Especially if it’s only one movie or book.

I'm a Pbs Passport subscriber and there's this show called Expedition with Steve Backshall where this guy ventures in to places where nobody has ever been before like long lava tubes and remote islands to find unique wildlife. Unfortunately, there are only 2 seasons

Obvious one, but Firefly.

You know the venture bros is basically the same universe.

Whatever Sky Captain and the World of Tomorrow was.

[-] spittingimage@lemmy.world 3 points 7 hours ago

Genre-wise, I'd call it dieselpunk.

[-] Nemo@slrpnk.net 7 points 10 hours ago

Space Westerns, more Space Westerns pls

[-] Trent@lemmy.ml 7 points 11 hours ago

More Culture books by Banks, more Discworld by Pratchett...

[-] themoken@startrek.website 3 points 8 hours ago

Another person of refinement and good taste, I see. Both gone way too early. I have been rationing Discworld since Pratchett died.

[-] absGeekNZ@lemmy.nz 2 points 3 hours ago

You don't ration Discworld, you reread it every 5 years.

And maybe revisit a favourite or six every other year.

Ive been so disapointed in stuff I really have no wish for anything in particular.

[-] Gerudo@lemmy.zip 4 points 10 hours ago

The OA
Carnival
Constantine
Kaos

[-] bunkyprewster@startrek.website 2 points 7 hours ago

I still think about OA a lot.

[-] Isotretinoin@lemmy.ml 6 points 11 hours ago

Band of Brothers type of show but for ww1

[-] bob_lemon@feddit.org 2 points 11 hours ago

They could use the same trench set for the entire season.

[-] UncleArthur@lemmy.world 3 points 10 hours ago

It's eight books in total (sorry) but I'd love to see a TV adaptation of Julian May's Saga of Pliocene Exile and the associated Galactic Milieu novels. Apparently, it was in the running vs. The Wheel Of Time ... perhaps I should be grateful it lost!

Otherwise, and looking at more modern stuff:

1899, Kaos, Constantine, and The Bastard Son of the Devil Himself.

[-] spittingimage@lemmy.world 3 points 7 hours ago

It hurt to lose 1899 just when things were getting interesting.

[-] UncleArthur@lemmy.world 1 points 14 minutes ago

Indeed, especially knowing what might have been in store from the makers of DARK.

[-] luthis@lemmy.nz 5 points 11 hours ago* (last edited 11 hours ago)

Labyrinth. With more labyrinthing and less singing and dancing.

Tintin!

And Dredd. Those last 2 really deserved sequels.

[-] TheLeadenSea@sh.itjust.works 3 points 11 hours ago

The Owl House

The Singularity Sky/Iron Sunrise series

The Prayer for the Crown Sky/Psalm for the Wild Built series

Harry Potter and the Methods of Rationality

[-] riskable@programming.dev 1 points 9 hours ago

Spellmonger.

I wish the author would stop writing side stories about characters no one cares about and focus on the MC and progressing the main story forwards.

[-] MisterNeon@lemmy.world 2 points 12 hours ago

Codex Borgia

Manly video games like gears of war. They are making everything woke, gay and bland now. Even GTA 6 is going in that direction, and I remember when vice city came out it became popular because of the media shitstorn it caused with even politicians talking about regulating that kind of content.

[-] DagwoodIII@piefed.social 1 points 11 hours ago

There were two Travis McGee movies, both pretty meh. I'd like to see the novels done as 6 hour series.

[-] spittingimage@lemmy.world 1 points 11 hours ago

Barry Hughart's tales of Master Li Kao and Number Ten Ox. There are three books in the series, but he originally planned more. I believe he had some issues with his publisher and gave up on writing the follow-ups. Shame, because it's my favourite fantasy series.
