The Sword and Laser discussion

Watched 5th Element again last night and I had forgotten how good it is:)

Love that movie. My favourite line "I don't negotiate."

Hehe yes

One of my favorites! So many good lines... "I only speak two languages: English and bad English."

lol

Still a favorite of mine

Goofy as hell but I love it all the more for that.

Dot.

I love that movie! Ruby Rhod is hilarious.

Great movie. So underrated!

One of my favorite movies.

Mul-ti-pass.

I have the blue lady song on my iPod. :)

I think I watched it twice last month. Then Tank Girl right after.

Leelu Dallas, Multipass!

Loved it too, wish I had never seen it so I could watch it for the first time again.

Hehe Oh Tank girl, haven't seen that in a while.
Watched hellboy too, which is funny but not as good.

I must be the only person who thinks it's a pile of pants then. Some half-decent effects don't make up for the rest of it. Sorry.

Definitely the only one. Possible on the entire internet.

^_^

I also love this movie.

But...but it has a blue person...and kung fu...and and flying taxis...a multipass?

I remember seeing it in the theater. One of my friends, I forget who, said it was like William Gibson on prozac. That always stuck with me.

One of my favorites.

Don't forget Bruce Willis in an inexplicable orange tank top.

And blonde hair

Let's also not forget Milla Jovovich kicking butt in what was essentially some carefully applied gauze. I was like 12 when that movie came out and it wasn't just blue, singing aliens and big explosions that made it a favourite with me and my friends.

Another thing I love about this movie is that I can never quite figure out how aware it is of it's own absurdity.

Yet another reason to revoke my nerd card: never seen this movie. And no real desire to do so. But I love reading this thread about it.

LOVE this movie.
Still not sure if my wife gets the reference every time I say "danko" when we're cooking together, but oh well.

You're depriving yourself.

Its one of the few that I keep on my ipod.
Its an emergency: "Oh your going to stuck here for a while"
movie. Although, she really is better live in concert.

Bzzz. Bzzzzzzzzzz!

True. She was really is good at a live concert.

I was always a bit unsure about this movie but i watched it again recently and now agree, its rubbish.

LOVE this movie. It seems to be on cable every weekend and yet I can't bring myself to turn it off even though I'd watched it through a week ago.

I haven't seen it in awhile, and realized I only have it on VHS. BluRay arrived . :-)

Lol fair enough. Can't like everything in this world

Haha yes, Bruce Willis in the days he had hair

The movie was loosely based on the French graphic novel series Valerian ... which is interesting as the director has recently said he's working on a Valerian movie!

Gary oldham is great in it as well
