'The Sandman' Series on Netflix (It’s out!)

[Ironman]

Woah what happened in this episode? I’m recalling the actual story and I remember it being about people in a diner who are basically trapped there against their will by a guy in there that obtained the dream stone. With that, he starts convincing them to self mutilate and kill each other over the course of 24 hours. How did they fukk this up?

Spoiler

That all still happens they just threw extra for no reason honestly

This was much better than American gods which was also weird. This is kind of dope tbh

 

[Ironman]

Death was my favorite character in the comics and she still is so far here

 

[Wargames]

That's his ancestor. She's a canon character

I enjoyed this a lot, but I will say the tone of the show changes, somewhat jarringly, when

Spoiler

Rose

is introduced. It went from a pretty dark, supernatural first half to a more fantasy driven second half. It's not a bad thing, just a pretty abrupt change.

Yeah I almost think they could have stretched out the first half and made season 1 about morpheus getting his jewels back.

The second half is like a different show.

Chick that plays Death is fine af

For the most part they've done a great job I'm in for a season 2 if it happens but I agree with @obarth there is a tonal change but it is still following the story so far. Closest any comic to show/movies has done

Is it any good? I remember being blown away by the first few issues of the comic. Does the show cover the part where different people had some of his items and there was an....incident at a diner? That shyt blew me away.

Tonal changes are a major part of the books though. I read the trade volumes 1-10 and they’re all very unique and different from one another

[Ironman]

Oh nah I agree that's why I said it's still following the story. I didn't expect them to go that far in season 1
