      Waterworld is fine. It just gets ragged on because of its insane budget and the lackluster results for said budget. But if you don’t care about that and just watch a movie, it’s a decent movie.

      The Simpsons joke where the tie in video game needs 40 quarters is still funny though.

      Like most, I totally disagree. However, it had such great potential.

      I feel the same about Valerian. The imagery was pure eye candy and then I watched it, so looking forward to a great flick, and what I got was… Valerian.

        The setting and design in Valerian is fantastic. The opening sequence really is among the best in film. Shame about the plot and main characters.
