I think it is fair to share that Old Guard 2 ends in a cliff hanger. The story is unfinished with work still left to be done. So this is fine if Old Guard 3 is confirmed to be produced and has a known release date, but as it stands, they may never make an Old Guard 3. The director Victoria Mahoney stated she cannot direct a third film and hopes someone else picks it up. The writer Greg Rucka stated that working on a third installment will depend on Netflix and how the second one is received.
So Netflix, this is not how you tell a story! You don't take five years to make a sequel with a cliff hanger, and then not commit to finishing the story.
I gave the first Old Guard an 8 out of 10. I cannot recommend Old Guard 2 simply because Neflix does not respect the investment viewers make into a story. And please speed up your production. Three years to get out season two of Wednesday, and an expected three years for a second season to One Piece. We are not immortal!

I tried to watch "Snow White" from the perspective of a child. "Snow White" is, after all, meant for children. With those expectations, I loved "Snow White". I did see the original 1937 animated "Snow White" when I was a kid. I don't believe I viewed it again since then. So, it has been over 50 years since I saw the original, and I don't fully remember all the plot details. This new live action "Snow White", I believe, is better than the original. Animation was the only technology available to tell such a fantasy story in 1937. With today's CGI, amazing visualization can be mixed with live action in a way that is incredible.
I think they did a great job in the new "Snow White" with the scene where Snow White meets all the animals of the forest. Though I don't have the original side by side to compare, the new CGI scene triggered my memories of the original movie and it evoked fond emotions from my childhood. I loved the music of the new "Snow White". The song "Good Things Grow" is beautiful and conveys the message of the movie. We want to have a world where goodness can thrive, and we what to have the courage to make such a world. I thought Rachel Zegler should get special mention. She has a lovely voice. The "Whistle While You Work" number showed Snow White as a positive and confident influence on the dwarfs.

Do not judge "The Outpost" by the first half of season one. It takes a bit for the story to get going. If you watch all the way to the end of season four, you will be rewarded with an epic story that connects an every unfolding fantasy world and the people in it.
The Outpost has good heroes that care about each other. The Outpost is family friendly so does not have gory violence and explicit sex. I personally prefer family friendly fantasy stories. If writers have to resort to gory violence and explicit sex to tell a story, then are they really good writers? Good writers create believable characters you care about, and "The Outpost" writers do that in spades. Thank you for making a world I loved escaping into and rooting for the good heroes.
