Fringe Season 1 discussion - Blu-ray Forum

M · 06-16-2008, 12:58 PM

I'm about to watch the pilot episode and can't wait to see what is in store as it sounds like a new style of X-Files.

Had anybody else heard anything about this, it does look promising, expecially from J.J. Abrams, the creator of LOST.

How are you being able to watch the pilot??

I've sent you a PM.

Actually in the past I have received several Screeners but mainly for TV Game shows which are terrible and never make it past the screening process.

I have seen the previews for this show and it does look promising.Looks like a new version of X-files.

JonBidinger · 06-16-2008, 06:12 PM

I enjoyed it very much, cannot wait for the series. It is a Warner Bros produced series so it will probably get a Blu release. Overall the pilot was well done, even though the version I saw had temp music and some incomplete FX.

LembasBread · 06-16-2008, 06:27 PM

Nice. Looks like Anna Torv (a.k.a. Nariko from Heavenly Sword) has a prominent role on this show.

theprophecy247 · 06-16-2008, 06:43 PM

JJ always come though

M · 06-16-2008, 10:48 PM

So I have finally had time to sit down and watch the entire show.

This is an exellent start to what will no doubt be a successful and amazing show down the line, I couldn't praise it more, really.

It was exellent and deffinately has a nice new look as the next "X-Files", I'll deffinately be keeping my eye out for each episode as it airs.

The story unfolding in the first pilot episode is exellent, having not read up too much before watching it as I wanted to go into it fresh, I'm happy I did.

I would like to say more about the episode, but I wouldn't want to give away anything about it.

I can see this show on IMDB.com easily getting a 7.8 or higher.

What did you guys think who've also viewed the first episode?

Arecsa · 06-17-2008, 05:42 PM

The Pilot was very good, has a strong JJ Abram's feel to it. I hear Fox plan on having each episode run for 55 minutes, with 5 minutes of commercials, so if that's the case, with the pilot clocking in at just over 80 minutes either a good chunk is going to get cut or it'll be padded out a bit to fill 2 hours.

I'm looking forward to the rest of the season in a few months time. It'll make for a very decent Blu-ray release aswell......providing Warner can actually do it right for once.

WickyWoo · 06-17-2008, 05:45 PM

Warning- Do not post sources to obtain this or any other pilots floating around

Fox stated that there will be a 2-hour premier of "fringe". so yeah it will be the full thing.

Deffinately good news, can't wait for this show to get going!

Psychonaut · 06-17-2008, 08:06 PM

I might have to add this to my DVR list.

I did some live screening once for 4 sitcoms. They were all horrible and the provided food sucked as well so I never did it again. Only 1 of those shows saw the light of day and it died after only a couple of episodes.

Roland1919 · 07-21-2008, 06:38 PM

WOW, saw the preview of this at Batman Dark Knight and all I can say is 9.9.08 can't get here soon enough....

scweb13 · 09-09-2008, 07:58 PM

This is on tonight. Anyone else going to check it out?

Moefiz · 09-09-2008, 08:07 PM
