The teaser trailer for Amazon's forthcoming TV adaptation of artist Simon Stålenhag's vision of a future where the presence of a large underground particle accelerator coincided with the arrival on the scene of an array of strange machines, Tales From the Loop, already had me hooked even before I recognised the presence of Jonathan Pryce and Rebecca Hall in the cast. Throw in Mark Romanek directing and it's fair to say that I'm interested.
Assuming that early reviews don't reveal that the striking imagery has been lavished on a supremely dumb story, this looks like one more strand in Amazon's ongoing campaign to get me to sign up to Prime Video membership so I can give them a chance to claim a chunk of my streaming service budget.
