don't see why anyone cares by this point what is done with the Star Wars franchise (which is exactly what it has been even before the prequels, a franchise, a way to get your money for products of sometimes dubious quality) I really liked the original trilogy, but I'm also pretty content to just ignore everything else or at the very least shrug my shoulders and say "meh, whatever"

After buying countless, differing versions of the original trilogy over the years, surviving the prequels, and seeing what a mess the entire franchise has become, Star Wars has long since been dead to me. After Indy 4, Lucas deserves to have his arms torn off by the proverbial Wookie.

I'm just glad he didn't have any hand in the Back to the Future movies.

I love you, dft.

I rather disliked this movie. So much was going on and you were never given enough time to properly digest what is happening in any one event as it's straight onto the next bit. Yet despite all that happened, it actually felt like absolutely nothing happens in the whole movie as it just went no where, goddamn sequel baiting. You can tell this was written by one of go-nowhere writers of Lost. If they are trying to set up for a trilogy or something, this is an extremely poor way to do it. All good series have some events begin and some events resolve in each episode. This one had nothing resolved.

The characters were simply fodder with no personality, not that you were ever given a chance to really get to know them as there were no dialogue scenes of any significance, the scenes they did have were all awkward and ultimately pointless. And of course that fucking ending, it seems it's trying to tac on bits to say "this is an Alien prequel" yet it doesn't sync up with Alien at all!

The Thing did a MUCH better job at being a prequel to an old movie.

It was however, fucking BEAUTIFUL visually

Is this the prequel to Lost?
