Netflix Show?
My ears may have just been all barmy (lol) but I heard talk of Torment going to the TV with an all new Netflix series. Is this true and if so when is it coming?

This isn't even close to a reality. It was brought up in a live stream as a "what if" situation. Don't look into it any further.

I see. Probably just my undying hunger for more of Torment. Thanks for the answer :).

Planescape's story would never work on television... or any non-interactive medium, for that matter. Plus, I'm willing to bet that if it were translated to television, a lot of the weirdness of the Planescape setting would be lost simply due to how ridiculous it would look.

Thank God it ain't happening.

Actually the game and this movie starring Guy Ppierce and that woman lead from the matrix trilogy were made around the same year. Movie is called Memento, and if I'm not mistaken it was one of the first big movies to do the whole "story board body tattoos" trope. Its about a brain damaged man with no short term memory. He can remember his life before the injury, but since the injury is unable to remember anything at all for more than a couple of minutes at a time. Which explains the tattoos and all the notes he writes.

It can't be called a fantasy, but it is very much like what PS:T would be if it were about a real life person.

The book probably proves that.

The avatar he is using, it is a picture of Saul Goodman :)

Saul Goodman is the lawyer from the TV series Better call Saul, which is an off-shoot of probably the best TV series ever, Breaking Bad.
