Would like to see Watchmen - the series. The film was a reasonable attempt to portray the comic books. Although Alan Moore disowned it completely.

I have Watchmen on DVD and agreed it's up there from the DC Comics to film efforts,
I wonder what more is included on the 'Ultimate' edition?.

Give me Marvel over DC any day. DC always seem to take themselves too seriously whereas Marvel has a warped sense of humour for the most part.

That's not that high a pile to climb though.

I enjoyed the film, but as always its not a patch on the original work. The TV series is looking good so far and I hope for the best.

I enjoyed Start Trek Discovery, and very much so the second series. Will be interesting to see where the Pike spin off goes.

It was better than Green Lantern. As a kid Green Lantern was one of my favourite series. Second after the Silver Surfer

Check out the book 'The Enterprise War' - effectively the run-up to the 2nd Discovery series which explains Spock's mental oddness and introduces elements that the series built on.

There is to be a new series with Picard, looking forward to that.

Fringe is probably my favourite from the last 20 years (except the last series which was a bit weak). The remake of Battlestar Gallactica is well worth watching as well.
