destined to be trending topics in 2018
note that the release dates of some of

happen know I know they don’t
yeah and it’s Marvel so everything is
always very secretive number 10 lost in
space you are watching the unfolding of
one of history’s great adventures
spurred on by the cold war science
rivalry the race to the moon made
outerspace a hot topic in 60s TV from
the Jetsons to Star Trek lost in space
taking its inspiration from the 1812
novel Swiss Family Robinson was another
cult classic it followed the adventures
of a family whose spaceship is sabotage

crystalline power source number 9
Jessica Jones season 2 I’d rather call
you crazy than admit that I can lift
this car or that I can melt your insides
with my laser eyes in 2015 Netflix
released Jessica Jones thrilling fans
and new viewers alike based on the
Marvel Comics character this Netflix
original character has far more to offer
than popcorn thrills
Krysten Ritter portrays a retired
superhero who opens a detective agency
and tracks down criminals in New York
City this series is quite dark both in
its visual palette and plot wise you do
anything to protect her
it’s a cinematic experience that you can
enjoy without shelling out big bucks at
a movie theater season one has proven a
female superhero can succeed on the
small screen and we’re sure season two
will continue that trend I can’t wait to
get them on a stand number eight a
futile and stupid gesture based on Josh
carps 2006 non-fiction book this movie
adaptation will surely be full of
sophomoric humor along with some drama
if you’re at all familiar with National
Lampoon magazine and you know just what
we’re talking about a futile and stupid
gesture is based on co-founder Doug
Kenney a charismatic and trailblazing
writer who will be played by Saturday
Night Live alum Will Forte it is
absolutely for the show I can’t really
say why we’re doing it for the show but
it figures in there somewhere
speaking of SNL many of their iconic
cast members began their careers at
National Lampoon so it’ll be interesting
to see Joel Mikhail’s interpretation of
Chevy Chase and John gemberling steak on
John Belushi doesn’t well it should with
it’s all-star cast this one should be
absolutely hilarious and full of r-rated
humour this is crazy this is crazy
it’s crazy number seven outlaw King if
you enjoy gritty films like start-up or
hell or high water
then this David McKenzie film should be
on your radar the Scottish director is
teaming up with Netflix for a historical
drama about 14th century bad boy Robert
the Bruce otherwise known as well the
outlaw King the scourge of the English
army and the father of Scottish
independence with Chris Pine in the
leading role you can expect a list star
power to compliment Mackenzie’s
hard-edged style of filmmaking his
movies feature tough guys with access to
grind and for this one there will be
blood oh yes there will be epic battles
and epic production design number six
Kingdom you know and we know it too
zombies are taken over the world
for this Korean series Netflix enlisted
Kim Seung hun to direct he’s a huge
director in Korea with 2016 s the tunnel
showcasing what he can bring to the
table for this show he’s teaming up with
a claimed Korean writer Kim yoon-hee
with its medieval chilsen period setting
Kingdom should be the beneficiary of
heavy production support from Netflix
for cool design and effects with the
historical zombie narrative we can
expect multiple insane episodes most of
all though it’s a good sign that Netflix
is willing to diversify themselves with
another kdrama number 5 the Umbrella
Academy in 2007 Dark Horse Comics
released a brand new comic book series
one that fascinated readers with its
alternate history premise here’s what
you need to know John F Kennedy was
never assassinated and women give birth
to superhero babies much like the Virgin
Mary gave birth without technically
being pregnant so yeah the Umbrella
Academy is looking back in time and
thinking ahead
this Netflix original will feature Ellen
page’s Vanya Hargreaves also known as
the white violin and we’re still waiting
for more deets just like everybody else
if you haven’t read the original comics
then now is the time to sign up for the
Umbrella Academy number for Chris Rock
stand-up special whereas some
high-profile comics are pining for
another big hit others are preparing for
major Netflix success Chris Rock a
Saturday Night Live veteran and
pop-culture Renaissance man recently
signed on the dotted line for two
specials each worth 20 million dollars
yep you heard that right it’s been
nearly a decade since Rock’s last
special killed the messenger and if you
know his comedic style then you know
that touchy societal topics are fair
game with this Netflix original we can
expect even more future classic Chris
Rock bits and a routine that will be
cutting-edge and perfected for the
digital age number three mute featuring
dashing Swedish actor Alexander
Skarsgard you know Pennywise his brother
as a mute bartender searching for his
missing love this upcoming
science-fiction flick is BAE
in futuristic berlin director Duncan
Jones is behind this Netflix original
the same man behind moon source code and
Warcraft I feel restored oh and he’s
also David Bowie’s son so just imagine
the wild world he’ll build from mute a
Netflix original that will also feature
the always reliable Paul Rudd as well as
Justin Theroux from HBO’s the leftovers
this movie has been described by Jones
as a quote spiritual sequel to moon yeah
you know I’m just thinking about Hawaii
maybe Mexico Aloha number two The Ballad
of Buster Scruggs I killed the wrong man
as to which why I’m here
believe it or not but James Franco is
working on another project okay okay yet
the Ballad of Buster Scruggs isn’t just
another arthouse indie it’s a Netflix
original from the Coen brothers yep this
is actually happening with this Western
anthology Netflix takes another giant
leap forward and James Franco will
reunite with his co-star from HBO’s The
Deuce Zoe Kazan expect zany comedy
cinematic virtuosity and most likely
something beautifully bizarre go – no
dad this will be unlike any other
Netflix series and that’s because it’s a
Coen Brothers production a true Netflix
original you said it mom nobody did
Jesus before we unveil our number one
pick here are some honorable mentions
[Music]
number one maniac if the Coen brothers
take on black comedy doesn’t tickle your
fancy
and maybe this Cary Fukunaga series will
do the trick do me a favor meeting he’s
known for directing true detective
episodes along with the acclaimed 2015
film beasts of no nation for this
Netflix original Fukunaga turns to
fantastical dark comedy and has to
modern humor icons to rely on with Jonah
Hill and Emma Stone playing patients at
a psychiatric institution who inhabit
elaborate visionary worlds of their own
well Jules the funny thing about my back
is is that it’s located on my cock
based on a Norwegian series from 2014
