it was advertised like it's some huge property in the vein of harry potter that everyone has been waiting for; but no one knew what the hell this was. the two leads have no charisma and there's this weird sibling relationship but they also frick (offscreen). it felt like 'from the guys who watched star wars back in '77
The movie would've been a blockbuster with a better female lead. Whats-his-face being forgettable makes him the perfect male self-insert, too bad the Chick was boring
> the Chick was boring
thanks for your input john travolta, do be late to your tunnel snaked meeting tonight
The leads seemed really young to be secret agents or whatever they were supposed to be. I remember that part being kind of interesting.
Guys who wanted to jerk off to the Rihanna scene (me)
I think they just think good visual effects will appeal to everyone on earth but stuff like avatar keeps it grounded in more universally recognized imagery like nature whereas valerian was really hard sci-fi fantasy shit
it's this the one with the giant alien girls that play some sort of space basketball?
you're thinking of space jam
Resting b***h face
Me. They made it for me and I really liked it.

wasnt made for anyone but the director who was a massive fan and convinced people that it would be as successful as avatar.
Yes it was Besson’s passion project. Aside from the two miscast leads who had no charisma or chemistry, it had decent cinematography.
Its made for fans of comic book science fiction but just because you arent one doesnt mean we dont exist, open your mind a little.
For me. Luc Besson's visuals plus Dane Dehaan = win.
Why to normalgays need every movie to be based on some super well known property? you should be glad directors are bringing more obscure hidden gems to your attention. Also plenty of people read heavy metal it isn't some literal who publication.
I watched this recently for the first time and I thought it was a fun and silly scifi romp. What's the problem?
I caught this movie on tv in a hotel room in Vienna while intermittently jacking off through half of it, don't remember much
I watched this movie twice and all I vaguely remember is some scene were a goofy star wars prequel alien wants to eat her brains.
It was made for me I love this movie. The third act is awesome, the world is amazing, it actually feels like youre caught up in this magical place. The aliens are really cool and act like actual societies with their own rules. There is no other good modern scifi to compare this to. Maybe Guardians of the Galaxy but the third act of that movie becomes generic capeshit. The movie also ends with the couple getting MARRIED which in today's day and age is unique and unseen. A couple that loves and supports each other without going over an arc to get there? Are you kidding? It makes you feel good at the end leaving you happy. Very good movie
This was a good movie. The leads should have been cast better.
>that everyone has been waiting for
well Fifth Element was absolutely a cult movie after a while. There would have been hype until people saw the cast
French comics are really popular... in France. Are you French? Do you read French comics? Then you're not the core audience. Do you know any other French comics? Didn't think so.
The greatest comic ever made is the Incal, a french comic. The best comics currently being made, in general, are french comics. The only comics on Earth made for adults that tell serious stories are French comics. Manga is literal kid shit, capeshit is capeshit, only French comics are worth reading. So I can tell you are either into Manga or dont read.
>>The greatest comic ever made is the Incal, a french comic. The best comics currently being made, in general, are french comics.
No moron. It's just that dumb superhero comic book fed Americans like you have never heard about anything else.
Explain how its a superhero comic and reveal how stupid you are rather than trying to bait me. You didnt even address anything I said, just attacked me for liking the Incal. Anything I said you would just shit on because youre so hateful.
its a europoor property, directed by a eurotrash director
they have notoriously shit taste
It's from the same era as pic related, when studios were buying up obscure old sci-fi IPs in the hopes of creating the next big hit.
main male lead is so numb, almost as bad as Taron Egerton from the Kinsman movies
i cannot fricking stand those movies, theyre way too smug
CG is the death of good film making. I hate it bros.
>characters supposed to have this dynamic (but woman younger, too)
>cast a 16 year old looking guy
I couldn't even get through 1/3
Dunno. I like weird French sci-fi. Mainly for the visuals.
movie was kino
Favorite line is mostly based on his delivery but I love when DeHaan says
>I only work with my partner
