I love Chris Pine, but he has such a terrible track record. He just makes terrible movies and shows.

I don't agree with this at all, there are many successful movies that don't have established stories and characters and there are many complete flops that do.

With that said, I don't have much hope for this movie. The ads are weird, it is just so shake and bake.

Sure, go buy the rights.

Yep

It has happened many times.

Because the show is just terrible.

Season one started great, they reskinned the character but stayed pretty close to the source material. A lot of that got thrown out in the final two episodes and it became very close the shit show that was to follow.

Season two was just wanna be SEAL team dogshit.
