And each time I see an article like this, I simply marvel at the immense love for art and life it has. What an incredibly talented crew, what product of mastery and care.
The Fifth Element has similar cinematic feeling as the first Blade Runner.

It was a fun film, but Chris Tucker broke the pacing too many times for a general audience. Even now on rottentomatoes his role still distracts focus from the character arcs.

Seeing hover cars getting drive through McDonalds will forever be a future hope for me (my inner 10 year old self)
