Produced by just means "paid for by," anyway.
So there's a chance it can still suck if Amazon pays the wrong people to make it.
Even if they pay the right people, it may still suck if they try to influence the creative process at all. Over all, I am not optimistic.
The showrunner worked on all three of the TV series so as long as he doesn’t try something like rebooting SGU it might be good.
But if it starts with a drastically older Robert Carlyle defrosting I’m only giving it two episodes.
they said it's not going to be a reboot of anything.
Open the gates!
The one actor who I most want to reprise their role is Michael Welch as Jack
holy shit. so much this
Do you know why Ha'tak floats but a Chappa'ai cannot?
I feel like I should... but I am drawing a blank. Illuminate me?
Amazon Rings of Power
Huh. Never bothered to watch that train wreck, so I guess I was only reacting to the Goa'uld words!
Rings of Power.
The problem is when they abruptly cut off funding and sit on the IP indefinitely.
That's what they did to James Bond .
I hate Amazon as much as is humanly possible, thats not what is happening, though.
Denis villaneuve is directing the movie and has stated that he is isnt looking for a new james bond until dune 3 is finished.
Also, fwiw, barb sat on the IP for no good reason. She was probably looking for a buyer, because a new Bond movie should have happened 2.5ish years ago.
Barbara no longer controls the creative IP.
I thought James Bond is special though? The family still gets to approve the script, so the issue is that Amazon wants to milk it with a crap story, and the family says no this isn't good enough.
Negative, barbara broccoli sold the creative rights to Amazon.
So Amazon sits on the IP because Bezos doesn't get his way
This is incorrect.

Or if they demand changes, which usually comes with the territory of the person writing the checks.
