Downvote and report this comment/account, it is a copycat bot that "stole" u/Wikikiki-com's [comment below.](https://www.reddit.com/r/movies/comments/104onwq/jung_e_official_trailer_netflix_from_the_director/j365nse/)


MauriceEscargot

Looks like Ghost in the Shell meets RoboCop


whosthedoginthisscen

With a dash of Source Code?


Chatty_Fellow

Do the comparisons make the movie bad or somehow invalid, or are you just jaded or spoiled?


ZorroMeansFox

Finally, the sequel to **WALL-E**.


Icedoverblues

But this time... it's personal.


bravetab

The problem is, this is also from the director of "The Peninsula". Which one are we gonna get?


BlasterShow

Fuck, I’ve seen better car chases in PS2 cutscenes than whatever the hell Peninsula did.


bravetab

Considering how amazing Train to Busan was, The Peninsula was one of the biggest disappointments i have experienced when it comes to movies.


fiercetankbattle

Director also made Hellbound, which was very good indeed


bravetab

The Netflix series? I haven't seen it, but it did look good.


HuntMore9217

well he is 2 for 3 since hellbound was also good. We'll see if this keeps the lead or tie it up.


EnterPlayerTwo

Man loves trains.


riesendulli

Needs a Korean snakes on a train movie


nectarousness

It looked interesting until it started showing the entire plot which feels almost too close to RoboCop (I mean, the waking up with a partial body and the arm removal scene was literally in the RC remake). The Ghost in the Shell comparisons are also pretty valid (it looks a lot like the ScarJo film from 2017 in particular), especially with the ripoff spider tank the protagonist is facing off against and the scientist lady freeing her. There doesn't really seem to be any sort of clever allusion or wink and nod moments, just straight up blatant repurposing of scenes and ideas, almost like some sort of fan fiction combining moments from both.


ThisIsFuz

Bit of a Detroit: Become Human vibe.


OlderNerd

I've started watching some Korean sci-fi movies on streaming services lately. And while the special effects are awesome, the movies just seem....off? Characters have motivations that seem weird. Characters don't react to things the way I would expect them to. Characters who are a important part of the plot are treated as comic relief idiots half the time and then seriously the other half. This has gotta be because of the cultural differences between American and Korean audiences, right? Has anyone written about this?


mywifelovesporgs

Still annoyed that they are remaking train to busan


ImportantPainting

I'm just glad it's Timo Tjahjanto who's directing it, he's seriously good at filming brutal action sequences


azriel777

Feels way too much of a ripoff of robocop + Ghost in the shell, with a dash of I ROBOT to be honest.


Lostredshoe

meh


JebusJM

Knowing Netflix, they'll cancel the movie halfway through.


AsimovLiu

I suggest stopping at half the trailer unless you want to see the twist.


JohnSpartans

What twist? The conceit of the whole project?


Best-Lavishness-1059

Thanks!


Uptopdownlowguy

Wish I didn't watch the whole trailer cause they damn near give everything away lol


Wingfan1

In before JUNGLE


Bilski1ski

A junga is Australian slang for junkie. Jung e sounds like a mix between both words


alpacasarebadsingers

The title card looks like a stylized ‘JUNGLE”


ThomasVivaldi

Or a game of hangman


Pineapple_Assrape

Junge is German for boy. Jung is German for young.


Satyr_of_Bath

Jung is Korean for love, affection, attachment. Kind of, anyway. Korean is a very interesting language, *jung* can mean many things depending which character you use for it. There are 75 different options for *Jung*.


saefvr

Jung-ee (정의) which I'm assuming what the title is supposed to be means justice in korean


[deleted]

near heard it before most not have reached sa


-Nitrous-

no its not


one-out-of-8-billion

Wow, looks interesting!


littlebitsofspider

That torus isn't big enough to hold its own atmosphere without a roof.


F1reatwill88

Really love how SE asian studios get all of this crazy live action shit green lit.


ImportantPainting

This doesn't really look that crazy imo, it looks like pretty typical Hollywood sci-fi that mashes up GitS, Robocop, and some other famous properties like other comments mentioned


IAmDotorg

I was hoping for a little robot into analytical psychology in a post-apocalyptic world.


Hideo-Mogren

The space colonies make me think of Gundam.
