"As is evident from the trailer, Valerian's visuals are out of this world — no pun intended. While Avatar remains the benchmark for 3D films, Valerian looks to be the first serious competitor to its throne. That's no accident, either. Besson has been working on the film for a very long time, and he even threw out the first version of his script after paying a visit to James Cameron on the set of Avatar because he felt he couldn't compete with what that film was doing. Now, a decade later, it seems his time has come.

The film features a whopping 2,355 visual effects, which according to The Hollywood Reporter is 600 more than Rogue One. And when your movie has 600 more special effects than a Star Wars film, you can bet that it's going to be a visual feast. There are countless species of aliens inhabiting the titular city and its thousand different worlds, and this diversity means you never know what type of crazy thing you'll see next in the film.

The bottom line is this: if you're going to see Valerian, see it in 3D. The film's main selling point is its ridiculous visuals, so you might as well see it in all its intended glory."

Let WBF members know if they should purchase this UHD Blu-ray title.
Like, are the colors out of this world, are the low frequencies down to single digits, ...

The reviews are all over the Sahara desert; some say the movie sucks but the colors are magical.
Others say the bass is great and the actors childish.
It varies from zero to ninety-nine.

I know that 3D was shot dead in the head here on Hollywood's boulevard, but in the rest of the world 3D has never been more alive than Valerian and the City of a Thousand Planets. It's like Avatar reincarnated, they say in some quarters of the 3D cinema industry. Must be fake news like anything else we read today from FOX news and all the rest.
But me, I don't care about FOX, I care about 3D. :b
