The next Bald Move First Run movie is Dune 2!
Shogun is hitting your Prestige feed! Shogun already has a long-time fan in A.Ron, and Jim is eagerly approaching this story for the first time. This FX show is based on the novel by James Clavell. If you are a fan of royal court based drama, think Game of Thrones, this is the next show for you.
