Yeah that’s kind ofmy point. The comedic aspect takes something away fom the main storyline of an otherworldly evil coming to destroy the earth. The film tries to have it both ways
Yes, unfortunately it led to him being given a lot of money for some very disappointing films. Really it was just something new made by someone from an independant culture who wasn't aping the Hollywood movies of his childhood like Paul W S Anderson. The stellar cast performances didn't hurt either.
Absolutely, it was like nothing else before and hasn't been close to duplicated since. It was the perfect mix of theme, production, casting, directing and cultural scifi reflection and even a positivish vision of the future. Still watch it about once a year and its always entertaining, can confirm its too metaphorical and metaphysical for zoomies though, so its slowly being forgotten sort of how things like Flash Gordon didn't become iconic for millenials.
It was beautiful and well executed, the whole story and scenery had a serious and playful feel. It was amazing the first watch and enjoyable everytime after
dystopian nightmare where the bottom dwellers get fricked. mankind's promethean fire expressed through mindless consumption and corporate imperialism. dallas' addiction, attempt to control the fire through cigarettes. to harness fire is human nature. assuming the mantle of responsibility through love and faith. leeloo the divine feminine, should have been cast as a black b***h, would have been more symbolically significant.
I remember thinking so but I was also a child so...
Yes, and it still blows the hell out of most modern movies today.

What happened?
Right up until Chris Tucker’s character showed up & changed the whole vibe of the film
Mind-blowing? No, but it was creative and funny.
I hated him at first, now I love him.
I don’t dislike his character but it did change the mood of the movie to an almost cartoonish comedy
yeah maybe a bit much, but the future is going to be really gay. the whole thing is a bit cartoonish regardless of his character or performance.

Silly things can happen in dire moments. Just look around.
this film was written by a frencher
being gay is his mind state
I think the performance is just a little too over-the-top, or he's in it just a little too long. Needed to be toned down a little bit.
Judi Dench as M, Jar Jar Binks and Chris Tucker in the 5th element are the ultimate trifecta of filters
>mfw it's true
What's wrong with Judi Dench?
She refuses to do anal
Yeah, she's not Judi Clench
Nothing wrong with Dench herself, just people lost their shit when a female was announced as M.
FILTERED
it sells the universe for me that a degenerate weirdo like Ruby Red is a massive celebrity.
Yes, annoying as frick. Never gonna watch it again.
For me it's the blonde girl who shows Dallas all the tuxedos in his hotel room closet
She gave me a Ru-Bee- ROD!
No but it was fun.

It mostly copies Super Mario Bros (1993) and adds some sex stuff.
No. I remember being severly disappointed after it first viewing it. However over time I've come to appreciate its strangeness.
Still is. It has no right to be as good as it is.
Meanwhile British people be like, hot day, would you like an ice lolly?
>Was this movie mind-blowing in 1997?
yeah
>black president
>Willis with a hairpiece
>Milla Johovovich's flat chest
>rad pig aliens race with cool sci fi guns
>Chris tucker in an insane costume
Whoever made this shit was a genius
the production was, yeah. it's got a kind of vibrance that other shit from the time just didn't have.
If someone made it now, there'd be an extra 35 minutes of stuff that isn't needed.
It was mindblowingly French.
It was beautiful and well executed, the whole story and scenery had a serious and playful feel. It was amazing the first watch and enjoyable everytime after
Yes, yes it was.
Which PS1 game is this?
That's better special effects than movies have nowadays though.
Should've gone with PS2. Fifth Element bodies everything from the PS1. Everything.
This is back when people still expected personal airplanes to be normal in the future
Imagine how disappointed millennials are
>Imagine how disappointed millennials are
I don't have to imagine...
This is 300 in the future so I never really expected anything like that, but I am disappointed that Back to the Future 2 didn't happen.
>300 years in the future
Planes are almost as old as cars, anon, and not really any more dangerous
Multipass
You bet your sweet meat popsicle
It was mind blowing apart from chris rock being so fricking annoying in this.
AZIZ LIGHT!
tpbp
yes. the effects are still quite good.
No, it's just stupid

It was pretty good. Still enjoy it now.
Back then the black guy was annoying, there was a weird blue alien singing and the girl looked good in that white outfit.
Whats more mind blowing is the tim and eric tayne skit becoming reality with ai generated clips etc
>tim and eric
Are those the annoying fricks who ruined Check it Out with their crossdressing homosexualry?
back in the days this movie wasn't mind-blowing because we thought we would have this quality of movies for years to come
