It looks well made but Warwick Davis voice over makes it seem shit at the same time. He sounds like a disinterested teacher explaining something he cares little for anymore.

When did Willow become actually good at magic? Wasn't the whole film about how shit he was at it, and he saved the day not through magic but the type of trick you'd see at a children's birthday party?

Wow. They're really dredging the depths of the 80s because they're desperate for that nostalgia cash rather than generate any new ideas aren't they.

I love the original movie, but a new one is so hilariously unnecessary.

I'd be amazed if it doesn't get cancelled after the 3rd episode. Netflix have become the EA of streaming.

Your words are pearls mate. They're always throwing away shows with an established audience in search of the next "big thing".

I mean I won’t miss the post Lost bullshit plot lines but I will miss one of my favorite on screen couples. :(

Hobbit with an Oirish accent made me laugh. Visually it looks stunning, can't fault them on that. Story wise I don't hold out much hope but you never know.

Does that chap who wrote a 9 minute rant about a 2 minute trailer use the word "woke" as an insult I wonder. Oh no, diversity! The horror!
