The English dub of this premiered at the BFI, and the fact that it was dubbed was presented as "bad news", as well as that it had a few edits, but the "good news" was that it was mostly unedited. However, it was heavily edited and reanimated. Lu had a much deeper backstory, the story was relocated to a more industrial town, and new jokes included a video-game-quality-CG slam on The Shape of Water. In fact, the BFI had so much fun with this full house of a showing that they paused it during a fade to black and projected lifelike holograms of super pigs from Okja nervously rushing around the room. We could almost feel them. No casualties. When they were out the door somehow, it didn't even seem to be about SEIRÈN, but I think it was just some young woman that Lu and the dog befriend. Having believed I already saw much of this, I went out to get refreshments, but because this is a dream I ended up at what looked like my parents' friend's house. This appeared to be the cinema's new hallway? Just when the film couldn't be more insane, when I was about to reach the screen, I ran into Harvey Weinstein. Yes, Harvey Weinstein. I was terrified and bemused but tried to play it cool. He even gave me a slight hug, which left me deeply uncomfortable. So I went back in and it turned out that he was attending this screening alongside a whole bunch of other white male executives who had just then taken up the two back rows, the further two rows now empty, in talks to promote himself, expect the audience to forgive him and potentially buy the film from GKIDS. The film paused again to let him speak, and nobody in the audience could forgive him, not even the executives. There was an argument and a protest to boot him out of the cinema, arrest him and resume the film, when one executive (probably Harvey himself) pulled out a gun and so commenced a shootout between the executives! Harvey was among those who died, but no casualties among the general public in the audience. My friend was injured and paralysed for a good 45 minutes. Lu Over the Wall (or at least how I dreamt it) resumed eventually, to a much smaller crowd. For a cartoon about a happy, dancing vampire-mermaid, this was uncalled for.

Unfortunately there are less aliens in this film than there is meant to be, but it does co-star Dwayne Johnson after K retires, it does take place on a skyscraper and it does in fact end with Will Smith and Dwayne kissing.
