New on Netflix, from Adi Shankar. Superhero satire. Very much faux-80s schlock. Wears a low budget on its sleeve. Live action, but with lots of animation of various types. Only 7 20 minute episodes. Fuck knows what kind of hot mess this could be, for better or worse. Includes Christopher Judge, Jane Seymour, Denise Richards and Derek Mears.

Brooker did another interactive thing for Netflix. A cartoon with a Tex Avery and Chuck Jones style. It's about a cat breaking into a museum, to burgle. And a dog security guard trying to stop him. Rather than making decisions on what to do next like Bandersnatch, it asks trivia questions and your answers determine if what the character is doing at that moment succeeds or not. Or as Brooker says, "you’re controlling the luck of the character, rather than the decisions they’re making". I only discovered it in this interview. It's out tomorrow.

https://deadline.com/2021/11/randall-park-blockbuster-video-store-comedy-series-netflix-from-superstore-duo-david-caspe-1234876166/ Netflix have ordered a workplace comedy set in the last Blockbuster Video store in America. Starring Randall Park and some Superstore people behind the scenes. Netflix were almost crushed by blockbuster back in the day, when Netflix were a movie rental company, and they even rebuffed an offer to sell Netflix to them. How things could have been different. Brought down by Kit-Kats in the end, innit.

Dark was a big hit, so its creators Jantje Friese and Baran bo Odar are back with Netflix with another show. It's set in 1899, around a group of migrants from around Europe and maybe further sailing to America. Their ship encounters another migrant ship adrift and...something mysterious they're not going into details on happens. It'll be multilingual with the multinational cast speaking their native tongues. It's filmed on a virtual "Volume" set, familiar to those in The Mandalorian thread. Friese and Odar actually had this built themselves, at Babelsberg studios in Germany, and set up their own company to operate it, on the back of this and Netflix committing to shooting more stuff on it. It's currently Europe's largest version of the tech.

Based on Mark Millar graphic novels. Coming to Netflix on 7 May. https://deadline.com/video/jupiters-legacy-trailer-netflix-superhero-drama-josh-duhamel/ I suppose it's a bit different than most in that it's not introducing the world to superbiengs, but they've been around for nearly a century and the world is used to them. But now it's time for the next generation to take over.

From the pair behind Arctic, starring Mads Mikkelsen. This one is set in a 3-person mission to Mars. But a fourth person, an engineer working on the ship before lift-off, seems to have somehow lost consciousness and was on board when it launched, becoming an unintended stowaway. The extra person, coupled with some damage, means there are not enough resources for four people to make it to Mars alive, only three. What to do? Stars Anna Kendrick, Daniel Dae Kim, Shamier Anderson, and Toni Collette.

Keanu and Netflix are making a live action movie and animated series of Keanu's comic BRZRKR, which appears to star someone who looks rather like Keanu from the pictures in the article, who will be played by Keanu. https://deadline.com/2021/03/keanu-reeves-brzrkr-boom-studios-netflix-1234719323/ It's about an immortal warrior. Remember the immortal Keanu stuff? Maybe it's a Keanu autobiography. Did I mention Keanu Reeves is involved?
