clsage Posted June 24, 2011 Report Share Posted June 24, 2011 So, since I did not find anyone else having posted about this yet I thought I'd share: Looks kind of cool to me, in a "low rent, Saturday Sci Fi show" sort of way! -Carl- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

clsage Posted June 25, 2011 Author Report Share Posted June 25, 2011 Re: "The Mercury Men" -- Trailer For Upcoming Webseries More info here. Indeed! And they have what the call "digital props" on that site which are, apparently, free to download pulp-ish in universe stuff....Like the blueprint for the sidearm used, etc. Handy for gaming use! -Carl- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

clsage Posted June 25, 2011 Author Report Share Posted June 25, 2011 Re: "The Mercury Men" -- Trailer For Upcoming Webseries And if this quote does not scream pulp, I do not know what might: "....Born of our solar system's first planet, the deadly men of Mercury, made of light so dense it has become solid, can emit powerful energy blasts from their hands in the form of lightning. ...." -Carl- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ranxerox Posted June 25, 2011 Report Share Posted June 25, 2011 Re: "The Mercury Men" -- Trailer For Upcoming Webseries Nice! I will be watching this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Narratio Posted June 25, 2011 Report Share Posted June 25, 2011 Re: "The Mercury Men" -- Trailer For Upcoming Webseries Agreed, the B&W does help with the Pulp feeling... and the really cool gun of course. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ranxerox Posted August 4, 2011 Report Share Posted August 4, 2011 Re: "The Mercury Men" -- Trailer For Upcoming Webseries The first nine episodes are available on Hulu now, and with each of them lasting about about 7 minutes, together they comprise the first story of the series. It's a very well told story. Each episode is structured like the Republic movie serials with each episode ending in either cliffhanger of at a dramatic junction in the story. Even in those moments of the episodes where not much is happening, you want to go on watching because you know that something exciting is about to happen. However, while the style is impeccable the substance (like the serials that it patterns itself after) is pretty light weight. Still, its got a satisfying ending and I recommend checking it out.

Ranxerox Posted August 18, 2011 Report Share Posted August 18, 2011 Re: "The Mercury Men" -- Trailer For Upcoming Webseries I don't think Hulu is available outside the US Not sure if this helps you in Australia, but I'm pretty sure that it is also viewable on the SyFy channel's own website.
