"All this he saw, for one moment breathless and intense, vivid on the morning sky; and still, as he looked, he lived; and still, as he lived, he wondered."

Upcoming tv

I’m behind with… well, pretty much everything when it comes to tv series, but here are more things to be behind in watching, this summer. Aside from new seasons of tv shows I’m really behind with (House of Cards, Orphan Black) and things I was up to date and I’m following (Dark Matter, Preacher), here’s what’s new:

The Mist
premieres on June 22

It’s a high season for all Stephen King’s fans (I should know: I live with one): this promises to be another story of what isolation does to America’s countryside small towns (Jerico, anybody?).

premieres on July 24

Death Note
premiers on August 25

Not a series but a Netflix movie. Still, it’s something to look out for: the manga was era-defining and it was about time it was given the credit it’s due.

Ducktales
premier date to be announced

Hell yes! I’ve been waiting for this, and trembling and hoping, and it looks… well, you can either like or hate the style of the drawing but it’s a drawing and it does have style, so hurray!

Also, I’d like to catch back with Killjoys.

What the fuck did I just watch?

Yoshitaka Amano‘s Angel’s Egg, it’s the simple answer: a 1985 animated movie directed by Mamoru Oshii (Ghost in the Shell). Following Amano’s exhibition here in Italy and the movie’s anniversary, it had been re-released in theatres but I had missed, I was curious, so I
