A Series of Unfortunate Events Will End After Season 3
Lemony Snicket's A Series of Unfortunate Events will conclude after Season 3, Neil Patrick Harris has confirmed.
In an interview with TV Guide, Harris, who plays the villainous Count Olaf, revealed three seasons is all the Netflix show will be getting. "We’re three seasons all in,” Harris said.
Harris indicated the three-season run will be enough to cover all 13 of Lemony Snicket's novels, as the series won't be going past the books. This has ringed true so far with Season 1 covering the first four Baudelaire novels.
“We’ve intentionally been very truthful and factual and loyal to the books," Harris said. "We’ve added a few characters that aren’t in the books, we’ve added some songs that you probably couldn’t put into the books, but for the most part we’re sticking to the structure of what already worked."

The Marvel Horror Movies Nobody Talks About
Conventional wisdom says that the age of the Marvel Comics movie began not with Iron Man, not with Spider-Man, and not even with Blade… but with the notorious Lucasfilm box office dud Howard the Duck, way back in 1986.
But there is sometimes a difference between “conventional” wisdom and “actual” wisdom. Because although Howard the Duck was the first live-action theatrical film based on a Marvel superhero, there were several other motion pictures that predate the Howard by several years. They just didn’t go to theaters.
