Great news

[bunchofkeys]

I do hope they go back to the standard like in the first season.
The second season was a bit "meh" in comparison.

Just spotted this and set a reminder, realy liked the previous seasons.

There’s a new trailer out for it.

Wasn’t as keen on s2 as s1 but this looks good:

First episode is up on YouTube.

Really enjoyed it. Like a dark Wall-E. Thought it was good.

4 episodes in. Brilliant. Proper tour de force. Superb mix of high concept Sci-fi and humour - mini zombies was great.

Just binged the lot
fk me there is some dark st in there, more so than the previous series

[Cotty]

I think out of all three volumes Suits is my favorite

[pquinn]

Dipped into a few of the new ones.

Mini Dead is fun. Liked the Popemobile bit.
Three Robots are still funny.
Kill Team Kill not too bad. Owes a bit to The Dark Tower's Shardik.
In Vaulted Halls Entombed, nice bit of horror.
Swarm is interesting but not as strong as it could be.

I thought swarm relied to much on the reveal. Needed a stronger ending. Still liked it a lot though.

Loved the ending of mini dead.

Mini zombies was fun but my stand out was Jibaro, the last one with the deaf knight.
It looked absolutely stunning.

I'd be happy with a series of Three Robots

Just watched that one. Incredible animation and 'camera' work. Beautiful thing to watch.

Had the feel of a folk tale.

I felt that season two was a bit weak, in comparison to the first. Glad to see that season three is much better.
Only just finished watching the Swarm.
Loved Mini Zombie and the one with the cyborg bear, "this setting which says fk off", proper lol.

[BadOrangePete]

Binged them tonight, Great stuff! The one with the two astronauts and the last one with the Siren were my faves.

Amazing really, why they can't make longer films like this, but i guess niche.

[pidsy]

Hammered the lot out last night.

I thought it was a strong season. I can’t single any out particularly for being weak. I enjoyed all of them although I like it when they’re sub 10 mins.

As said, Jibaro was beautiful. Captivating. I find it hard to believe that it was fully animated! There must’ve been some serious motion capture involved in that.

Swarm was also one that stuck out - I’m not as interested in the stories, But the animation itself was very impressive.

Definitely enjoyed the mini zombies - never seen that tilt shift style of animation before.

Also liked Masons rats - good fun.

I’d happily watch them all again.

With Jibaro, it's like he handed over the performance to a Ballet and said here's the broad story - you fill in the rest. The way the soldiers part danced, part fought, was inspired. I've never seen anything like it before.

I'm a big fan of Tim Miller (producer and director of one of the other episodes) and his influence shows across this season.

He's got form when it comes to animated shorts. He did an amazing batman animation for thevArkham games.
