I'm surprised they did it that way. You'd think having a weekly episodic release would be more profitable because people would have to stay subscribed longer to finish a series.
Not really. If 1 million people watch something over a weekend or over two months the viewing figures will still be the same.
Normal TV presumably has a few months grace before renewals are confirmed and filming restarts so why would Netflix be different? They aren't obligated to renew stuff after a week.
It's probably a similar situation to King, the writer has a totally different sensibility of what the story is from a producer or director, and probably has no business trying to decide what should be on screens. Gaiman has just been much more protective of his brand, so waiting until Netflix gave him a carte blanche was a bit of a monkey's paw.
And simply what works in a comic, doesn't work on screen.
You can get away with a lot more abbreviated storytelling or wacky concepts in a comic than you can in a TV series.
muh algorithm
how come netflix has no vision? metrics can't measure everything important. They're only good for short-term optimizing. If you run your company off metrics for years though without some subjective vision, you're gonna get eaten up by competitors.
Like, her skin was aggressively white. Shr wasnt even caucasian she was a fricking "White" woman. They literally went out of their way to wienerslap fans with that casting choice.
Meanwhile Cobra Kai's season 5 was fantastic, couldn't love on fans enough and it still managed to say something new and I can't wait for season 6.b
They did the same shit in Deadpool 2 with Domino. I don't get raceswapping characters when they have such a distinct and unique look, what the frick is the point
netflix cancels almost everything, but this show started off serious, then halfway through, around episode 4 or 5, it's as if Seth Rogen showed up and said "let me take over" and the stories went crazy, also they just said "frick it" on the last episode and literally gave up on the whole show and made some shorts instead LOL
Everyone agrees that's where the show fell apart, after the one-off with the immortal man. I wonder if the writers changed over or if it was just Netflix pushing for the teen audience.
This. Got off to an interesting start, but then when it started being about that black chick and her brother and the vortex it all went to shit.
Nah they are just trying to tell the stories of the comics in publication order, without realizing the tempo of TV is diferrent and doesnt build the same
Even when Sandman was collected they re-arranged the order of the comics and left that stuff until a bit later.
I didn't even notice they released an 11th episode. If that contributed to the show getting cancelled, that should be a sign that this post-credits memery has to end. Something should end after they say it's over once.
I watched the first 2 episodes and dropped it to tell the algorithm I didn't like it
Stop fricking hiring actors that don't look like the characters they're supposed to be portraying
People who want adaptations are moronic. There's no reason to want an adaptation of something if you've already experienced and enjoyed the original medium. The exception to this is theatre.
>sure, it's not anything like the original and the actors don't match the characters at all, but you wouldn't actually like it if it was faithful either!
Where does this shill cope come from? How about you try making a faithful adaptation first and THEN see if the fans are still not happy, instead of going straight for the garbage?
> How about you try making a faithful adaptation first >said about any adaptation
Name 1 adaptation you're happy with where you read/saw the source material BEFORE seeing the movie or knew it was being adapted.
>A Clockwork Orange
the end is different in the book.
In the book Alex ends up mellowing and normying himself because he was growing up, so less hormonal.
in the film he resumed being a violent subhuman again.

Depends on what version of the book you read.
Some editions have the last chapter, others got rid of it.
I believe American editors didn't like the ending and convinced the Burgess to drop the last chapter in the US.
Why wouldn't I have read it? Its a popular book.
The intro to the one I read talked about the film and its choice about adapting the ending, which I didn't even know existed at the time.
If the godawful Lock & Key adaptation can get three seasons (the comic is instead really good) then Sandman has no excuse since the source matrial is great. Maybe people are just watching the show "slowly" because it's boring and they're not exited for the next episode.
Like someone said above. I loved the Watchmen comic and really enjoyed the movie despite expecting to hate it. I have problems with it, but I think it's almost as good of an adaptation as you could get.
it was schlock and Netflix has been known to kill even 100% kinos.
Don't frickin remind me. This was probably the best show Netflix's produced. It genuinelly had the soul of the original movie
This is actually a good thing.
Learn from your mistakes.
Next time they can make a disclaimer
at the beginning of the show to instruct
the viewer how to watch so that way
they can make more seasons.
Live and learn.
This is frightening because I can see it happening at this point.

As someone who reads 1-2 books per week I hate physical book gays so fricking much it's truly unreal
I think there are about 10-30 books total that I prefer having a physical version of just in case the entire planet technology gets solar flared into oblivion but overall physical books are just a fricking meme.
It's way worse for reading compared to a decent eInk device and takes a frick ton of space.
Pretty much. Sure, in case of some global blackout from sun flare that will wipe out everything from electronic devices, you will loose all your books. But at that point you will have bigger problems on your hands. In any other case when you can somehow generate electricity, storing a whole libraries worth of books on a single device is way better. Like, imagine dealing with thousands of physical books in your room. The weight alone would be in many hundreds of kilograms, if not tons.
well, manga is shit as american comics these days >pirates manga -> long arc -> fightings gods manga >ninja manga -> long arc -> fightings gods manga >love story manga -> long arc -> fightings gods manga >comedy manga -> long arc -> fightings gods manga >erotic manga -> long arc -> fightings gods manga >hospital manga -> long arc -> fightings gods manga

they won't because western fans are cheap homosexuals while their own countryman and the bugs spend big bucks on it
they will, have and will continue to buckle to china
Japan had a healthy domestic market leading up to 2010 which allowed them to appeal to themselves and not international markets.
Korean marketers have explained that Korea had no domestic wealth which forced them to adapt to international markets. Hence Kpop including a lot of western designs, shows and movies made for international audiences and so on.
Japan currently has a stagnant economy and it's possible they will try to appeal to international markets. Hopefully they understand manga needs to stay pure and Japanese.
they just have to look at comic books to understand they shouldn't listening to amerifat at all.
I follow comic book commentators just to laugh at the shit forced preachy writting.

Because it was cool, and you didnt have people giving their manifesto or using Marvel and DC as a spring board for their careers.
I avoided all the political controversy recent comics generate and i still hate the repackaged "heroes" the big two churn out. Because theyre not heroes theyre buttholes.
X-Men especially made me stop and wonder if the sentinels had the right of it all along.
At that moment i had to stop reading.
Both my sisters watched it, one liked it and one did not by the end. I started it and checked out 5 minutes in. They were going into a lot of weird stuff with no setup. I will watch it someday, but I'm guessing a lot of people like me didn't get hooked instantly.
If they want the black nerd culture they're going to have to pay the Japs to make more Naruto and Dragon Ball movies for specifically the American markets.
Gaiman's track record really proves the fact that most people hate woke nonsense. People love his books and they have a huge following, even today. But you take those books a decade later and make them into TV shows with huge budgets and big name stars and figure they'll be a slam dunk ... and they fail. And the only thing that changed was the leftist politics getting shoehorned in.
I was going to shit on Kaya's actress choice but in this picture they are almost one to one aside the skin tone and hair, they could fix one of those with a wig.
Kek, imagine shopping your property around for almost 3 decades, finally finding a home for it, but compromising all your artistic principles in the process and then it all rolls over and dies of wokeness in one season.
Shouldve genderswapped more characters and made them gayer, then it wouldve worked. And why not Sandwahhman instead, you bigot Gaiman.
Are you fricking daft mate? This sets a terrifying precedent. Netflix gave the show the axe specifically because people weren't binging it. This tells us that the only thing that matters to them is if people are chugging it down like wieners at a gay bathhouse, regardless if a show is good or not
I cannot put my finger on it but the guy riding in the car with the black lady and him at the diner dicking around for what felt like for-fricking-ever, Christ I bounced off that shit hard. It just felt like a sloggggg after awhile.
>letting episodes sink in
are you sure they weren't reluctantly choosing to continue because netflix had frick all else and they might as well watch another?
>I follow comic book commentators just to laugh at the shit forced preachy writting.

It's so pathetic, it's hillarious.
The comic book industry is already confirmed dead and there's absolutely no revival that could ever save it.
the majority of comic book authors don't sell nearly enough so it's a part time gig. This is also an issue because they can't afford to even fly to conventions which are becoming increasingly dominated by anime and manga. >Why don't they make new heroes, why do they make iron man a black girl, and Spiderman black etc
batman dominates with 80% of all sales while everything else just dies off after 1 issue.
This is why I laugh when I hear about someone complaining about a character that literally nobody knows about, being killed off in a marvel movie as a cheap gag, when they were totally the awesomest most badass person in history or something. not realizing that the characters name was worth less than a penny
When an industry fails to appeal to new generations, it's going to die. With comic books, the only people buying them are 40 year old white men. Kids in elementary school know Naruto, Goku and demon Slayer, none of them know who the flash is. And good fricking riddence, super hero comics had no story telling, no plot, no ending, no character. It's an intellectual property that gets passed off to different artists. These transient names are antithetical to art and writing.
Even the most shameless soft core porn manga about a kid having a Harem in middle school has more thought, plot and excitement than any comic book written in the last 20? 30 years?
Maybe because they are authentic, mangas are written by a single guy who had a new idea and went with it.
Comic books are written by committee, using a 79 year old IP, drawn by a contract artist, forcing a character to tell a relevant message when they were originally made before segregation was abolished.
So anytime someone says shit like "they weren't accurate to the comic book" you can kindly tell them to frick off.
Well. A friend of mine just made a boys love graphic novel with a manga influenced artist at an indie publisher. Dunno how the sales of, but it certainly is more appealing to the anime con audience than just making Superman and Robin gay all of a sudden. That seems like a cheap gimmick. At least this is an original comic that stands on its own just like any BL anime or manga.
Even I can't be bothered with Marvel or DC these days. I'm sticking to back issues and old trades of older stories I missed or filling in gaps of issues in series I liked.

Indie is the way to go.
A story in a book is a good story. A franchise that could fill a landfill is just merchandise.
They've always had famines, they're so far north and so far from the Mediterranean that they don't have enough arable land for enough of the year to be independent. Ukraine was always their breadbasket.
within 2 years netflix is going to go the way of standard cable tv networks. a lot of networks dropped all their good shows and ended up turning their entire network into reality tv type of trash because its very cheap, easy, and quick to make, and its all profit
First 3 or so episodes were pretty good. Even black death wasn't so bad. Then Patton Oswalt crow showed up and everything went to shit. And it just kept getting more and more pozzed. By the end there was so much gay shit and trannies and bmwf and shitty black "actors". Holy frick I've never seen a show nosedive so hard and fast.
Yeah, the troony was from the comic, but the whole blackification of half the people is just so weird.
Especially if you’ve read the comic and you know that they’re almost all white.
didnt it cost a shitload to produce? why would they bother when they get just shit out another goblina teen drama that will get more viewers for 1/10th the budget
Kek isn't gaymen the guy that tweeted if your adaption isn't faithful to the original no should watch it. Then got mad that some reminded him of that and bragged that sandman was number and THEN begged people to watch it.
Fricking clown.
Is it really cancelled? Best news I heard this month if it's true. Anything that disses my girl Death like this show did deserves worse than cancellation, they should fricking scrub this abomination from humanity's collective memory.
But I'll settle for the gainful unemployment and monetary loss of all parties involved, including Neil Cuckman. Any author worth his creation would've fought for his characters, specially the one he knows is the most beloved in his work, to be accurately, faithfully portrayed.
>Any author worth his creation would've fought for his characters
Things that basically never happen with any movie adaptation, especially Hollywood ones.
>Watch episode >see all that homosexuality and Black folks >stop and sigh >wait a couple of days to keep watching it because you like the comics so want to get over it thinking it's gonna go better (they won't)
This is what happend
I thought the complaint about Netflix was people watched shit too quickly and marathoning has turned out to be a bad thing.
This is a complaint of reasonable people. Sandman appears to not have this problem, and Netfux doesn't like it.
They can't pumpout goyslop fast enough for today's mindless binge watchers. Netflix is 98% goyslop for the masses
Can you try that again with less buzzwords, oh enlightened fa/tv/irgin
It is bad from a community and viewer interfacing with the media properly view, but for Netflix as a company binging is good and desired.
>for Netflix as a company binging is good and desired.
it probably isn't even good for Netflix, but they think it is.
I'm surprised they did it that way. You'd think having a weekly episodic release would be more profitable because people would have to stay subscribed longer to finish a series.
This confirms how modern streaming is dictated by consoomers
It's just Gaiman coping you fool, they wouldnt cancel it if it was successful.
it's called cope you dumb nig
Not really. If 1 million people watch something over a weekend or over two months the viewing figures will still be the same.
Normal TV presumably has a few months grace before renewals are confirmed and filming restarts so why would Netflix be different? They aren't obligated to renew stuff after a week.
That and Gaiman is just sad that his probably long dreamed screen adaptation wasn't liked very much.
It's probably a similar situation to King, the writer has a totally different sensibility of what the story is from a producer or director, and probably has no business trying to decide what should be on screens. Gaiman has just been much more protective of his brand, so waiting until Netflix gave him a carte blanche was a bit of a monkey's paw.
And simply what works in a comic, doesn't work on screen.
You can get away with a lot more abbreviated storytelling or wacky concepts in a comic than you can in a TV series.
Nah it just confirms it underperformed and Gaiman is a coping gay.
Netflix has cancelled more successful and cheaper shows than Sandman. They fricked up with the diversity and they should accept it.

Like, her skin was aggressively white. Shr wasnt even caucasian she was a fricking "White" woman. They literally went out of their way to wienerslap fans with that casting choice.

Tried to watch this show and it was just fricking stupid. Maybe if I was a homosexual I'd be into it, but the show literally had no appeal.
They utterly fail to capture the atmosphere of the comics, and Gaiman’s writing isn’t strong or consistent enough to carry the story without it.
There is a lot of lgbt in the comics, but it was not enough for netflix, they wanted a freakshow.
There shouldn't be any LGBT period.

the problem is
Gaiman's only good story and adaptation. Everything else he made is trash.
coraline was mostly henry sellick working his magic
This. Just like Nightmare Before Christmas, it's his touch that made those films special
Looking back this might have been the real answer all along
Shit was just boring, both me and my normie girlfriend dropped it after 3 episodes.
I cannot put my finger on it but the guy riding in the car with the black lady and him at the diner dicking around for what felt like for-fricking-ever, Christ I bounced off that shit hard. It just felt like a sloggggg after awhile.
Also ruining John Fricking Constantine soured me.
>letting episodes sink in
are you sure they weren't reluctantly choosing to continue because netflix had frick all else and they might as well watch another?
Another single season shitshow while Mindhunter remains unfinished
tbf second season was pretty bad
I think I have the perfect reaction image for Mr Gaiman

you unironically need to have a nice day

Whats cringe about it you racist piece of shit?
The comic book industry is already confirmed dead and there's absolutely no revival that could ever save it.
the majority of comic book authors don't sell nearly enough so it's a part time gig. This is also an issue because they can't afford to even fly to conventions which are becoming increasingly dominated by anime and manga.
>Why don't they make new heroes, why do they make iron man a black girl, and Spiderman black etc
batman dominates with 80% of all sales while everything else just dies off after 1 issue.
This is why I laugh when I hear about someone complaining about a character that literally nobody knows about, being killed off in a marvel movie as a cheap gag, when they were totally the awesomest most badass person in history or something. not realizing that the characters name was worth less than a penny
When an industry fails to appeal to new generations, it's going to die. With comic books, the only people buying them are 40 year old white men. Kids in elementary school know Naruto, Goku and demon Slayer, none of them know who the flash is. And good fricking riddence, super hero comics had no story telling, no plot, no ending, no character. It's an intellectual property that gets passed off to different artists. These transient names are antithetical to art and writing.
Even the most shameless soft core porn manga about a kid having a Harem in middle school has more thought, plot and excitement than any comic book written in the last 20? 30 years?
Maybe because they are authentic, mangas are written by a single guy who had a new idea and went with it.
Comic books are written by committee, using a 79 year old IP, drawn by a contract artist, forcing a character to tell a relevant message when they were originally made before segregation was abolished.
So anytime someone says shit like "they weren't accurate to the comic book" you can kindly tell them to frick off.
Well. A friend of mine just made a boys love graphic novel with a manga influenced artist at an indie publisher. Dunno how the sales of, but it certainly is more appealing to the anime con audience than just making Superman and Robin gay all of a sudden. That seems like a cheap gimmick. At least this is an original comic that stands on its own just like any BL anime or manga.
Even I can't be bothered with Marvel or DC these days. I'm sticking to back issues and old trades of older stories I missed or filling in gaps of issues in series I liked.
Indie is the way to go.
A story in a book is a good story. A franchise that could fill a landfill is just merchandise.
Russia is frickhuge how are they not food independent? Or is he having a laugh and mocking Americans?
They were until they gave up Ukraine
They've always had famines, they're so far north and so far from the Mediterranean that they don't have enough arable land for enough of the year to be independent. Ukraine was always their breadbasket.
It's just another "see, Russians having it way worse, so eat bugs" piece of propaganda.
I’m glad Gayman just keeps making himself look more and more pathetic.
Brienne is not a good actress, I've said it. She smugs through everything that isn't GoT.
Someone message or tweet gayman this with a message about how he fricked up his lifes work for nothing kek. (I already did)

capeshit fatigue.
unironically right, only comics worth your time are self contained
t. comic book autist
manga is easy to read online, comics just look like garbage. That's how you hook the new gen of fans by having a good digital appearance
Anon gay here! Watched it.. it's a bit of a mixed bag. Some episodes are genuinely great. But most of it was average.
Binge watching to get a season 2? At this time of year, in this day and age, across the country, localized entirely for your cheap Netflix show!?
within 2 years netflix is going to go the way of standard cable tv networks. a lot of networks dropped all their good shows and ended up turning their entire network into reality tv type of trash because its very cheap, easy, and quick to make, and its all profit
Maybe they shouldnt have filled with Black folk, gays, and gay Black folk
Never bothered to watch Sandman: the Mis-Casting. Laugh that it was "cancelled".
First 3 or so episodes were pretty good. Even black death wasn't so bad. Then Patton Oswalt crow showed up and everything went to shit. And it just kept getting more and more pozzed. By the end there was so much gay shit and trannies and bmwf and shitty black "actors". Holy frick I've never seen a show nosedive so hard and fast.
Yeah, the troony was from the comic, but the whole blackification of half the people is just so weird.
Especially if you’ve read the comic and you know that they’re almost all white.
I would eat ze bugs for my fatherland, but never for globohomo.
>why are there more people interested on anime and manga than our brand new chinese superman being in a gay relationship with a native american OC
>chinese superman being in a gay relationship with a native american OC
Oda's art is grotesque at this point. How the frick are people still reading?
i used to feel so but his shit art manages to beat the comics in current year
didnt it cost a shitload to produce? why would they bother when they get just shit out another goblina teen drama that will get more viewers for 1/10th the budget
Kek isn't gaymen the guy that tweeted if your adaption isn't faithful to the original no should watch it. Then got mad that some reminded him of that and bragged that sandman was number and THEN begged people to watch it.
Fricking clown.
Is it really cancelled? Best news I heard this month if it's true. Anything that disses my girl Death like this show did deserves worse than cancellation, they should fricking scrub this abomination from humanity's collective memory.
But I'll settle for the gainful unemployment and monetary loss of all parties involved, including Neil Cuckman. Any author worth his creation would've fought for his characters, specially the one he knows is the most beloved in his work, to be accurately, faithfully portrayed.
I swear all I need now is Henry Cavill exiting Netflitcher and then its inevitable cancellation and I'll die a happy man
>Any author worth his creation would've fought for his characters
Things that basically never happen with any movie adaptation, especially Hollywood ones.
>watched it wrong
oh.....was I supposed to hoot and hollar everytime a black was shoehorned in and just accept all the other aesthetic changes as well????
>Watch episode
>see all that homosexuality and Black folks
>stop and sigh
>wait a couple of days to keep watching it because you like the comics so want to get over it thinking it's gonna go better (they won't)
This is what happend
I watched it with the tv off. Was that the wrong way?
