Saw the name and thought: "Can it be?"

Went to IMDB and read the Arsene Lupin blurb on the poster and started rejoicing...harking back to late 70's TV ( I think...?)

Watched the trailer and thought: "Ag my goeie fok tog!!"

I met Georges Descrières at a family dinner many years ago before his death in 2013, here in South Africa. He was a delightful person - humble, interesting and very classy.

I think I'll pass on this new version of the 70s classic.

Lupin has been around since the 70s in a ton of different adaptations including the Studio Ghibli film and a decent 3d animated movie that recently came out. I'm excited for this show.

The manga is as old as the 60s. It was created by Monkey Punch,

Monkey Punch - Wikipedia

he past away last year. A curious quote,

www.nytimes.com

Monkey Punch, Cartoonist Who Created Larcenous Lupin III, Dies at 81 (Published 2019)

Born Kazuhiko Kato in Japan, he invented a manga character that has found fans worldwide and inspired film and television adaptations.
www.nytimes.com www.nytimes.com

“I took my inspiration for the relationship from Tom and Jerry,” Mr. Kato told The Daily Yomiuri in 2007, referring to the American cat and mouse cartoon characters. “The mouse, Lupin, is cleverer than Zenigata, who is left gnashing his teeth after failing to get his man yet again.”

I'm not doing the dubbed Lupin, will seek the French with subs option.

For evaluation purposes, of course.
