New ship tv serie The Terror


Captain Jean-Luc Picard

Recommended Posts

Heh, it's the reunion of Julius Caesar and Brutus!

Question to all producers, though...

That one shot at 0:25 probably cost you thousands of dollars and a huge amount of man hours by a professional CGI studio. And you don't spend even a tiny bit of effort getting the sails to look right?

Who ARE these people in ShowBiz who control the purse strings or deploy costly digital art programs, and rather than navigate to Google freakin' Images and copy a random painting, they just try to eyeball everything? Imagine if the next FPS game to come out expected its designers to render an M16 or an Abrams tank by memory, without visual aids?

no, it's a reunion of Edmure Tully and Mance Rayder.  (GOT was a reunion of Julius Caesar and Brutus)

YEAH indeed! I loved HBO's "Rome", fantastic series.

 

Unfortunately they cut it short with 2 seasons.  Future seasons could've had a lot of potential.  It was a bit risqué but still very captivating series.

I really want to watch another sailing ship combat like ADMIRAL or Black Sails . 

 

Admiral was a very good movie, agreed.

The book was a very good read, the cast ain't bad...looking forward to the series.

I really wonder how they portray the monster, tho.

On a side note, the HMS Terror in the trailer looks a lot like the real thing (except the rigging) would have, including the stupidly thick wales.
