What does that mean? What does some shitty CGI movie have to do with where I live?

She's a skank. Just say no to skanks.

She's actually highly humorous and self-deprecating.



No idea what puts her in the "skank" bracket for you, she's a model turning to acting, what is so wrathworthy about that?

Too skinny! Not particularly attractive. The pics you posted make her look even less attractive. Nothing wrathworthy about her, nothing that turns my head either.

Couldn't agree more. And that "oh look how modest I am, making silly faces and all" style maybe it was worth something sometime ago, but now it is just boring. Like her.

Cara seems to be able to attract more than her share of some of the hottest chicks imaginable which is certainly more than I can say for myself.

Me neither. About 15 minutes west of Chicago.  ;D

I'm not even sure how well she is known.  I have mostly heard of her because I go to a sci-fi site that has a sister site which has articles about random topics, including articles about Cara Delevingne.  It was on the sci-fi site that I read about "Valerian and the City of a Thousand Planets" and decided to watch it.

Cara used to be the girlfriend of St. Vincent / Annie Clark. She's a writer to and her sis Poppy is gorgeous too.

Donut bumpers, I should have known.

I'll bet she and St. Vincent liked to have apple pie for dessert but Fiona Apple never showed up for dinner.

And she's been the most popular and style-influencing model since Kate Moss - a Karl Lagerfeld (an international fashion designer, Dave) muse too.

And yes, I dig her eyebrows doubling as caterpillars waiting to take on a life of their own any minute.  :mrgreen:

Valerian won't win any awards, but I was entertained. Like nearly all Luc Bresson (obviously an ADS victim!) films, brimming with cute, albeit too often half-baked ideas and clamoring for a developed story. Bresson's scripts appear to be written over night on speed (and never reviewed thereafter).

But Dave, didn't we discuss how you would not use the DB term again?  8)

Alas!, she'll grow out of it. Don't they all? (insert broad male grin here)

Agreed.  I wince every now and then.

Not that I don't have stray thoughts, but I'm better at keeping them off my keyboard than I used to be.

Valerian's a Luc Besson film... "Marmite" director... I like Marmite... ;)
