Thank u. It’s not DOLBYVISION. I just checked
Yes it had it - I remember watching it in HDR. Now they even removed it from the previous series. Maybe they are keeping it for when they launch a DC Streaming Service. Everyone seems to be launching a streaming service, even my Grandma.I loved the Dolby vision in previous series, I wonder why they dropped it.
Thx Cass good review, never really liked doom patrol but really enjoy this shows no holes barred approach.
Seasons 1 and 2 were actually 4K HDR when they were produced for the DC Universe service (on Netflix they were 1080p HDR) but when they shut that down and moved the content to HBOMax they only did Season 3 in 1080p SDRI loved the Dolby vision in previous series, I wonder why they dropped it.
They were? I remember saying to Cas back in season 1 that the DV looked superb, with others saying the same, I’m sure it was DVSeasons 1 and 2 were actually 4K HDR when they were produced for the DC Universe service (on Netflix they were 1080p HDR) but when they shut that down and moved the content to HBOMax they only did Season 3 in 1080p SDR
Hi all, my 10 year old has seen the trails for this and wants to watch it. It’s a 15 certificate so I’ve said no, but haven’t had chance to watch it myself and see why it’s a 15. She’s seen all the marvel films and is fine with those, and is well into Buffy the Vampire Slayer (think she sees this as a kind of a cross of the two)
Appreciate any insight into the reason for it being a 15 - is it as violent as Daredevil? Full on special cuddles? It’s really hard to find the info online and I trust you guys! Thanks?
Thanks Cas, appreciate the reply and insight! I’ll give the first episode a watch - probably end up hooked on it!It's no where near as violent as Daredevil or Punisher, but it's way more than anything Marvel (and Buffy for that matter, even the later seasons).
There's a LOT of swearing. Some really random nudity. And it is pretty brutal, particularly in that a lot of the violence is grounded rather than 'super'd'.
I would just watch Season 1 Episode 1, within a few minutes you'll be able to see for yourself.
If you want to buy yourself a little time, try her on Superman & Lois: Superman & Lois Season 1 (BBC) TV Show Review
That's pretty 'mature' too in a lot of ways, definitely at the Marvel level, but also by and large suitable (IMO) to someone who is comfortable with the entire MCU run.
Yes I watched the first episode yesterday afternoon and it’s 100% unsuitable for her! Way more violent than anything she’s ever seen, and guessing it can get even darker.Just done episode 3, yeah kinda forgot that this show really isn’t your typical DC/CW happy every after type affair.
To add to the above post regarding a 10 year old, I say for the most part it’s going depend on the child as not all 10 year olds are the same in how they process certain content.
We’ve got an 11 year boy and there’s no way we’re letting him watch this show.
He had a massive freak out when we saw Spider-Man Far From Home due to Zombie Iron Man Lol, granted that was 2 years ago but he still mentions it now and won’t watch it again so this most certainly isn’t the show for him right now.
I just love reading these reviews they are so engaging. You should publish a Sci-Fi Novel. I would be first to order it.
