Buffista Movies 3: Panned and Scanned
A place to talk about movies--Old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.

(And I loved Fifth Element, but between AvP, Resident Evil, and Hudson Hawk, it should be pretty obvious that I will occasionally love a movie that has no Earthly reason to be loved)
And see, Fifth Element is one of those movies that I really should have loved, and on exactly those terms, but no. It inspired nothing but the fiery clambakes of hatred deep within my soul.

It's prolly on no one's screen any more (certainly yours or mine), but I went back and inserted a space after every third word. If that doesn't work, it's beyond my control.

My mother was in Fifth Element.
(No really, it's getting stale and I'll stop soon, I promise)

Hudson Hawk is a misunderstood masterpiece. I'll stand by that argument until it's pried from my cold, dead fingers.
And now I must commune with the dolphins.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
I loved Fifth Element too. (But I hate carrots.)

An interviewer once mentioned that Luc Besson had referred to the Fifth Element as 1/3 Brazil.

Hey. New board.
I liked the Fifth Element an awful lot. Not purchasing-level liked, but I"ll watch it anytime I see it playing on a TV somewhere, at least for a while.
In other news, I adore carrots.
But I have not seen Resident Evil.

That's the pain / That cuts a straight line down through the heart / We call it love
I have the love for The Fifth Element, and not just 'cause of Milla. I'm actually surprised, though I suppose I shouldn't be, that so many people hate it so much. It's so silly and entertaining and shiny and yeah, obviously cribbing from Brazil but without any of the, well, depth, but look over there! Luke Perry!
Okay, so I am easily won over by silly science fiction movies.
