Nothing what so ever because The 5th Element is a quality film.

This is one of my all-time favorite movies, mainly because it's not your typical scifi movies. What other one has a gorgeous opera in the middle, followed by kick-ass fighting? That scene is what hooked me on to it. However, whenever it's on TNT, they always cut stuff out (ie Leeloo kicking a bad guy in the crotch). Good thing I have it on dvd! 
No power in the 'verse can stop me!

Funny how it just grows on you, but it does.
Truer words may never have been spoken. That's exactly how I see it. I think y'all have talked me into owning the gorram movie now! Thanks.
People love a happy ending. So every episode, I will explain once again that I don't like people. And then Mal will shoot someone. Someone we like. And their puppy. - Joss

Not a guilty pleasure, a necessity in your collection. Guilty pleasure would be Death Becomes Her (another Willis flick) or Popeye. Yes, I did say Popeye....
and many others I cannot name.

By the way Auraptor, you spelled guilty wrong. Tee hee.
But I won't tell.

If you like TFE, you should get the Superbit or the recent new version (also a superbit, if I understand correctly); the original release on DVD was astounding; the superbit goes a mite farther, detail-wise.
I watch it often...

This is a great movie that has a little bit of everything. Humor, action, great performances, interesting story, killer soundtrack, great pacing and effects. And most importantly, as mentioned above, it gets better the more you watch it.
De-lurking to revive two threads in one sitting.

For us, The Fifth Element was marketed wrong. We expected a strictly serious and perhaps weird movie; instead, we got "The Fifth Element" in a theater that was so cold (even in the middle of summer) that it gave us shivers and a headaches! HOWEVER...
Some friends wanted to see it really bad so we humored them and went. We went into it with more neutral expectations, long pants, and sweaters. It was great! Gary Oldman... SNORT!
Now let's see... Ruby Rod... Jar Jar... Ruby Rod... Jar Jar... which is more annoying? Perhaps a thread for another time.
