This week, we review the sci-fi film, "Valerian and the city of a Thousand Planets," a passion project of "The Fifth Element" director Luc Besson.

- What record does this movie hold among independent films and European films?

- What did the Geeks think about the story structure and pacing? Did the movie flow well, or were there too many distracting tangents along the way?

- With Luc Besson directing both visually vivid movies, which had better visuals, this movie or "The Fifth Element"?

- What did the Geeks think about the characters? Was there chemistry between the two leads?

- How much did the Geeks like the diversity of the alien races?

- How did this review inspire comparisons to "Rogue One," "Sleepy Hollow," the European division of Africa, Jerry Lewis, "Star Wars," "Star Trek," "Alien," and, of course, "Babylon 5"?

- This was a pick of our fallen comrade, Dave Teague (his items still remaining on the list & available for being picked). For what reasons did we guess he put this on the list?

- Was the alien market scene near the beginning helpful for world-building or overly complicated?

- And, what 1990s sci-fi epic did we roll to review sometime in the near-ish future? It's a modern classic, despite a far-fetched final resolution & a massively misguided & forgettable sequel.

Listen now for the answers to these and a thousand other questions, as we explore, "Valerian and the City of a Thousand Planets."
