The movie was terrible/not representative of the book as could be expected for such a short runtime. The effects were ok but I’m not really there for that

I’m curious, have you watched full episodes to form this opinion?

Actually that's a better way to describe it! The CGI quality is really uneven. >!Like all space scenes are good to me. The people are decent but yes the dehydration scenes are probably the worst. And the physics of when the bodies 'pour' out of the pyramids...what?!!<

Yeah so far so good, no bloat but for sure they are not rushed. The conversion of this book into a shorter film form is the big reason many including myself are quite worried about the upcoming Netflix version, though I do hope it can also be fun to watch, I can't imagine it reaching the depths of the Tencent version.

Agreed on all points. The CGI (>!mostly the virtual world scenes!<) is probably the worst part of the show for me. It is kindof surprisingly bad? Not bad, just not up to par with the rest of the show and certainly not excellent

Yeah I'll admit that's a big draw to me; I love when writers have lots of runtime to work with. It (in the right hands) does the subject matter better justice and they seem to really have splurged on this.

A yes! Forgot the essential bit.

Added tip: I found setting the subtitles to 150% works best

Reply to 1899 Is A Phenomenal! A Worthy Spiritual Successor To Dark - It Succeeds Where Dark Failed by AnakinRagnarsson66
Loved Dark, enjoyed 1899.
I personally feel the first 3-4 episodes were a bit too slow and they dumped too much of the 'reveals' in the last episodes.
Storywise, I am very interested now that I've completed the season, but wish we had spent more time on the lore/world building rather than the character development in the first few episodes. At least for me, none of the characters really grabbed my attention.
