This is a normal post OOOOOOOOOOH
Quite a lot of the content is, shall we say, problematic for 2021. I'm thinking of the rampant sexism, e.g. Homeo-Whores.

Also quite a lot of the dialogue and most of the actual details of the story are quite shallow scifi shlock that I doubt can translate well to the screen without it being outright comedy. Kind of Flash Gordon camp territory at best...

Also so many other series and films have ripped off the plot and the grander themes that it risks being seen as somewhat generic.

I can't see Hollywood execs leaving the greater story or the cast of characters alone. I think they probably need to make some big changes to get a film to work.

I'll be following this with great interest!

Looks like he does a lot of work in the kind of movies that I can't stand. Superhero schlock.

Oh well.

This is a normal post I think he only made Thor Ragnarok, as far as superhero films go.
On the other hand he gave us What We Do in The Shadows, and the two spinoffs. Jojo Rabbit was also pretty good, despite Scarlett Johannsson.

This is a normal post I read that as "THE INCEL".
No idea why I would have done that.

Wait, it's not that?

Actually, reading a bit more about it, I'm getting strong Valerian vibes, and that's not a good thing.

This is a normal post It's well worth reading. Absolutely beautiful art, quite minimalist, very European, very often imitated.
The sequels, prequels, and spinoffs are also very good.

Definitely not Hard SF though. Lots of 'love conquers all' and other dei ex machina.

Do you mean Valerian and the City of a Thousand Planets? I've not seen it, but skimming over the imdb page it looks like its the 23,000,000th Incal ripoff. See also Final Space.

So the 1960’s-published Valerian ripped off The Incal, first published in 1980 did it?
