** Both ''Ad Astra'' and ''Lucy in the Sky'' were produced by Fox and released after the buyout by Disney. ''Ad Astra'' had a much better critical reception and box office intake (though still a bomb, just a less staggering one).
** Both ''Lucy in the Sky'' and ''Proxima'' premiered at the 2019 Toronto International Film Festival and have a female protagonist. ''Proxima'' got a much better critical reception (78% on Rotten Tomatoes) than ''Lucy in the Sky'' (22%), in the end.

** With the film opening the same weekend as ''Film/{{Joker|2019}}'', some reviewers [[https://www.forbes.com/sites/scottmendelson/2019/10/02/lucy-in-the-sky-natalie-portman-jon-hamm-dan-stevens--noah-hawley-joker-dc-films-review-fox-oscars-box-office/?sh=1450be128273 drew]] [[https://reddysreviews.com/2020/01/04/lucy-in-the-sky-review/ comparisons]] between the leads of the two films, who each spend the film losing their grip on reality, struggling to function in society and spinning toward a dramatic climactic crime. Both films also feature Creator/ZazieBeetz in similar supporting roles. ''Lucy'' director Creator/NoahHawley even commented on the two films.
--->'''Noah Hawley:''' “They’re both movies about characters who have a psychological decline that ends in violence, but he gets to be Joker with a capital J and she’s just supposed to be a joke... Obviously that movie is part of a larger comic book universe at a moment in which comic book movies are the currency, so it is going to be looked at in a very different light. Often, as a filmmaker I think about, [how] it’s not just the power of one image, it’s the power of two images side by side. The power of these two movies coming out simultaneously, and the one that’s going to earn $155 million the first weekend… I think that we need more thoughtful movies about the problems that people have on this earth and have less violence in them. That’s probably a pretty good solution.”

https://www.boxofficemojo.com/movies/?id=lucyinthesky.htm The huge box office bomb can sign Disney is going to dissolve Fox Searchlight Pictures for good, just like Dark Phoenix and Stuber causes a third quarter loss. I'm not surprised if the Disney exclusives actually dissolves due to this.
