[248] Beautiful Day Without You

I really had no idea on where to direct this article.  I have 20+ pages of backlinks waiting to be included in many subjects.  But they are just that...raw backlinks.  Worthless without an analysis.  So instead of dumping links on you I will build up on the previous article, where I basically indicate that I used to live in a sick system that I could not break out of...all in the name of love.

And then switch it to the death of Moebius, a sad news I received Saturday morning on my Android...

Moebius has died

Won't add much with the exception that he is my idol and mentor, as is the case of most science fiction artists and conceptual developers.  May he lie in Heaven with other greats such as Frank Franzetta or Jack Kirby...Let others give him reverence:

In case I had not post it before, a tumblr with some of his artwork:

He was in charge of some of the visual effects on the original Tron.  This includes the stunning Solar Glider, one of the best scenes of the original movie.

I'm just imagining how greath would that Dune production had been if the combined work of Moebius, Jodorowsky and HR Giger would have reached the theaters:

or if that Willow production had gotten his way...

Then, wishing they actually made that TV series based upon his work on L'Incal:

[201] Moebius - Sur l'etoile

Comente recientemente que he comenzado a releer textos viejos que tenia en el olvido. Tropece entre ellos con la serie de L'Incal dibujado por Moebius y escrito por Alejandro Jodorowsky. Asi que buscando clips de una version animada en preproduccion que nunca se hizo para llevar al cine la historia tropece con esta otra historia de Moebius titulada Sur L'etoile (Sobre la Estrella). No es animada, pero se basa en las imagenes de su historia. Definitivamente Moebius hace grandes composiciones futuristas...



L'Incal fue una serie francesa de 1980 - 1988 dividida en 6 libros. La version que lei recientemente fue una adaptacion que hizo DC para Estados Unidos combinada en tres tomos. Excelente historia, gran arte, excelente guion. Lo unico, es profundamente esoterico, asi que ya han sido advertidos...

Aqui el corto de preproduccion de l'Incal:

De Alejandro Jodorowsky...todo un metafisico. Sus historias y analisis del mundo son bastante particulares...sus peliculas Santa Sangre, El Topo y La Monta/na Sagrada son extra/nos. Algun dia las vere...

Mi interes por la serie resurgio cuando vi de nuevo la pelicula de Luc Besson, The Fifth Element.  Milla Jovovich hace de LeeLoo, el quinto elemento...Muchos elementos de la pelicula se basan en el concepto de Moebius...por lo que demando a Luc Besson.  Lo extra/no del caso es que el estaba envuelto en la preproduccion...

Anyway, Luc Besson tambien desarrolla grandes peliculas, sobre todo en su version original en frances...Articulos previos:
