Luc Besson’s latest:
(thanks Angélique)
Based on Les Aventures extraordinaires d’Adèle Blanc-Sec, by Jacques Tardi. It looks like a great pile o’ fun. Yeah, the subtexty, Xena-like let’s-hint-at-girl-sex sequence is cheesy but, woo hoo!, sometimes I like a bit of cheesy goodness.
looks like fun!
I think it will be. Not deep–thank god–but a blast.
I just wish the comics were available here in inexpensive editions.
“Xena-like let's-hint-at-girl-sex sequence is cheesy”
There really is no reason that this should have me doubled over laughing. Anyway, I think we should be excited for the fun.
Yep. I think the presence of girly cheese is the closest we can get to a guarantee of fun. Sort of like Las Bandidas.
Very cool. But did I miss the Xena-style girly cheese in the preview? Maybe my eyes are getting slower, but I noticed just the one ingenue.
Looks like fun for sure.
Annoyed at myself that I mostly need the subtitles tho.
I enjoyed Las Bandidas too. Those two together? Hard to miss.
It's the editing: the hint of girl-drops-clothes-our-heroine-enters thing, very Xena creditstyle…
Do I think there's any girlsex? Sadly, no.
Looks like fun I will of course wait until it comes out on DVD.

Sly, I'm not even sure it will be playing in Seattle so, yep, DVD are us.
