Went to see the in theater showing this past weekend (great time) but snacks line was brutal and walked in as movie was already rolling. I understand there was an into by Leonard Maltin before the feature. Does anyone have a link so I can see it? I checked YouTube and couldn't find anything. Thanks!
Took my son (12) to the showing, he had seen it before, but didn't remember it. Had a blast!
After Ruby showed up, he kept calling him "The Streamer" and it did make perfect sense.
Another way this movie was ahead of it's time.
Watched it in the theater last night. I thought since I originally saw it in the theater 25+ urs ago that the line was that Baby Ray wasn't gonna get much out of this performance bc he's STONED OUT. But last night I finally heard "stone deaf." It does change the character
Went with a dozen friends and had a great time. Great to see younger people really into it as well
I cannot begin to explain how amazing the experience was. The color, Textures and sounds. I was overwhelmed.
So I would like to share a Easter Egg/Theory I noticed many many years ago.
Inside Korbins room next to his bed. There is A Brazil Flag, But not just any Brazil Flag but a Brazilian soccer, Futbol (whatever your country calls it) Each Star represents the amount of of times a country has won the world cup. Why on earth would a Retired Millitary/Taxi Cab Driver in the year 2263 have this hanging in his room.... Because the production designers or set dressers of the Film must have been Die hard soccer fans and wanted to stick it to the Brazilian team and tease the idea that even in the year 2263 they would still only have 4 stars.
And to even spice up this theory even more, The 98 world Cup France's Biggest Rival was Brazil, wich ended up being the Final match where France took it 3-0...leaving brazil with 4 stars.
just watched the rerelease and i still love this flick.
Went to the re release of the movie tonight. I heard the very last comment by Corbins Mom when taking too the president.
"I'll just Saran Wrap myself to the bed and pretend my child is suffocating me..."
Not only because a dog is a man's best friend, and Leeloo wants to be human at heart. But also because the dog can remind her of Korben. And here, it is worth noting one phrase from Finger at the beginning of the film - "Hey, dog brain, Finger here." And therefore - Leeloo's choice of a dog as a pet would be very symbolic.

Maybe the diva was psychically speaking to Corbin but it's awesome to think that a harden vet sat at an Opera and was moved by her voice. Even if she was alien
I will say since Bruce Willis is starting to lose it with time I think a nice sequel if the director ever sees this is when leeloo and Corbin separate but because she realizes he will grow old and not understand and her genetic engineering is perfect so she is empathetic but to spare him she goes back into hyper sleep not to abandon him but to also protect what they built together.
That would honestly make me happy with modern film making.
Never could figure out what she says when Korban finds them at the airport.
I'm just so amazed by this costume. Especially the head design! It's like a rubber material or something, that's glued to the actress/singers head? Truly a unique alliance design!
I tried to see if there were any behind the scenes that showed the makeup effects process but I can't find anything. Do anyone know where I might be able to?
It'll fade to look more skin toned when it's healed and I'm super happy with it 🌞
The Dark Planet is stopped in it's tracks. Sounds like the time for a celebration right?
Wrong. It would just get pulled into earth's atmosphere and eventually still strike the earth and do permanent damage.
Even if it didn't, it would fuck with the moons effect on the earth's rotation and screw up a bunch of shit.
Come on, Luc. Do better.
Watching it again while painting some minis... and I wondered.. Why did Finger's Taxi have a scanner block on it?
