Another great one. oO
Thank you so much for finding and posting these!

So, matey, do you know how many of these pieces he did for Cameron, and more relevantly, how much of Moeby's ideas ultimately got used in the film?

I'm not much of a theatre-goer myself, but I remember a buddy back East wanting to see the film in theatre, and so we did! I recall it having a lot of CGI, with such being pretty ground-breaking (edit) art at the time, I believe.

Not a 'perfect' film let's say, but something that had never been seen before... I think! 😅

Honestly, I have no idea. Watched the movie long ago when I was a kid, might even have been before I discovered Moebius. I do remember that I was pretty impressed by it though, especially the scene when they switch someone to breathing "liquid air", don´t remember much else except that it was a deep sea scenario though :)
