I get that taking inspiration from Kurosawa films for sci fi is a time-honored tradition, but that's just ridiculously on the nose

And Battle Beyond the Stars... Instead of George Peppard, Robert Vaughn or John Saxon we get Ray Fisher What a shitty trade

"SPACE FARMERS"

"SPACE FARMERS" I was just reading the wiki entry for Hidden Fortress and found the way it listed George Lucas's influences amusing Inspirations include Kurosawa, Joseph Campbell.....oh and this good boi.

so when do Disney sue for copyright infringement? 5 minutes after it premiers? the first blatant rip off of star wars? Disney do not let others play with their toys. I'll ask this again but alter it to "How long before it's pulled by netflix for plagerisim lawsuits and copyright infringement lawsuits?" I doubt this film will last long before it's removed

Eating twinkies by the moonlight.
Making movies by the daylight.
The Pitch Perfect series really bites.
She is the one named Rebel Moon!
(I'm sorry, but I'm also not sorry.)

I doubt this film will last long before it's removed There have been countless Star Wars rip offs, inspired by, etc. Yes this is a case where it was explicitly developed as a Star Wars project but I am sure Netflixs lawyers are on top of things making sure it passes muster. And the Kurosawa thing is so old at this point no one could sue over that.

So how have the cultists gone and defended this? Honestly, there's not a lot of hype for the most part. Even the noisiest and most obnoxious of them have pretty much just stuck to retweeting articles. One or two have ventured so far as to say it will be a Star Wars killer, but that's about it.

Maybe it will do better than the Clone Wars "movie" that's really just the TV show pilot stretched out to feature length.

Yeah most Cultists seem to still be stuck with he should be doing DC ignoring that he's working on other stuff or even has had like Army of the Dead come out since his work at DC... I have seen a few of the really rabid ones call it a star wars killer... which is ... just laughable. Even if it does well it's not going to make a dent in Star Wars.

Always with the space farmers, someone make a movie about the plight of the space bank tellers.

Can’t wait to watch those space crops blowing in the wind in slow motion while a morose version of The Farmer in the Dell plays. Then he’ll needle drop She Thinks My Tractor’s Sexy when a good guy plows into a group of bad guys.

"DC need Zack more than Zack needs DC." Given how Army of the Dead — fun though it was — came and went like a fart in the wind, I don't see Rebel Moon getting him out from under the shadow of his DC work.

I'll subscribe to Netflix for one month if he has an action scene backed by a butt rock cover of this: Kinda like this, but with a budget:
