Avatar: Fire and Ash made $1.4 billion at the box office but is still seen, by some, as a disappointment -- now Disney is taking a hard look at further sequels.
Yeah I would love a version of Discovery Channel’s Alien Planet but with much better science writing and that focused on explaining interesting reoccurring patterns in ecosystems in evolution on earth through the lens of a fictionalized yet scientifically sound vision of a somewhat plausible alien ecosystems.
I even loved the idea of the cute robot that serves as a sort of simple plot about what happens to it as it explores. Does it avoid danger or get ensared in it?
The plot would not be the focus though, I am thinking Tarkovsky’s Stalker levels of visual and elemental expansiveness but in a genuinely entirely scifi context.
Something like Scavenger’s Reign but less obsessed with human violence and more just focused on the experience of a vibrantly portrayed alien ecosystem.
Like Mad Max: Fury Road but with cool animals instead of cool post apocalyptic cars and motorcyles… ok maybe I am stretching the metaphor too far here.
Oh dang I didn’t know that was an actual show, thanks for the heads up I’ll check it out, I haven’t really paid attention to cable TV in a while. I like the sound of what you’re cooking up there though haha, Stalker is a great film, I hadn’t heard of Over The Garden Wall either, looks interesting.
Along those lines. it would be cool if Star Wars did a series that was centered around the cantina and all the weird characters and goings on there. They could even have musical numbers, I’m thinking the Muppets band but with way more synthesizers lol.

I guess I want a sciencey Over The Garden Wall but without any easy plot explainer at the end.
