At one point it says something along the lines of "From the people who brought you the 5th Element".Yeah, I wouldn't advertise that lol.
Why not? It's a pretty beloved film.
I'm still cautiously optimistic about this. It clearly is going to be a visual feast, but I'm still not convinced that it'll be a good movie. I hope it will be, though.

Let's hope it's good because I hated fifth element.
Really? I've never heard such hate for it before. I mean, I think Chris Tucker's character is extremely annoying and it almost ruins the film for me, but I still rather enjoy the film. His part should have been MUCH smaller.

I guess yeah Chris Tucker really kind of ruins it.
Also Gary Oldman looks silly as hell with his weird hair piece thingy.
The universe itself, I admit, seems interesting.
After watching the trailer for this again, I do like the visuals, some of them at least. But I fear it just looks like a bit too much. It just seems like too much to still have a cohesive and interesting narrative. I hope I'm wrong and it will surprise us all, and I do plan to support it because I like stuff like this and I'm sure it will look amazing on a big screen, but my hopes are not very high for it to be a great movie.
😐

Also hope it's not another John Carter. Sadly this looks like a combination of the two.

Best movie ever. He's either whispering or screaming.. no inbetween. I actually try to defend the Wachowskis' work. I'm a big fan of The Matrix Trilogy. But I do have a hard time defending Jupiter Ascending. Some nice visuals at times, but it's pretty retarded.

Yeah it was a very strange performance Eddie gave there. He's not a bad actor so I have to assume the Wachowskis have just kinda gone a little crazy.Thinking about it now..their last film I truly enjoyed was V for Vendetta.
Yeah, his bad acting there is probably due to poor direction. That was definitely not the right way to play that role.
They wrote V for Vendetta, but didn't direct it. Very good movie, though yes. They seem to be better doing subversive, rebellious stuff. Bound is a great little film. I think it was only made for $5 million and they just did it to prove they could make a movie before they were given $65 million to make The Matrix.
