The movie that was supposed to kick-start the summer  is already being considered a big disappointment. Valerian might get lucky to be the fresh, original film that people will be praying for after many uninspired sequels this summer:

 

Guardians 2

Alien 5

Pirates 5

Cars 3

Mummy 4

Transformers 5

Minions 4

Spider-man 6

Apes 3

 

If those sequels continue to feel tired and Valerian is great, I wouldn't be surprised if it becomes a big hit.

TFW Captain Underpants is your 3rd most anticipated film of the summer and most anticipated superhero movie this year, you know this summer feels weak.

I'll be incredibly happy if Valerian is as good as Guardians 2 was.

The batte for best Sci-fi world building between Valerian and Guardians Vol 2 is gonna be glorious.

 

The Last Jedi movie will probably try nothing in that department , per usual.

I loved GOTG2, but I'd put my money on Valerian.

The Star Wars world has already been built. I just want some damn character work.

Or it means you're an animation stan who will root for literally anything not live action

Since they removed the message boards, i see little use for it

[Brainbug]

The newest trailer for this is f*ing gorgeous on a big screen and especially in 3D (never thought id say that again)

They look gorgeous and they even managed to make Cara look even more gorgeous(she's pretty but not that gorgeous):

I guess I'm just biased.

I see they're going for the Tarzan strategy. Heavily relying on the V.

Other than parts of the prequels, Star Wars never felt like a "world building" franchise to me.

Not specifically related to VALERIAN (though it's mentioned a few times), but here's a nice in-depth interview with the VFX supervisor of FIFTH ELEMENT -- a lot of detail about how they did various shots and also what it's like to work with Besson.

Saw Lucy for the first time yesterday. One of the most entertaining action movies I have seen in some time.
