Valerian is what Star Wars is based on. I think Besson has done a great job in making French inspired movies. The Fifth Element was excellent for its outlandish setting and unique storyline, which still holds water today. Valerian looks visually stunning! Although I like that we are getting another countries take on Science Fiction. We tend to always have America, Britain and Japan exposing theirs.
I agree with a lot of what You've written. International Fellowship IS important; personally I think it a Huge Mistake to ALLOW Sci-fi to become Mainstream - Especially merging it with the gratuitous Horror of the "Horror" genre (of Too Many Decades now) - Removes The Intrinsic Preciseness of the Uniquely Inventive Soul, that I Believe, is Uniquely required for Science Fiction. That isn't a limited or narrow-minded approach, but reflects the Fact that one should 'step' Wisely into - often unexplored 'Land' - of Elemental - forces. If you Remember Roy Natty's comment to his inventor - " You Should have made us Better".
I'm really happy you made this video. I grew up with both American and Franco-Belgian comics, and have enjoyed both immensely. So happy to see Moebius mentioned a lot. His work is really something else. Lastly, I'd recommend everyone into comics to give the Valerian and Laurelin comics a look, they're good fun.
6:52 nope. nope. nope. The publisher that had the rights to the Incal took the director to court. But he lost, simply because Giraud made the Incal and designed the look of the Fifth Element.
In fact the space opera genre did not disappear at all after the war, in novels and comics in France after the war. Apart from post-apocalyptic, philosophical or political currents, several novels have appeared in the "Rayon fantastique (fantastic department)" and then in the " Fleuve noir "(black river)", "Présence du Futur", "Ailleurs et Demain","opta" editions which have offered hundreds of space operas. Note writers like Nathalie and Charles Hennenberg, Jimmy Guieu, Stephan Wul, Michel Jeury, andré Ruellan/ Kurt Steiner, Gerard Klein, Philippe Curval, Lieutenant Kije, Andrevon / Bruschte, Philippe Curval, Michel Demuth, Francis Carsac and many others!
I remember the Fleuve noir edities and others taking up a whole bookcase in a second-hand bookstore in Antwerp. The cover illustrations alone incites one to buy them.
First, thank you for creating your own separate channel and removing the content from the other. Due to that and the fact that this video is showing massive improvements, I gladly subscribed. This is what should have been done in the beginning to have prevented those first few videos on this channel from being hit with hate. This is excellent content, and is very well delivered! Also beyond ecstatic that there's one single camera angle with this. Easier for editing, also helps keep the focus on the content. We don't need two angles for this type of production, let the content do the speaking and let the personality of the host drive it. The other hosts will fall into place soon enough I'm sure, and I look forward to seeing everyone's improvement as this channel grows. Best of luck!
As a long time hardcore Star Wars fan I'd like to see a deep dive into the 90s Star Wars novels that were recently removed from canon. Especially Mara Jade, Thrawn, Jacen and Jaina, and the Rogue Squadron.
You Forgot to talk about « snowpiercer » which comes from a french comic book too. « Éternel sunshine of the spotless mind » with jim carrey, Kate Winslet and Kirsten Dunst was also written and filmed by a french called Michel gondry
Please make more videos about franco-belgian comics. I would like to see a video of the five books on Okko. There are five cycles, the first one is "Okko: the cycle of water". This is an amazing story that lacks youtube reviews...
Mike's hair is all over in this video. Sometimes flat, than it stands up, than it's flat, who is editing this stuff? But beside that, thanks for creating your own channel now, content is getting better and I gladly subscribed plus I am actually looking forward to new content when it's my stream.
Wow you guys are putting up really good content. Especially new content. You manage to give new info, not the usual copy/paste pieces. Kudos for that. Now I kinda feel bad you are not getting the views you deserve. Having said that. Calabro mah boy. You cute, I support you. but that beard needs a trim. and that hair...

i know I am kinda off topic but do anybody know of a good site to stream new movies online?

This channel has to be my new favorite channel on UA-cam
Love your channel so much. I'm so excited for Valerian now!

Great content. Would have love to hear more about valerian and star wars similarities, but great video.
Nic Castillo Watch MatPat's film theory on the subject ;)
Mr. Touch I did, but I think is something worth repeating. Thanks for the rec tho. ;)
Nic Castillo haha a fellow subscriber ^^

Michael Hart. Theres not really anything to dive into, they were pulp light scifi with a particular franchise tied to it.

I think your fresh start is doing you well!This video was good. Deep dives are nice.

Actually awesome. Well done
Forgot the French movie The Fantastic Planet.
I'm so ready for this
Can't wait to see this
Loved the video
I have only just heard of Valerian . I heard it was pretty intense .

Sven S. What exactly is the editor supposed to do about his hair?
Why would Moebius take Luc Besson to court when he directly asked him and Jean-Claude Mézieres to WORK on the film and he paid them to do it?
Well done video
definitely line these deep dives like planet of the apes and Spider-Man costumes. It's different and sets you apart from everyone else
Awesome video
