And then maybe Manifest. But I may hold on to see if there's a renewal! <br /><br />Oh and I think we're planning to binge Marvelous Mrs. Maisel next. Hopefully I can squeeze everything in!

Just watched the Jack Bender (LOST) directed "THE DOOR" where we find out the origins of Hodor right at his terrible demise. So good. Saw the beginning of the Tower of Joy stuff with Ned and Howland Reed fighting the Sword of the Morning.

They already have 2 in the works and Obi Wan makes sense. If the shows do well then they might be able to translate some of that to the big screen. April is Star Wars celebration.

Sony still owns all of the Spiderverse characters (including Spider-Man) but they lease out Spider-Man to the MCU. I heard Venom did a "good" job of not interfering with the MCU story in case they want to pull him into it some day. But, at this time it is NOT an MCU film. So weird how they're doing this. <Mike V.https://www.blogger.com/profile/07952930766822976058noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5070879978860038082.post-78665711132785810452019-02-19T12:53:12.059-05:002019-02-19T12:53:12.059-05:00GofT - wow you are rolling right along !

Jon Favreau is launching The Mandolorian for the Star Wars content. He has a pretty strong batting average.
