Luc Besson makes movies that make amazing trailers. No film was a bigger disappointment for me based on raised expectations from a trailer than The Fifth Element. The first and only trailer I saw for it was very minimalist, like no dialogue at all. Just epic shots of epic shit with absolutely none of the ridiculous stuff that was prevalent throughout.
I was Sofa King mad when I left the theater after seeing it. It took me years to get over the feeling of having been cheated out of what looked to be the most amazing sci-fi/action experience ever.
Now I love it for what it is; not hate it for what it wasn't.
I think luc besson needs someone on set to say to him, "no, luc, that's fucking stupid"
because I do love the fifth element but goddamn is there some stupid shit in it
the stupid shit is the good shit
