Does The Fifth Element Have to be Good for Us to Love It?05 Feb 202501:14:15

In this, the Fifth Element episode of the pod, Beth and Tess discuss a movie about the future that’s actually fun, sci-fi stories where humanity gets neither better nor worse but remains obsessed with McDonalds, the vibes and politics of the 90s, Gary Oldman, Chris Tucker, the gender fluidity of Ruby Rhod, and whether a movie has to make any sense at all to be good.

Content warning: some adult language and frank discussion of the sexual content of a film.

A note about spoilers: As much as we’d love to make this a spoiler-free podcast, the truth is, we can’t really get much of a discussion going without completely spoiling the plot of the film we’re talking about. If you don’t want to be spoiled, watch the movie before you listen to us.

Special thanks to aceinet, who recorded our intro and outro song, “Floyd Filtertron DA Shuffle.”
