Proof of concept trailer.

Apparently it takes cues from literary sources such as “Moby Dick” and “Dune”:

Surely Moby Dick meets Dune is just a beached whale.

So much wrong with that. "Bigger fish" from Phantom Menace, or very like. Okay space ships in the future don't have the technology for remote turrets so folks have to stand outside.

No radar or tracking devices either, it seems. UAVs have suddenly disappeared from the scene, as has genetic engineering/farming to manufacture animal products on a mass scale. And all this despite managing FTL travel.

It looks stupid.
