sblfilms Posted August 24, 2019 Share Posted August 24, 2019 I love that we live in a time where TV production values are pretty close to features. Even 20 years ago a Star Wars TV series would have looked way cheaper. I will tune in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe Band of Brothers, which still holds up pretty well against most war movies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AbsolutSurgen Posted August 24, 2019 Share Posted August 24, 2019 Can they really keep up those high production values over 8 episodes? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As its stated budget is $15 million to $20 million per episode (total about $120 million), I'd say "yes". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Iger is committing whatever it takes to keep the production values as close to parity with the theatrical siblings as possible. 5 hours ago, TheLeon said: What show would have even had a comparable budget 20 years ago? Maybe Band of Brothers, which still holds up pretty well against most war movies. That is probably a good example of something that got near feature film budgeting. A more typical high budget TV production from the early 00s would be something like 24, which also holds up fairly well but they also shot half the show on the same set.

AbsolutSurgen Posted August 24, 2019 Share Posted August 24, 2019 The last couple of Star Wars movies have cost somewhere between $300-$350million for a 2.5 hour movie. It will be interesting to see how Star Wars translate to $120 million for 8 hours. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The above the line cost on features have been significantly higher than that on TV series, and the below the line cost is significantly higher as well because the unions have negotiated higher rates for features vs TV. You may be surprised at how much of the difference is just from that. As the prestige of high end TV rises, we will see closer to parity between the two. This is actually another reason the studios are betting heavy on streaming right now because they can save a lot on production costs just due to the undervaluation of TV work vs feature work.

sblfilms Posted August 24, 2019 Share Posted August 24, 2019 Disney has confirmed that Disney+ shows will be released weekly. I actually prefer this for major episodic content as a I think it lends itself towards in depth community reactions in a way that releasing the whole season at once just doesn’t.

I listened to Game of Thrones podcasts and Breaking Bad podcasts but I don't listen to Mindhunter or Stranger Things podcasts. I'm actually pretty happy about this too.

ALIEN-gunner Posted September 1, 2019 Share Posted September 1, 2019 Even more a shame that each episode will be released weekly instead of all at once. Still looks to be worth subscribing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skillzdadirecta Posted September 1, 2019 Share Posted September 1, 2019 I was a little disappointed when I heard about the weekly release schedule but I guess it makes sense... keeps people from binging a particular series then dropping the subscription.

johnny Posted September 1, 2019 Share Posted September 1, 2019 I kinda prefer the week to week releases. I don’t dislike all at once though. There are so many shows I haven’t seen that I can still binge stuff. Plus us I enjoy talking about the shows week to week. With something like stranger things there’s not much discussion until you finish a season and then everybody moves on pretty quickly.
