Saw it yesterday and was unimpressed 5/10

Visual were good but the whole ghost angle is wack, they would have been better using aliens, acting was subpar too

That Spectral movie was good.

Glad it didn't turn out to be aliens or supernatural shyt.

Meh,

They waited to the very end to explain that it wasn't that even then I still thought of them as just that

TC, Ap
First 2 seasons is dope
I'm on the 3rd
It's a little slow but I heard it picks up midway
Its got a lot of stuff that don't make sense but its dope that they actually have to make real choices with real consequences and they don't dance around them or magically find painless solutions at the last minute

'Marco Polo' Canceled at Netflix After Two Seasons

Netflix's Marco Polo has reached the end of its road.

The streaming giant has opted to cancel the scripted drama after two seasons, The Hollywood Reporter has learned. It becomes the first Netflix original scripted series to not be renewed for a third season.

Originally developed with a straight-to-series order at Starz back in 2012, Marco Polo debuted to dismal reviews — THR chief TV critic Tim Goodman called it "a middling mess, complete with random accents, slow story and kung fu" — and little buzz.

The drama, produced by The Weinstein Co., featured a global cast that included Lorenzo Richelmy in the title role with Benedict Wong as Kublai Khan. The second season launched quietly July 1, with options on the cast set to expire at year's end. Sources tell THR that the series, across both seasons, was responsible for a $200 million loss to the streaming giant. Sources say the decision to not move forward with a third season of Marco Polo was a joint one between Netflix and TWC.

On a cliff hanger too... Ouch.
