I love fantasy stuff HBO Max: this show is some white nonsense about a man who did base jumping and some other dangerous bullshit but now we must memorialize him(?) Me: ok Mad Men it is
unlabelledView post →Finished The Dark Wizard series. Gripping but unsettling — especially for those of us with no head for heights 🫣 — and remarkable how much archive footage was unearthed to tell Dean Potter’s story: a life lived right on the edge..
unlabelledView post →There's a climbing documentary series on HBO called The Dark Wizard that is So Fucking Good and I don't know why it wasn't a huge deal.
unlabelledView post →2026 marks a few milestones, one of them is the 10th Anniversary of the “Dizzy and Seymour” fan game series. v2.0 of “The Dark Wizard” has been released to mark the occasion. Rewritten from scratch, refreshed game engine, graphics, level design etc. 🥚 yolkfolk.com/games/dizzy-...
unlabelledView post →Started watching the documentary series The Dark Wizard on free solo, high liner, & BASE jumper Dean Potter. The combination of mystical experience and mental illness is very familiar. youtu.be/h7gTjnio7oQ?...
unlabelledView post →I’m not usually one to post about my thoughts on movies. But The Dark Wizard documentary series on HBO is phenomenal.
unlabelledView post →Started watching HBOs The Dark Wizard today. Three episodes in and I found him genuinely insufferable and yet I could not stop watching because I recognized the architecture of it. Not the climbing. The part where the thing that makes you extraordinary is indistinguishable from the thing that's slowly killing you and everyone around you knows it except you, or worse, you know it too and just don't care enough to stop. The result is roughly the same, people who loved you standing around with…
unlabelledView post →Dean is the better HBO Potter series. The Dark Wizard is incredible and its giving me a vicarious mood disorder.
unlabelledView post →when I click through on this e-mail from Crave on a show called "The Dark Wizard," it brings me to a page about The Nanny, and, ngl, I am kind of enjoying imagining Fran Drescher as a dark wizard.

unlabelledView post →I'm looking forward to the point in the series when we find out who the Dark Wizard and these butterfly witches really are, meaning, if there is reference to them somewhere in Tolkien's writings, or they are all OCs. I do not think he is Saruman or one of the Blue wizards. #TRoPrewatch
unlabelledView post →Every time they make a spin off to explore this lighthearted children's series, it's like, THE DARK WIZARD HAS RISEN WE ARE DOOMED THE STAKES!!!! EPIC!!!!! It's so self-serious.
unlabelledView post →✨ POV: You hate your soulmate, because she was forced to betray you. ✨ The Sahara Chronicles is my epic fantasy series that gets darker as you read each book. Arc 1 is about the royal families and their allies swearing to defeat the Dark Wizard.
unlabelledView post →Restaurants or bars that direct you to the QR code to pay?! Smart TVs that show where you are on the last five things you watched on the home screen. I've been on episode 4 of The Dark Wizard for a week and it's not my fault.
unlabelledView post →HBO’s The Dark Wizard was an amazing docu-series. What an incredible, inspiring, tragic, human life Dean Potter lived
unlabelledView post →There’s nothing quite so crushing about happening on a show called “The Dark Wizard,” and then discovering it’s about rock climbing. Wtf?!
unlabelledView post →I've been watching The Dark Wizard. I relate to the dirtbag lifestyle even though I'm not at all athletic. I appreciate the rejection of normal life milestones. The whole thing where Dean can't be married because he feels too tethered I feel it in my soul www.climbing.com/culture-clim...
unlabelledView post →Concept art basically confirming the Dark Wizard is one of the Blue Wizards but they didn't put him in blue in the show even though it would've meant nothing to general audiences so you're not exactly spoiling anything. SIGH.
unlabelledView post →I like the aesthetic, I really like Disa. I have trouble with the wizards being there already just because it seems like Gandalf would show up for the Last Alliance if he'd been in Middle Earth. (I am also not loving the Dark Wizard as Saruman being evil the whole time).
unlabelledView post →I typically avoid most articles about the show for that very reason. The main thing that did manage to pull me in was the claim that something had been confirmed regarding the identity of the Dark Wizard. I didn't know if the showrunners had said something one way or the other, so I clicked lol.
unlabelledView post →i just had an annoying thought: what if the Stranger and the Dark Wizard are both Gandalf and Saruman, but in the course of the show, they die and go back to Valinor, and then come back in the Third Age over the sea to the Grey Havens as they're supposed to. God that'd be annoying
unlabelledView post →Had seen enough climbing docs to view Alex Honnold as a likely psychopath, but the HBO series on Dean Potter (“The Dark Wizard”) makes it pretty abundantly clear that Honnold is a ruthless psychopath. Like, truly a bad person - someone w/o capacity for empathy, utterly egomaniacal, deeply malicious.
unlabelledView post →Enjoying The Dark Wizard series about Dean Potter - reminding me, at points, of M John Harrison’s Climbers. What a novel that is.
unlabelledView post →Check out The Dark Wizard on Hulu! www.hulu.com/series/cf30c... My lord this is scary, adrenaline pumping, intense and sad all at once. 😳
unlabelledView post →There's a show called The Dark Wizard and it's just some shit about a mountain climber?
unlabelledView post →In episode 25 of the DocArena Podcast, supported by Screen Ireland, Ross Whitaker catches up with directors Peter Mortimer & Nick Rosen to talk about their series The Dark Wizard. The 4th and final episode will be available to stream on HBO Max tonight! www.filmireland.net/docarena-pod...
unlabelledView post →Watching the HBO series The Dark Wizard . I’m sure I had seen him in Yosemite all those years ago. But did not realize it. It’s just a a mind fuck. I saw so many climbers and dirt baggeIt’s the Yosemite vibe. I love it
unlabelledView post →It’s an interesting companion piece to 100 Foot Wave. In that series, our protagonist survives his death drive and is living an uneasy truce with his own reckless impulses. The Dark Wizard is significantly more death-haunted, since its protagonist already went splat into a mountain 10 years ago.
unlabelledView post →The show is The Dark Wizard and I’d like to respectfully request everyone watch it so we can discuss how insane it is
unlabelledView post →HBO’s 'The Dark Wizard' revisits the life, myth, and contradictions of Dean Potter, one of climbing’s most fascinating and polarizing figures. For TIME, I wrote about the true story behind the docuseries + spoke with filmmakers Nick Rosen and Peter Mortimer. time.com/article/2026...
unlabelledView post →Thinking about his dialogue again in S02E08 last night got me back with The Fear that the Dark Wizard will turn out to be Saruman (yes, show runners can lie! They already sorta did with The Stranger!) But the concept art we saw makes me cling on to the Blue Wizard theory.
unlabelledView post →Just realized something. What if they are setting him up to fail and die by the end of the show. That while he "wins" against the Dark Wizard now, he will fail against Sauron and is killed. #lordoftherings #ringsofpower
