    So far as we're aware, Chandra and Ajani never really interacted until the Gatewatch days; she was trained on Regatha by the monks of Keral Keep and Mother Luti (aka Jaya Ballard in disguise)

      I dunno if this is even a young Chandra, could just be a slight redesign to try to give her a more distinct and consistent look, which is honestly something she's kind of lacked for a while (goggles, red hair, gauntlet are basically the only things that have stuck). It could also just be a sort of anthology-style series, one part of which stars younger Chandra, a retelling of Purifying Fire or something, another part stars Ajani, etc.

      Now why would any company want to have highly successful advertisements that people will stare at for 30+ minutes at a time, talk about with their friends and co-workers, praise on the internet in seemingly never ending threads and even binge watch on repeat? Especially advertisements that other media outlets will do advertisements for free of charge, just so they can cash in on the zeitgeist?
      That makes absolutely no sense whatsoever.

Just an embarrassment but everyone wants to whine about the shows that conform to canon but have white captains being held accountable for screw ups or there's a gay character, then give SNW a pass for actually destroying Trek's legacy because the character development is back to extremist right wing business as usual.

    Hasbro and Netflix announcing the series so early in its development process was just a blatant attempt to appease shareholders and boost stock prices. Remember, this announcement came before some of WotC’s successes in other media, like D&D: Honor Among Thieves and BG3. Wall Street analysts have previously accused Hasbro of “under-exploiting” its IP (laughable for anyone who actually plays Magic and now endures three million set releases a year, but this is how finance suits think). Cue a high budget presentation with a semi-famous (sorry Brandon Routh) actor to appease disgruntled shareholders. But the reality is most shows/movies get stuck in development hell. Just because someone buys a project doesn’t mean that it will even make it to pre-production (nevermind production)-in fact, most projects simply don’t. I’m slightly irked that gaming news outlets are reporting that the Magic show is now “heading into production.” All Netflix and entertainment media outlets like Variety have reported is that there’s a new showrunner attached. That does not mean that pre-production has even started yet; it likely means a new writers room and a new stab at creating a show bible that Netflix and Wizards are willing to greenlight. So, possibly starting from scratch, possibly a fresh pair of eyes to edit what’s been done already (if that’s much of anything at this point). I would not be surprised if eOne, the production company that used to handle all of Hasbro’s forays into film/TV but was laboriously sold off to Lionsgate when Hasbro began desperately searching for parts of its portfolio that it could jettison for cash, was previously involved in some iteration of the show, and it being sold to a different company added to the kerfuffle around the show.
    Anyway, long rant to say that companies like Hasbro could do better in managing fan expectations and publicly traded companies are all to happy to trade on the news of something that isn’t close to being real yet.

    I disagree a bit on the "Lore doesnt matter" take. Its true that if you want to tell new storys you need to be ready to make some sacrificies and write some parts new. But that only applies to details. Bigger plotpoints and characterarcs/personalities should most definitly stay how they where. If you go against it it will feel disconnected or straight up create an alternate universe (which might be fine but then it should be thought off and be treated as such)

    I trust that you weren't joking when you said "as a fan of old school star trek, should I check out Picard season 3?" but that's totally something someone might say as a joke. Yes, yes you should. I can't 100% confirm that you'll like it, but if you've already watched the first 2 seasons (which barely had anything to do with the older shows) you might as well watch the one season that is essentially a sequel to TNG.
    Also, imo, regardless of whether you like it or not, I hope it will convince you that something being produced by Terry Matalas isn't something to be worried about. I think the reasons some people don't like his work are usually things like "not as similar to the source material as I expected" and "the vibe just isn't for me" but imo the stories and characters are always great. To me, learning that the MTG show would be produced by him made me stop worrying that it's just going to be some bullshit cash grab with shallow characters and a generic plot. Because those are things I've never seen Terry Matalas do.

    Its definitely a full reboot as the previous one with Routh did not have Ajani in it, or at least not in the first 10 episodes.

    I liked season 3 of Picard, but I jumped in out of context and kinda had to accept not knowing what the hell is going on, and even so, if you like next gen you will get warm fuzzies and a tear well up every now and again.

  • @seanfleming8965

    I say, release it EVEN IF ITS BAD:
    even if it bombs, there will be engagement from the fans as to what was good and what was awful, that way in 5+ years when the idea for a show resurfaces, we can make a good show.
    OR they can just study how ARCANE was made and not waste everyone's time.

    Just let a japanese studio do it tbh, most of the good netflix anime was done by japanese studios in the first place; Devilman Crybaby, Cyberpunk 2077, PLUTO etc. I don't think Baki really count but you could count that as well. Castlevania was okay season1 but completely dropped the ball in season 2, Dota anime was pretty mediocre, Arcane was alright.

    As far as lore goes its how its done and perceived motivations behind it. Changes can happen but when the IP is so built those changes are harder. Im a POC, its great to see other POC characters but when those characters are being used to replace established ones it is just a hand me down. I want characters that are actually ours not a black superman for example.

    The show could be a great opportunity to rewrite a bunch of the weaker plot points they rushed while writing the lore. Of course, I don't have a lot of hope since some of that awful writing allowed for the status quo of the story we have now. BTW, does anyone really care about Chandra as a character? She works more as a mascot than anything.

    If the show will actually come to pass it will break cannon in some ways but if it’s a great show most people won’t care and haters are gonna get shut out. The reason why shows like the acolyte was so hated wasn’t because the cannon was broken, it was because it was genuinely in most people opinions trash. Barely anyone showed fallout hate when people realized that the show was genuinely fire. There will always be haters but so if 50000 cards of lore doesn’t get followed to a tee.

In a post credit scene we will see her years later on the plane of Regatha with Jaya and Ajani in some stupid avengers type set up for a Movie called Magic the Gathering: The Gate Watch set to Air in like 4 years so they can tell a member of the Gate watches backstory per season.

    I still think mtg would make for a fantastic RPG. Imagine a progression system similar to the path of exile skill tree, where instead of 3 main directions you have 5, all representing a color in magic. Maybe the border between colors represents color pairs, maybe getting something in the blue skill tree affects something in the red skill tree to feel like that color pair. I think the potential depth in that system would resonate with the players if the card game given how deep its interactions can be. But i guess some crappy Diablo knock off is good enough

  • @finnt4937
    @finnt4937 3 วันที่ผ่านมา

    They should absolutely do something with the characters that works for a series and do their own thing. I read some of the magic lore, the books from the 90‘s and eaerly 2000 are not dogshit, but lets be real, the story since the planeswalkers are introduced is okay for a cardgame lore, but that one to one adopted as a series is a 6/10 at best, it does absolutely nothing unique or remotely daring or surprising. BUT they have some of the coolest characters designs , concept ideas and god damn environmental design ever made, thanks to the artist. Take that and pair that with some exceptional writing and pls do not make it pg13, thanks.

    Everything about that show just sounds like it is in production hell. You never know, I recently watched that new Terminator anime on Netflix that's actually pretty good, but I'm also not very confident.
    I still don't understand why it's so difficult for them to do anything with the IP, when Dungeons and Dragons gets at least some games every now and then. Like we got a Magic set about Baldurs Gate 3 before a good Magic videogame that's not just a simulator of the cardgame.
    Say what you will about Games Workshop, but I think them giving their IP to both large and small studios works pretty well. Yeah there are inevitably some stinkers, but there also are a lot of decent to great titles from cheap indie-level games to big AAA productions.

    I place a lot of value on the lore because without it, there's no point. The majority of fan bases are formed around the history, of a series, and if you decide to change that, then you disenfranchise the majority of your fanbase, what's the point? You can make Harry Potter into a jedi because lore doesn't matter, Star Wars could happen At hogwarts inside a room, it doesn't matter. You can make up like any bullshit you wanted to, and then the whole point of your story becomes pointless.

    oh vince vince, you do realize that the reason why the lore is a pickup point for fans? because it is COHESIVE. That's why MTG lore was never really a major thing, because wotc and hasbro did not give a fck about fleshing it out, whereas GW put major effort in establishing certain things. Also - mumbling about neckbeards and boys clubs is really old, considering there's a lot of badass women in WH.

They also introduced a ton of bs woke identity politics and characters that were forced upon the shows for obvious reasons. People are over it and its showing.. make a shit show get cancelled.
