Rogue One... The kids are going to flip when they see the teaser. And dang, now I wish I spoke Italian. That TV series looks epic!
ReplyDeleteThe series is shot in English, just dubbed in Italian :) They're selling it worldwide in English
DeleteI didn't think that sounded like Dustin Hoffman. I mean really, he's a little dweepy doo and could never pull off that sexy accent :0)
Deletehe never could! Since I'm not a fan of his acting, it's good news that he dies in the first episode and then Dicky Madden takes it all over... nom nom nom
DeleteMadden is a hottie!
DeleteI absolutely adore him! And personality not just looks, he is one of those good disciplined, educated boys not a spoilt brat of Hollywood
DeleteI like the premise for Medici, but the trailer not so much. Too many short, choppy segments. I just know it doesn't do justice the show or the actors.
ReplyDeletethat is because it is only the first teaser not a trailer :)
DeleteI hadn't heard about either of these. I always learn so much here. :) Not sure about the Stars Wars spinoff- but I am sure it will be popular with lots of fans.
ReplyDelete~Jess
that is because the spy knows it all first! STAR WARS could be bad since they had to do emergency reshoots a week ago :)
DeleteThe Medicis are interesting. I haven't seen Hoffman in anything for a while. Great actor.
ReplyDeleteI'm just nervous we won't get an English language version as soon as the Italian one :(
DeleteMedici might be something I would like, but I'm with H.R. here. The teaser didn't do it much justice, but your description redeemed it for me.
ReplyDeleteit is just a teaser for Italian telly, nothing overly official :)
DeleteI hope the spinoff doesn't suck
ReplyDeletethey say it might given that the studio brought them back last week to do emergency reshoots, apparently they did not like director's cut :)
DeleteStar Wars....yawn.
ReplyDeleteI want to see Medici, what a crazy, cunning and ambitious family. I don't dislike Hoffman, but he just doesn't seem right for the role. Not enough machismo for it. However, that doesn't put me off it.
Dahlink, we is under both a flood watch and a tornado watch right now. I could either be swept away by flood waters or blown away by a tornado. Kind of like the two options available to the Brits tomorrow when they vote :0)
But he does have something ebil and slimy and sneaky in him... purrfect for a banker :) He drops dead in the very first episode, so we won't have to suffer him much, after that it is just eight blissful episodes of Dicky Me Madden!
DeleteWhaaaat! Hope you took all precautions! Did you cement your garden chairs to the ground? Oh, what will happen with clovers? We're all tropical here, just been outside to feed the beast and it is 40*C at 9am! Morning, dear, morning!
That storm was dangerous, like a living monster, very scary. Nearly the whole town was awake as it was so loud. There were trees down in some parts of town and damage to buildings but on my street, we were okay. We've been without electricity till now. We've another storm just like it coming through in a few hours. At least it will be daylight so people can spot a tornado and call it in.
DeleteHorrible! Hope your roof stays where it should. Why do people build wooden houses where there are tornadoes? We only have brick houses here. Hope you stay fine! Sounds ghastly! Meanwhile, we're well over 40*C here, just been outside and it is terrible. It's 30*C inside, in my bathroom and halls and stairs :(
DeleteI've always been fascinated by Florence and the Medicis!
ReplyDeletethey ever so cool in DA VINCI'S DEMONS too! My dearest Elliott Cowan did a great job with Lorenzo Medici!
DeleteRichard Madden looks ravishing. At first glance, I can't help shaking off the red wedding I have seemed to associate with him. The Medicis have always been quite intriguing.The storyline you shared makes it even more interesting for me to want to delve deeper.
ReplyDeleteand that storyline is just the first episode :)
DeleteI hate spin-offs. They give me the willies.
ReplyDeleteI never knew! Blimey!
DeleteI hate spin-offs. They give me the willies.
ReplyDeletewhere do I get in line to get willies?
DeleteUm...
Deleteexactly
DeleteRogue One, I can't wait untill december!
ReplyDeleteGreetings
Peter
hope get a new trailer till the end of summer
