Came here to say exactly that - this article is bullshit. I love LD&R, but aside from it being animated there’s no similarity with HM. Some of the episodes are wildly different in theme, feel, and style. I don’t see how anyone can call it a “spiritual successor” in good faith. Hell, as a diverse collection of stories and styles, it’s hard to relate it to any one movie or show at all.
Eh, I’ve never actually sat and watched love, death and robots. But my understanding of it is it’s a non serialized episodic program often revolving around a different sci-fi or fantasy storyline from episode to episode. Spiritually it’s very in line with metal hurlant, or heavy metal in the US. But yeah unless there’s heavy involvement from either of those magazines or anyone significant from the other productions. Calling it any sort of prequel or sequel is wildly disingenuous for sure.
I’m going to date myself here I think about this movie from time to time. As a kid I really wanted to go to space and this movie showed me it was “possible” and kept me dreaming. The only shame is that it was completely overshadowed by the space shuttle Challenger disaster that occurred around it’s release.
I actually found this over the lockdowns because I did remember it and wanted my kids to see it. What I had forgotten about was the terrible robot mascot thing that they crammed into the beginning and tried to make a part of the movie for no reason.
i remember this movie. i saw it in the theater. it was terrible unless you were 8-10 years old.
a tour robot befriends a kid and sends him and his classmates to space in what was supposed to be a mock take off. such a terrible, non-plausible script
By consistently contributing to the sub only 'to save people a click' rather than contributing interesting Links of your own, I find you in violation of rules one and three.
No one disagrees that internet news articles can do better in terms of quality and content. However by only contributing what you dislike as opposed to contributing what you do like, you're coming across as entitled and disrespectful to the spirit of the community.
I give you two hours to find and post a scifi article or item for us to talk about or face a one week ban.

This is an odd perspective. They’re literally contributing by fixing what they dislike and preventing others from having to waste time. They don’t come across as entitled. They come across as helpful and respecting the time and attention spans of the community.
Ok, are we not seeing the at that title is both hyperbolic and click-bait? If it was an in depth, thoughtful article, it’d be a different thing. Is anyone surprised a for profit company is not spent g capital on a streaming program over movies, which are inarguably more profitable.
This seems a rather impressively outsized a reaction for a common push back against click-bait articles thing.
