YMMV / Le Visiteur du Futur

• Complete Monster:
  • "The Missionaries" (season 3): Joseph, the leader of the Missionaries, poses as a benevolent boss who sends his team in the past to avert disasters and prevent the Apocalypse. In actuality, Joseph himself causes those disasters in a scheme to enrich himself. His true goal is to found a tyrannical empire by forcibly gathering the survivors of the Apocalypse, threatening their life should they refuse. He sentences his loyal assistant Constance and the Visitor to the Necrophiliac Prison and straps explosive bracelets to his employees to keep them in line. Abducting and reprogramming Henry Castafolt, Joseph has him create an army of robots and has them kill innocent civilians.
  • La Meute (The Pack) novel: Loup (Wolf) is a former friend of the Visitor and fellow member of the Pack. Taking over the band after the death of the previous leader, Loup recruits and arms over 40 children, indoctrinating them with a false promise of travel to a better world. Planning a bloody rebellion to take over Neo-Versailles, Loup almost tricks a little boy into detonating himself in order to kill the Visitor and his friend Belette. When the Visitor and his ally faces him, Loup attempts to have them publicly executed, successfully murdering Taureau. Cornered and defeated, Loup tosses a grenade at the children to cause a distraction. Burning to death, he makes one last effort to take the Visitor with him.
• Continuity Lock-Out: The 2022 movie is a sequel to the webseries and doesn't spend much time in exposition or presentation of the pre-existing cast, making the plot and the already established characters' relations a bit hard to follow to newcomers. Having read La Meute is also recommended.
• Growing the Beard: The webseries merely was a succession of non-necessarily coherent running gags until the Time Brigade started being actually involved.
• Harsher in Hindsight: In one episode of the first season, the Visitor's prediction involves Raph becoming a junkie later. Cut to a photograph of Amy Winehouse (her death by overdose happened two years later).
• Ho Yay: Happens sometimes between the Visitor and Raph or between the Visitor and Henry. Also Matteo claimed to have a crush on Raph.
• Old Guard Versus New Blood: The film is pretty balanced. It is perfectly understandable for newcomers ^note to the point it can be seen as a kind of Soft Reboot when compared to the series, and especially compared to its fourth and last season, but it provides nice added bonuses for hardcore fans. As said above, there is some Continuity Lockout, but it may be more noticeable if you only watched the first two seasons (in what case you might wonder why some important characters don't appear at all or seem to have gone through the Heel–Face Revolving Door) than if you know nothing about the show. The film mainly focuses on two brand new characters, and most of the other ones have identities that are either self-explanatory in the context of the film or are turned into twists for those who don't know, like Henry Castafolte being a robot or the Visitor's real name being Renard.
• One-Scene Wonder: Joueur du Grenier as Raph's mean therapist.
• The Scrappy: Raph's girlfriend, Stella, seems to be the least popular character probably because she's always bitching at her boyfriend. On the other hand, she stays only with him because he led her to believe that they are fated to be together. When she discovers the truth, she immediately leaves him.
• Unintentionally Unsympathetic: Raph can comes off as this in his relationship with Stella, notably in early seasons, especially in season 2 where he stalks her, tries to lie about being a time travelling hero by staging an agression with Matteo, time travels with the Visitor's machine multiple time to prove he is right because he didn't trust her when she said she told him about her birthday, lies to her about them being fated to be together despite the Visitor telling him she is not the woman of his life, and his general behaviour which makes him seems to consider that Stella has to be with him. However, he gets better in subsequent seasons, especially in season 4 where Raph eventually let Stella go because she is happier in Neo-Versailles with Clothilde IV than in the present with him.
