Watched this the other night - it was pretty fun.

Just finished Monarch and enjoyed it although the time jumps confused the hell out of me in the beginning.
Definitely hope for Season 2.

This got great reviews, and I started watching with high expectations, and really didn’t like it. I thought it was going to be a story about Monarch tracking down Titans and figuring out how to deal with them, but it was nothing like that. The leads are supposedly young adults (one even had two children) but they act like emo teens, and I don’t really care about them and find them unlikable. Way too much angst and family/relationship drama, and too little monsters. I’m half at through and thinking about stopping wasting my time.

DARK MATTER Trailer (2024) Joel Edgerton, Jennifer Connelly

I read Dark Matter a couple months ago and it's a really book. That trailer looks like they're doing very book-faithful version of the story, but they gave away pretty much the whole plot in the trailer. There's still one big twist left that immediately comes to mind, but a lot of surprises that are revealed slowly in the book and blatantly stated in that trailer. Odd decision
