The villain and the hero never facing off directly is part of what made the movie so good. It didn't follow the Hollywood manual in many ways. Plus Gary Oldman played Zorg perfectly. He was "My favrit." Mia had the adorable face and no one else i can imagine could play Lilu. The opera singer even in blue was beautiful in many ways including the voice. It was so many unusual perfections that made this movie so great.

I did some digging after I saw this 10 Facts video and it looks like "Mr. Shadow" was the tentative title to the sequel. Which would probably explain the origin "of pure evil" more and could have Leeloo and Dallas deal with being universal celebrities and the impact that has on their psyche. Granted all that is speculation. I understand the reason being for why Besson dropped the idea of the sequels was because of how long and arduous the special effects process was to work with at the time; versus projects like The Transporter and Taken that aren't green screen effects heavy.

@Stasis Field in all honesty, the whole world has been "evolving and adapting into one of more and more weirdness and goofiness and craziness than it was a few years before" for at least the past 50+ years. So if you stretch that exact method of "change over time" into a few hundred years in the future, I have no doubt it'd be at least similar or weirder than, or at minimum "equally different" from the last few years.
@seanabsher55773 жыл бұрын
Take for instance: comparing the "rare and unusual nature of cosplay and the like" of the world of the 1990s to how it's become almost a common term with many people either knowing what it is or actually having done it themselves (people between 15 and 40 years old) , in the last few years. It used to be the few who were least popular in modern culture and now it's more or less the new normal. Look how nerds / geeks / etc were commonly picked on, mocked, belittled, and otherwise bullied throughout school and past highschool, from as recently as the 1980s and 1990s, but now , it's normal , if not celebrated if you have interests in videogames, computers, comic book heroes, cartoons, and anime. Things have been changing all around us, a lot. It IS getting weirder and wilder. The world is becoming more accepting and less critical of "different". I'm pretty sure that's really for the most part not a bad thing
@GamingKeenBeaner4 жыл бұрын
The funny part is that the way the antagonist and protagonist never met each other is actually one of the most daring and interesting things about how this story was presented. Zorg's own evil plotting was really the thing that destroyed him in the end; While Dallas' humble wish for a quiet life and his desire to protect Lilu were ultimately what lead to all of Zorg and "Mr. Shadow"' having all their plots come to nothing. I'm not so sure this movie would have been as good if Zorg and Dallas had a big fight scene. Zorg wasn't really a soldier, and Dallas wasn't really a particularly vengeful type. They both had totally different agendas and no absurd plot convenience tools were used to force them into the same space even though their paths were completely intertwined. I doubt this would work in a lot of movies, but somehow it worked with the silly nature of this film.

That said, Dallas was more onscreen time than leeloo, but that's because he's a super amazing sidekick. He's the doer, he gets stuff done , like a cross between a sidekick and a costarring hero. This film has 2 main heroes, not one. I say this because , unarmed, leeloo took out more villains per minute than korben did , on a few scenes of each of them fighting. Mr. Dallas did a lot of gunplay and military style heroics, but at the end of the day he was the trigger to leeloo's gun. Neither can do much without the other (as far as saving the day) , and I think that was a major plot point. They needed eachother, so they both could help eachother save the world, because neither could do it on their own. Zorg was not the main villain, so much as the doer for the main evil overlord being. Seemingly the evil mr shadow couldn't take stuff , hunt stuff, or do stuff without enemies coming to "him", until he was ready to make his big bad guy act against earth. Zorg was like the manager for the roadies who prepared the tour for the main villain's big reveal at Earth. Dallas was more than just the bodyguard, but alone he was less than the main hero

She pronounces it herself in commentaries of other movies Jo VO vich. Not Jo ko vich. I must accept how a person pronounces her own last name (stage name or otherwise) as how it is her name should be pronounced. As many times as her name is mentioned in this video, this is a drastic distraction. Fun fact: the Diva also astonished cast and crew by actually performing the bulk of her aria with her own voice, most of the aria was expected to have needed to be synthesized, as it wasn't believed a person could come close to truly performing it.

This is one of my all time favourites, there is so many things wrong with it, tone, tempo, music and motivations - yet when all parts of the movie get together it somehow just works. Sometimes i wonder if Besson did it just as an dare to himself. Strong military general - lets make comedy scenes with him. Comedy sidekick - lets make him as annoying as possible. Romantic interest for our main hero - let her talk a language nobody understands, and finally evil villain, let us not explain why he goes along to destroy everything and let him never ever meet the main hero.

I LOVE this movie! I've owned it on videotape & DVD. I've watched it more than a dozen times! It was the first time I'd seen Milla Jovovich on screen, & I thought she was a perfect blend of beauty & naivety (although, at times, she displays brilliance.) This movie makes me laugh (every scene with Chris Tucker in it) & cry (when Leeloo wants Dallas to say he loves her.) IMO, the casting, SFX, costumes, & soundtrack were close to perfect. While in social isolation during these trying times, I'll likely watch it a couple more times!

The fact that the hero and the villain never met but were so interconnected was a great part of the story. If Zorg had not fired the 1 million people the Dallas would have still be driving his cab. Or he might have been.I thought it was a great twist that they never met but were fighting against each other with out knowing it.

In the scene where Zorg's man missed the plane, and is calling Zorg to tell him about it, as we all know, Zorg blows up the phone station the guy was using. The explosion was not CGI, and the two stuntmen that are closest to the explosion, were for one second in the fire blast. And another thing I know. After Dallas blows up the ledge with the spiked granade, the crew lost control of the fire for a good 20 minutes. Happily/luckily, no one got hurt.
