Valerian and the City of a Thousand Planets

Or really any manga/comic adaptation where they strip all the interesting stuff to make a paint by numbers plot. League of Extraordinary Gentlemen probably qualifies too

    Agreed on Valerian. It wasn't bad, but the world around it looked more interesting than the plot it had. Jupiter Ascending had some potential as well, but the plot just felt disjointed and chaotic.
