So... they're not even trying to hide the fact that they are ripping off Mass Effect's look for things?
Nnnnope.
"the city of a thousand planets"
in what fucking galaxy does this make sense?
Some background on the comic it's based on:
[QUOTE]The series focuses on the adventures of the dark-haired Valérian, a spatio-temporal agent, and his redheaded female colleague, Laureline, as they travel the universe through space and time. Valérian is a classical hero, kind-hearted, strong and brave who follows the orders of his superiors even if he feels, deep down, that it is the wrong thing to do. On the other hand, his partner Laureline combines her superior intelligence, determination and independence with sex-appeal, making her one of science fiction's most notable heroines. Influenced by classic literary science fiction, the series mixes space opera with time travel plots. Christin's scripts are noted for their humour, complexity and strongly humanist and left-wing liberal political ideas while Mézières' art is characterised by its vivid depictions of the alien worlds and species Valérian and Laureline encounter on their adventures. [B]The series was a landmark in European comics and pop culture, and influenced other media as well – traces of its concepts, storylines and designs can be found on sci-fi films such as Star Wars, The Fifth Element, and Avatar.[/B][/QUOTE]
And background on the movie:
[QUOTE]Valerian and the City of a Thousand Planets (Valérian et la Cité des mille planètes in French) is an upcoming English-language French science fiction film written and directed by Luc Besson. The film is based on the French science fiction comics series Valérian and Laureline, written by Pierre Christin and illustrated by Jean-Claude Mézières. It stars Dane DeHaan as Valérian and Cara Delevingne as Laureline. The film is scheduled for release on 21 July 2017.[1][2][/QUOTE]

Could go either way, really. I like the cast and the source material sounds interesting, but this is Luc Besson we're talking about here. If this is good, it could be the next Fifth Element, but it could also be catastrophically bad.
Why did they give Cara's suit breasts even. Like 1. Dumb for obvious reasons and 2. does that mean all female spacesuits just have a giant empty space regardless of physique?
Because breasts

So it's Wolf of Wall Street plus Lord of War?
It all seems so forced and weird.
[QUOTE=Dirty_Ape;50002305]So it's Wolf of Wall Street plus something[/QUOTE]
This seems to be a new trend for many new movies right now. Who would've thought that WoWS will be that influential, and I remember people saying that it was not worth of Scorsese's name on it.
[QUOTE=TheFilmSlacker;50002921]Meanwhile it was his best film since Goodfellas.[/QUOTE]
Since The Departed, but it's not like Scorsese ever made a bad film. He makes masterpieces and simply good films, no mediocrity there.

Did it show the ending in the movie? Like it sure seemed as though them driving through the triangle of death was kind of the main plot thing, and it seems like we already know they do it. Could be wrong obviously.

Damn franco really pulls it off, they have the same dopey eyes.

When he's not busy doing shit stoner films with Seth Rogen or doing worthless artsy-smartsy indie projects James Franco is actually a good actor.

still calling this a half-life movie. it will surely be more of a half-life movie than the actual half-life movie that we'll get at some point in the future.

I might buy it cheap on Blu-Ray if i end up liking it, but I'll probably just rent it.

It has nothing to do with Half-Life. It's first person shooter the movie if you ask me.
