I'm... cautiously optimistic? My assumption was it would be a remake, but continuing in that world could actually be really cool. Love that Warwick Davis is in it, and it looks like Val Kilmer is included at least somewhat (can't imagine it'll be a HUGE part)...

Val Kilmer was the worst pick for this movie. Steve Martin could have been a better pick.

For those curious: it's from an opera by Giuseppi Verdi

La Traviata

It's in Act 1: 'Libiamo ne' lieti calici' (Alfredo, Violetta, Chorus) (Libiamo ne' lieti calici)

The song is a brindisi, a lively song that encourages the drinking of wine or other alcoholic beverages. The duet is performed in the first act of the opera, during a late-night party at Violetta Valéry's house. It is sung by Violetta and Alfredo Germont, a young man who is in love with her. Alfredo is convinced by his friend Gastone and by Violetta to show off his voice. He begins this drinking song, later joined by Violetta and the rest of the company.
The piece is written in B-flat major, its time signature is 3/8, and the tempo is marked Allegretto, dotted quarter note.

The 3/8 time signature is why you hear (or see in your mind's eye?) a waltz going on.

Oh, and on looking up: Drakes Supermarket is in Australia !

Given the amount of influence that Valérian and Laureline comics had on the Star Wars movies, with many scenes ripped right out of them, and many other sci-fi movies, it is probably long overdue. Of course too many people may go, "oh, that's a rip off of xyz", when it is actually the other way.

They are available to read online, though not sure how black/grey market those are, so I won't directly link to its sources on Read Comic Books Online or others...

@newtboy
true romance is in my top 10 as well,and i didn't even see in the theaters.the trailers didn't grab me and the marketing was utter shit.

i saw it when i lived in miami at the time,and my roommate and i were having a party and i just happened to have HBO on at the time,and i remember seeing the opening credits:chrisitan slater,val kilmer,christopher walken,dennis hopper

and i was like...how the fuck did i not hear about this movie?
look at all these awesome actors!

so i started watching,and even as people started showing up..i couldn't stop watching.in fact half the party ended up in my living room watching true romance with me,while rest stayed out in the patio and got drunk.

yep..i know how to throw a shindig.
ya'all come over and we watch tv.
