I’m over the moon this week.
It’s been a bit mundane with Netflix in the last several months. Recently however, the additions of new Shaw Bros. titles to its roster have given me hope, and September is starting to look even better going by its new calendar promo.
Granted the line-up is the usual mix of many tastes, but there is definitely something for those in particular who read sites like mine. Definitely looking forward to Iron Fist: Season Two and the arrival of Marvel’s Black Panther is surely something to keep in mind.
Jeremy Saulnier’s Hold The Dark is especially one that will suit audiences later in the month and the official trailer looks every bit appealing. The biggest news in my view, is the arrival of Sato Shinsuke’s live-action adaptation of Kubo Tite’s Bleach following a stellar summer film festival rollout and Japan release from Warner Bros. Japan.
I’ve only seen my way through the anime’s Soul Society arc before falling off. Given the film’s premise, it should be enough for fans to understand the film’s premise as embodied by Sato-san in his efforts to comprise just the right elements for a two-hour duration.
If you’re looking to catch the anime, you only have maybe a week or so left seeing as Netflix is going to remove the series next month along with Naruto and InuYasha (I’m pretty fine with them removing InuYasha since they pretty much half-assed it anyway, and I was hoping they would add more episodes too.)
At any rate, if you can access another anime portal to watch Bleach, I recommend it. It’d be a nice little side dish to seeing what Sato-san has done for this magnanimous offering, which goes live on Netflix beginning September 14.
As for the soundtrack… you better believe it’s kickass!
