And thinking about the fact most people won't even know the source material before / while watching the 'Valerian' movie, I can already see it coming.

Nice visuals, but this looks like another Jupiter Ascending. And was that Rihanna?

Yes it was unfortunately.

MemberBerry · 11-10-2016, 02:24 PM

This looks really visually similar to Guardians of the Galaxy.

and what the hell is wrong with Rihanna being in this? It looks like she's playing some sort of performer or singer, so this should be right in her wheelhouse.

The Debts · 11-10-2016, 02:26 PM

Certainly looks better than Lucy.

Rodney-2187 · 11-10-2016, 02:27 PM

I thought Jupiter Ascending was good, so comparing it to that isn't an insult as far as I'm concerned.
I'd say it's more like The Fifth Element on steroids and it's going to be absolutely outstanding!

seem so too with the mixture of puppetry and CGI

NARMAK · 11-10-2016, 02:35 PM

Thos looks visually really good but now that I've seen the trailer cause teasers are 30 secs Imo and don't show zilch. I'm a little worried for it. It looks like it has visual cues from the likes of Guardians, Fifth Element, Revenge of the Sith and John Carter alongside those general Sci fi properties but I'm not sure if this movie will hit hard enough with audiences with those two in the lead roles.

I just can't but help think about how this movie would have been if Chris Pratt and Jennifer Lawrence were in this rather than another Sci fi movie like Passengers. Or both

Yeah I was surprised they even used it as a selling point.

soarinsteven · 11-10-2016, 02:46 PM

Promising. I'm liking the visuals and tone from the trailer, and of course the use of Because is great. Not nearly enough Rihanna tho.

esteban² · 11-10-2016, 02:49 PM

This trailer has everything I liked and disliked about The Fifth Element. I have faith in the source material, less in the visuals.

Very Interesting comparison.

trainreck · 11-10-2016, 03:35 PM

Teaser looked good to me. Definitely looking forward to this one.

Mandalorian · 11-10-2016, 03:44 PM

This looks a hell of a lot better than Jupiter Ascending to me.
