Claudio Carvalho, Rio de Janeiro, BrazilIn the 28th century, due to cooperation between the Earth's countries (beginning with the ASTP of 1975) and extraterrestrial peoples, the former International Space Station has been added to until its mass threatens to cause it to fall out of orbit. Relocated to deep space using a set of trustees, it becomes Alpha, a space-traveling city inhabited by millions of species from thousands of planets. A special police division is created by the "United Human Federation" (a world government formed by a federation of Earth's countries) to preserve peace through the galaxy, including happy-go-lucky Major Valerian and his partner, no-nonsense Sergeant Laureline..VALERIAN AND THE CITY OF A THOUSAND PLANETS is the new adventure film from Luc Besson, the director of The Professional, The Fifth Element and Lucy, based on the comic book series which inspired a generation of artists, writers and filmmakers.

Verrücktes
The subtitle of this film, (City of a Thousand Planets,) is an amalgam of the titles of the first two Valerian comics, "City of Shifting Waters," and "Empire of a Thousand Planets."There's a dedication before the closing credits start rolling: To my father...Fehler
Audio/visual unsynchronised
At the end when Valerian says "I want only your name on my playlist" his mouth movements don't match the dialogue.Character error
General Okto-Bar pronounces the name of the planet Mül several different ways.Continuity
In Big Market, Valerian lures the weighted metal balls onto a thug's body, who then crashes through the floor. When Valerian is chased out moments later, the hole in the floor is gone.Continuity
As they are leaving the big market planet Laureline says "Leaving Exospace in 5 seconds" when it should be Entering.Continuity
When Valerian and Laureline are talking. Laureline is not wearing a safety harness, but on the next shot,she is. Cut back to Valerian, and she isn't. They then put on the safety harness she was already wearing.Continuity
Bubble Dance - whip scene. Rihanna whips the glass and from it the lemon umbrella and the starfruit falls. In the next scene, the starfruit reappears on the glass.Continuity
When Sergeant Laureline finds Major Valerian after the chase she comes to an edge of sulfur shaft. Her toes are over the edge in the next shot she is about 10 centimeters away from the edge.Factual errors
When Valerian gets the 'Update' when they arrive at Alpha, Alex says that since leaving Earth the station has traveled almost 700 million miles (7.5AU), which, if true, would mean that in 400+ years they hadn't even reached the orbit of Saturn yet (which is 9.5AU from the sun), something that probes can do in under 10 years. A good example is Voyager 1, which in 40 years has traveled over 12 BILLION miles from Earth and is now in interstellar space.Factual errors
The station is moved away from Earth because its gravity is having an effect. The only effect it could have is a tidal effect, and this seems unlikely given its relatively small size compared to the moon. Putting it into an orbit round the moon would be an easy fix since the combined mass would be only negligibly larger. Another easy fix would be to move to a new location at the L2 or L3 Lagrange points (L2=behind the moon, L3=opposite the Earth [behind the sun]) and drop a satellite at the L3 or L4 points to retain contact with Earth. (The Lagrange points are where gravity effects cancel each other out in a 2 body system [Earth/Moon, Sun/planet, etc])Factual errors
When Alpha is initially boosted from Earth's orbit, the detachable rockets propel the station in the opposite direction of Earth. However, in order to leave orbit, it is necessary to propel the station in the same direction as it is traveling in its orbit, parallel to Earth.Factual errors
In Commander Filitt's office, the plaque in the background showing all nation flags in the United Human Federation contains at least one duplicate (in the case of Japan) and most four (in the case of USA) or more.Factual errors
In the opening scene of the movie an American Apollo and Russian Soyuz craft link up. The distance shot is of the correct two craft but the docking footage is actually from an Apollo command module looking at an Apollo lunar module.Factual errors
Planets are identified as being in a 'Constellation' followed by a three digit code. Constellations are patches of sky as viewed from Earth. They contain unrelated stars and galaxies.Having 'sectors' as in Star Trek would make much more sense.
Revealing mistakes
Valerian, Laureline, and Bubble crash into a hallway from a trash chute. In the trash are skulls. The horns on one of the skulls flop around as Valerian gets up.Trivia
There are two hundred different alien species in the movie. Luc Besson wrote a six hundred-page book describing in detail all the species. The actors had to read that book prior to filming so they could adjust their acting, depending on the species they were interacting with.
The Welcoming Captains were directors and/or writers that director Luc Besson has worked with.
The first two trailers use the song "Because" by The Beatles. It was the first time a film director obtained the rights to use a Beatles song in a movie advertisement. Permission was granted by Sir Paul McCartney.
With a final production budget of EUR197.47 million, around $210 million in United States currency, the film was officially the most expensive ever made in France, significantly exceeding the budget of the previous record holder, Asterix bei den Olympischen Spielen (2008), which cost EUR102 million ($113 million). Twenty years earlier, director Luc Besson made Das fünfte Element (1997), which was the most expensive French movie at the time, with a budget of EUR90 million ($100 million).
There are 2,734 special effects shots in this movie, compared to only 188 in Das fünfte Element (1997).
Director Luc Besson waived his own salary in order to get the film made, which was a life-long passion project of his.
When Valerian is in Big Market and a wanted notice is released, the bounty hunter that follows Valerian is at a bar named "Korben's." Korben Dallas is the name of the character Bruce Willis played in director Luc Besson's Das fünfte Element (1997).
After suffering a record loss of $135 million in the previous year, EuropaCorp had set its hopes on Valerian to turn in a much-needed profit. However, after the commercial failure of the film and a subsequent drop in company stocks of over 40%, deputy CEO Edouard de Vesinne was forced to step down from his position.
During the "Welcoming" scenes at the beginning of the movie, one alien race being greeted has a design similar to (but not identical to) the Mondoshawans from Das fünfte Element (1997), which was also directed by Luc Besson.
The film is based on the French science fiction comics series Valérian and Laureline, written by Pierre Christin and illustrated by Jean-Claude Mézières.
Director Luc Besson chose not to shoot the movie in 3-D since 3-D cameras are too heavy for his style of filming, like running behind an actor or unusual angles of filming.
The futuristic New York City in director Luc Besson's previous film, Das fünfte Element (1997), was visually inspired by "The Circles of Power," the fifteenth volume in the "Valérian and Laureline" comic series.
Director Luc Besson deliberately chose to shoot the film, which is an adaptation of a French comic, in English with English-speaking actors in order to raise its chances of a wider audience.
The film was released in 2017, the year of the "Valerian" comic's fiftieth anniversary.
At one point, Igon Siruss tells Valerian, "I will find you, and I will kill you," to which Valerian whispers, "Good luck." This is nearly identical to the iconic exchange from 96 Hours (2008), which was also written by Luc Besson.
The main storyline is loosely based on "Ambassador of the Shadows," the sixth album in the comic book series. This was also the first Valerian story to be translated in English.
The ship's computer, "Alex," reports on Alpha One details over the four hundred years since leaving Earth's orbit, in which it has traveled over 700 million miles. This puts it just before Saturn at a speed of 287mph.
The opening scene begins in 1975. This is the year "Ambassador of the Shadows" (on which the film is loosely based) was first published in French.
The Pearls of Mül were an unidentified alien humanoid species in the original comic story "Ambassador of Shadows." Unlike the creatures in the movie, their skin color was red and black in the comic.
The Mül Converter creature in the movie functions the same way in the "Ambassador of Shadows" comic story, but it has no connection to the aliens Pearls of Mül. Laureline is given the creature so she and Valerian would be able to help the Earth representative with the negotiations, by producing the differing currencies used by the aliens.
Director Luc Besson first premiered some footage of the film at the 2016 San Diego Comic-Con. The footage received a standing ovation from the crowd in Hall H.
Rutger Hauer received top billing (credited as "and Rutger Hauer" in the opening credits), despite having less than one minute of screen time. Director Luc Besson asked him to be in the film as an homage to Der Blade Runner (1982) and its director, Ridley Scott, who is a friend of Besson.
Laureline is the main narrator, as well as the character the story follows in "Ambassador of Shadows." She is the one who pilots the submarine to nab the mind-reading jellyfish, and she is the one who uses a shape-shifting alien to disguise herself to infiltrate the alien den. Valerian only shows up at the start and the end of the "Ambassador of Shadows" story, having been kidnapped along with the VIP.
The film opens with footage of the 1975 joint U.S./Soviet mission Apollo Soyuz Test Project. The mission ran from July 15, 1975 through July 24, 1975, forty-two years to the week of the opening of this film.
Before the Big Market mission, Laureline tells the commanding operative, "Nice hat," which is a subtle nod to Das fünfte Element (1997), also directed by Luc Besson, when the character Korben Dallas tells a would-be mugger the same thing.
Although director Luc Besson stated (in the Special Features of the the film's Blu-ray) that the "Big Market" sequence was written into (or added) to the "Ambassador of Shadows" story, the market can be considered taken from the "Empire of a Thousand Planets" story (where the movie's title is modified from). In the "Empire of a Thousand Planets" story, Laureline purchases an old Earth pocket watch, which sets in motion the rest of the strip's story.
Although most spaceships in most science fiction movies never display their make, the skyjet (pod) used by Valerian clearly showed the Lexus emblem on its front grill during the chase of the Pearls pod scene.
Early in the Big Market mission, Laureline waves at the Kyrian alien guard in the tower with a Vulcan salute (from Star Trek) before shooting and stunning him.
The movie featured "Alpha Station," the City of a Thousand Planets, but the station was called "Point Central" in the "Ambassador of Shadows" comic. Point Central was first created by non-human alien races (it did not start off as the ISS) and was added to, slowly over time. Additionally, the Federation in the movie was the point being negotiated in the comic story; Earth is governed by something called "the Galaxity" instead of an actual Federation of races.
Cara Delevingne worked out for several months to get in shape for her role as Laureline.
The word "mul" means "water" in Korean, and the Pearls of Mül are a semi-aquatic species.
Cara Delevingne announced on social media that filming began on January 4, 2016.
In the middle of the big space battle, a fighter painted silver and yellow flies by the camera. The fighters Anakin Skywalker uses in Star Wars: Episode I - Die dunkle Bedrohung (1999) and Star Wars: Episode III - Die Rache der Sith (2005) are painted silver and yellow. The battle draws inspiration from the big space battle in Revenge of the Sith.
After production was completed, Cara Delevingne auditioned for and became a frontrunner for the lead role in the "Lara Croft" film Tomb Raider (2018), but she lost out to Alicia Vikander.
In the comics, Laureline had red hair. In the film, she is blonde.
The song "Gangsta's Paradise" by Coolio was prominently used in the marketing campaign for this film. An orchestral version of the song can be heard in the trailer.
When Laureline is fixing Valerian's arm, the tool she uses is a "Guppie" multi tool from Columbia River Knife and Tool (CRKT).
At 1:46:08 Emperor Haban-Limai refers to 6 million lost in battle. This is also the quantity of Jewish victims of the Holocaust under Nazi rule in WWII.
