Most stunning, ambitious, powerful and breathtaking Cinematic crossover goes to...The Critical Drinker and Fifth Element!

Drinker!!! I’ve ran out of your books on audible!! When’s the rest coming out on audio pal?

The Critical Drinker I think🤔Dune (2021) is bad movie🍿🎥remake and here's why....

Aziz, light!

Watch speed racer (the movie), pretty sure it was made by the wachowskis, regardless it's awesome

If that isn't the god-aweful truth of it.

Tucker's best work. The roll he was born to play.

Still less grating on the ears than PewDiePie

Ruby Rhod is legendary. A minor role which can't carry the entire movie alone of course but the character is a stroke of genius and has only gotten better with time.

ABSOLUTELY TRUE!

"But that's a mistake; I am the real Corbin Dallas!"

autoooooo wash

The people who dislike this video don't have a brain.

I wholeheartedly disagree. It was stupid. Deservers his shite meme

Leelu multipass

Better than most films that have come out of Hollywood the past decade.

True. I loved it so much that I still watch it every now and then.

Perfectly said. The general audience can forgive plot holes and just enjoy the ride if you give them a good film. Most people that watch movies are just looking for a way to relax and escape the daily grind for a couple hours.

It still holds the record for the most multi-purpose gun ever invented. Just don't press the red button.

I know right... It kinda makes it his favorite meme templates..

I was waiting for it the whole video but I guess it doesn't work from it's source

Where did he learn to negotiate like that?

@@gerardchartier9016 lmao, yup!

Same here. That is my favorite line also. I'll be watching it again in another year or so.

@@gerardchartier9016 *deadpans* I wonder.

@@KlaaismYippee kai - yai !

I've heard it was based on a book written by a 13yo

Ya he watched Harry Canyon in the Heavy Metal movie and took it from there.

No, it was youtube.

Nah it was Tik Tok

Which social media was it? Correct Answer: Yes.

People should stop arguing which one it is, and agree that ALL OF THEM are toxic. But mostly twitter.

And Instagram

First scenes with Ruby... Me: c'mon! Kick the shit out of him. Kill him!!!!! After aliens attacks the ship and ruby loose his "celebrity personality"... Me: Corben, save his ass please

thank you for the 3 new words in my vocab, sir :D

Super green

@@fernandogimenez7520 exactly how I felt. Hated him in that first scene, but his over the topness just won me over.

He was a brilliant character--no question.

His performance is one of the highlights of the film.

Just think: It was almost Prince. He was gonna do it, but had scheduling conflicts.

@@danielseelye6005 I have no idea if Prince could act (as I've not seen him in any movie), but it's hard to imagine he could have been as good as Tucker.

@@michaelnoble2432 You need to watch "Purple Rain" then.

I hated the character, but that's what makes it so brilliant. Chris tucker was perfect for the role!

and that's kinda the heart of good scifi. They might not look exactly like Ruby Rhod but they do exactly the same thing. Plus his obsession with "soundbites" is exactly what we have now with clickbait titles.

I also mentioned this! Good to know I'm not the only one!^^

What do you mean?

@@rohemoriyama The protagonist (Korben Dallas portrayed by Bruce Willis) never meets the Antagonist (Jean-Baptist Emanuel Zorg portrayed by Gary Oldman) eye to eye in the whole movie and vice versa!

@Shay Ogun Yeah, it's just..... ...perfect!

Which makes the elevator scene where they go into one a fraction before he comes out of the other a really great piece of storytelling. The funny thing being, even if they'd have met, neither would have known who the other was. But the audience do. :D

Amazing role. But.. what if he inspired jar jar binks?

@@davidh7246 then that's more on George Lucas and the prequels for doing it wrong than on this movie. Ruby is great because, aside from being legit funny, he appears in like the last third of the movie which means he doesn't overstay his welcome PS:Its like saying LOTR is at fault for all the low effort copies that were spawned after it became popular in the mainstream

Exactly

Yeah, I thought he was hilarious!

i liked the character

Exactly. He is today’s TikTok foretold.

Yeah, I have to agree. Chris Tucker's character is meant to be an overboard, abnoxus, snowflake that starts simply screaming at everything and everyone, once you take him out of his comfort zone. I think he adds a HUGE amount to the film. The reluctant comedy sidekick. Fab writing.

perfectly said. scrolled down here to point it out but you said it better than I could

Yeah,I like like his over the top mannerisms!

@@thecloudtherapist Yep, I thought his character was actually great, and was in perfect keeping with the zany nature of this top-notch movie (I was going to play it for my Dad and brother, on my 5.1 surround sound system, as it had superb sound (that Opera segment...), but my Dad had probably seen it and also didn't like the Ruby Rhod character...), and he's like Neelix on Star Trek Voyager; he takes some getting used to, but in the end he made a great contribution to the show.

That's a good way of putting it. It has to be recognized that while there are plot holes in this movie, does anyone really care about it? It's a fun ride to watch it. Whereas the recent Marvel and Star Wars movies, the plot holes are stark and obvious because we're desperately trying to find anything to enjoy about those movies. If the movie sucks, all you can do is criticize how bad the plot holes are.

Right. No one preaching worthless shite like "climate change," transgenderism, etc. Just a pants-load of bloody fun. Go away now.

I mean it encapsulates the late 90s early 2000s perfectly. Corporations were refreshingly honest, we are going to go balls deep to shill this product. None of the bland souless activist your making a difference. Buy our product because it's EXTREME

Even though I have it on DVD, I'll stop and watch it when it's on TV.

Spot on assessment !

For real. Endlessly watchable...

@@480JD And then continue the DVD just because ;)

Underrated comment right here....over the top, dramatic, self serving, yet when shit hits the fan, just another scared beta who still clings to their relevancy... Love this flick

One day there may be a time traveler who tries to stop The Fifth Element from ever being made because they pinpointed it as the cause of the widespread retardation that is influencer worship. It's a tough choice because the movie is one of my favourites but the retardation is strong.

Yes, I was going to leave this comment until I saw you beat me to it.

I remember watching this film 20 years ago and not understanding his character because I had no point of reference for him.... Now? Now I unfortunately understand.

Agreed

There are a few professional singers that can actually sing the Diva's song without any aural assistance from a synthesizer...look them up!

@@caronstout354 They can come close, but nobody is able to make the pitch changes as quick as plavalaguna. That's why they needed the synth. Even the guy who did the score said that it's not that a human singer can't sing the notes, it's that they can't change their pitch fast enough.

Lee Evans stealth role was awesome.

Where did he learn to negociate like that? I wonder... The dialogue is pure genius... :-D

"you, you..you you just-----" pure gold.

Great scene!

Who the hell is Ruby Rhod . . the gay black fellow ?

@@benwinter2420 yup. Although not gay, ironically. The character goes down on a female flight attendant in what is probably one of the funniest sequences in the movie LMAO

@@filipvadas7602 and she was a cutie too! Little freckles on the nose and below the eyes.....mmmmm freckles xp

agreed. Besson has yet to make another movie that was this good. Lucy had potential but in general I find his movies careen off a number of half decent ideas but never stop long enough to explore them

I agree. Even with plot holes it's still a masterpiece. Most movies can't get away with having plot holes and still be entertaining because they're so bad overall. The Fifth Element gets you invested in the characters, being high energy and that its just so much fun to watch. The plot is very simplistic, with all the holes, but that never particularly defined what bad story or movie is. Some of the best stories are simplistic and a lot of plot points are left out unexplained I think because generally it's just not an important point of the story that the writer wants to tell, and it takes up more time on the screen. I never notice the holes in the Fifth Element because it's so fun to watch and that it gets the job done in just 2 hours.

Ha! That made chuckle ... Too true man!

He kinda mellows out neat the end anyway yet still keeps his personality. Him realizing what is needed for his element is pretty intense and funny too.

@Wesley Swafford high pitched screaming def should have been toned down but the movie really lacks an everyman type of character to react to all this craziness and the movie was trying to transition the main characters into more serious roles because they knew what was at stake. Some of his stuff should be toned down but the last 1/3rd really needed an everyman and comic relief which he filled pretty well until that screaming part. The other parts he worked pretty well for IMO.

Don't make absurd comparisons. Chris Tucker's HAIR had more characterization than most of the new Star Wars characters.

@@warlordnipple Wesley is just a CHODE embarrassed because Ruby Rod gave him a ROD

Now that’s funny

Prove it.

@@stephenrice2063 He changed hairstyles.

chefjrmz nice one!

I'd say the hair was kept in form with dried "excretions"...

What plot holes? I didn't see any, ah sh*t, I just fell in one. One of many top one movies on my list. This movie made Star Wars seem to be like a car driving in the slow lane.

Exactly. The president of Earth, for example. The woke like to claim people have some major kind of problem with it recently but there’s decades-old evidence to the contrary. It’s the atrocious politics. Not who’s in a film. Nobody had a problem with Sigourney Weaver playing the toughest character in every Aliens movie. The first of which was released in 1979, a mere 43 years ago.

This is a story of a straight couple though, evidently the codes are here to make you comfortable and relate. Being able to relate is precisely why people want more representation. Whether or not the USA turns everything into clown district, from the so-called far-left to the utter bigotry and social regression, this is a fact. If the hero was Ruby in a today's theatre you would be the first to weep over good old westerns. Enough with the big bs.

@@PierreLucSex fact

yeah, the movie had diversity without feeling like it was forced in, it also has a strong female character who also has weaknesses and vulnerabilities, something movie makers of today just won't ever understand.

Damn, what a fantastic point. I've never even really thought about it and yet you are 100% correct. True diversity among cast when it actually makes sense to do so.

I can't explain it to you, then. He's a horrible character in a horrible movie.

If you're a full grown adult those high pitch voices get fucking annoying

@@tastycookiechip But that was the point of his character. Honestly, this isn't an intelligence thing. It has everything to do with taste. I loved the movie. I wish more people agreed with me.

@@Midwinter2 On opposite day.

ACQUIRED TASTE XD

LOL bro I'm dead rn

Ain't that the truth.

GREEN!

@@janp5063 Super green!

Personally, I thought the Ruby Rudd character with his little bench queens were hysterical.

Each character in the film was really cast so well to be honest. I don't think the movie would have worked with ANYONE else in the crew.

Y'like it?! *dances awkwardly

It’s super green.

A bit of a stretch but it’s ok 👍

I'd put the Chinese delivery guy's 'YOU ARE FIRED!' up there with it

@@firefootable try to explain that to karens

Well her delicious flat chest is one reason i liked to see her in my younger days.

No, she needs a man's love to work. She's problematic. CANCELLED. 🙄😣

I agree. Love Ruby Rhod.... proper funny

Same here! He grows on you the more you watch it. I think hitting the spot of an obnoxious character who irritates without crossing the line to where you straight up hate him is difficult, and he did it.

He was so over the top annoying that I actually appreciated him, and loved his part.

Glad to see I am not alone here! lol I enjoyed Christ Tucker in this movie. Or maybe being young watching the movie the first time had to do with it. loll

i prefer ruby rod over ruby rose.

This is exactly it. Watching The Fifth Element is like watching something happening in the Incal universe.

I think you really nailed it!

@@Hatrimn Yep, and none of them are to the level of what we see here. “In Beethoven's 2nd, when the puppies are still being hidden from the father, there are several close calls where he almost finds one.” 🙄 Not even remotely on the same level as what we’re talking about here.

LOL! Hell yeah, fkn kudos to him man! Every time my wife see him, no matter what movie he's in, she always says...Corbin? Corbin my man! 😆

I can't imagine a universe without Rudy Rod👍

Yeah this was one of those movies my family had on casette when I was a kid and that me and my brother watched religiously, and we both loved Tucker's character. The Fifth Element made for a really great kids movie (although I'm sure it took a while for us to actually get some of the jokes), when you're young enough to not give af about plot holes or inconsistencies and when the gorgeous visuals, quirkiness and earnestness of it all really resonates. I genuinely don't know - is this a movie that everybody who was watching movies in the 00s knows about, or is it like a culty hidden gem? For me and my brother it was up there with Star Wars, LOTR, the first two spiderman movies, The Matrix - a go-to favorite that formed our taste in entertainment. But I don't see it mentioned very often tbh.

@@murrothbro195 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 cassette! Damn, getting nostalgic over here!

@@murrothbro195 Ehhhh... I think it's more of a cult classic now. It had kind of a small run in theaters, but I don't remember it flopping. It wasn't a huge hit that most people into movies saw like the others you mentioned, and it's not aimed at a typical sci-fi nerd like Star Trek. Probably more in the niche of Blade Runner, Running Man, Cherry 3000, etc. Or a cross section of that and French dramedy like Amelie and Mic Macs, I guess. Besson was considered more like an auteur director with a very distinct style that produced things for a certain niche of film lovers, kinda between an indie genre guy and what people consider an art house director now. Fifth Element's one of the best movies ever made imo though, and it seems like a lot of people love it. It's one of a kind.

In addition, much of the film's concepts were designed by *Moebius* and Jean-Claude Mezieres of Valerian and Laureline fame

Except Jar-Jar was written for children, who generally loved the character while Ruby was definitely not written for children.

@@droe2570 Who loved Jar jar?

I actually hated him when I first watched it. Now I think he's great, nice bit of off-beat comedy.

@@droe2570 Yes but it wasn't well writen and far from perfectly executed. As for the acting and casting the actor could only work with what he was given.

lol same

It's glorious!

Bzzz-ZZZZ-tttTTTT!!!

Ruby Rhod was a parody of Prince and his puzzling hold over good looking women, and Tucker aced it.

Chris Tucker's transformation from Smokey in Friday to Ruby Rhod a cross dressing, lady killing, personality with legs, with an platinum blonde permed actual blow dryer for hair was the 2nd most drastic change between roles in both films. #1 Tony Lister going from wife beatin gang banging Deebo in Friday to President Linberg, the indecisive second guessing leader of the known universe. Told myself I forgot his name in this movie, then saw President Linberg and have to fully admit no chance I knew that even after double digit views on its TBS loop alone.

it doesn't have plot holes, it is roughly an hour and half of fairy tale in a universe never explained with no genuine backstory. it can have no plot holes because it is too short to know what the full situation was, which is a characteristic modern IPs are sorely lacking.

Him screaming when the shooting starts is ridiculous funny...

Beat me to it.

Well...Shots fired *:D

With nuggets at least it can choke on it... with evil balls of demonic plasma - well that's a whole another story.

@@krzosu There is a german word. SCHLUND

I completely forgot about that part, wooow you are right. He was live streaming the whole time, years before live was a thing.

@@VicRodriguez2 Pretty much yeah ... this movie was definitely ahead of its time

Reminds me about the theater in Moscow, that was held hostage about twenty years ago. The journalists were filming the most of it, even giving away the positions of people, who tried to survive. This movie was sort of prophetic. Not always in a good way.

The Super Vic Show what the fuck are you on about live television is as old as the medium itself, presenters wanting to bank off of controversy and suffering is just as well. it wasn’t predicting anything, it’s just an observation of the world of “entertainment” as it was, and continues to be.

Certified delicious flat chest.

It's called "born sexy yesterday". Perfect mix of innocence and hotness. 😍

My 13 year old self was absolutely in love with Milla in The Fifth Element 🤤

Still love her. Legendary.

Shame how shitty she is in all of the movies directed by her husband

But when you give it up things accelerate out of control.

Damn that's clever. Bravo

You better have at least 3 kids with the shamelessness of that Dad-joke.

You, my man, have just won the internet!

Good...GOD.

Both satirize their respective genres, but do it tastefully while giving us (the audience) an original story based off those tropes. Tropes where our "expectations are subverted" in a logical way. (Rian, take note)

Perhaps thats why I dislike both. Both were just too on the nose for me but still have some witty moments I did enjoy. But I can't stand watching either but I would put Bride far above Fifth Element.

Three kings is another one that manages to balance comedy, tragedy and action.

Boom!

@@strangerofthisworld shakes head slowly and with great remorse.

He secretly loves him but the drinker in him just won’t let him admit it lol

Funny I was going to write something similar. This is the first time i remember disagreeing with the Drinker. Ruby is fucking great. Tucker killed it

Agreed.

Same here...

I think Tucker did fantastic job on the character, it's just that I found the character incredibly grating which I assume was the point.

The same age as his girlfriend who played the Diva.

It’s also why it’s dumb and full of plot holes 😂. But somehow it still works and I like it.

Thats why its shite more like.

Shame that his Valerian movie missed the mark (mostly with the casting, visually it was A+)

so much meaning in so few words....

Multipass

I'm going to have start using my Multipass... ;-)

Indeed but apparently many people just slipped past it . i find much more annoying "comedians" starring other movies nowadays

@jonny benzene I think it was kind of the point how absurd this man who dresses like that and speaks like that is the sex symbol of the galaxy

excactly considering how serious and straight faced bruce willis is he is literally the opposit of that by design which make it hillarious

It was still a bit too much Even back then, when if first came out. You had weird mila and that space opera girl That was kinda enough. It however didnt hurt the movie, so its ok

@@rainlemon it was fine. I enjoyed his outrageous character too.

Lol like Post Malone

Exactly, Ruby Rhod represents pure trend and the ignorance that comes from it. He onky knows what's in ,and NOTHING else.

Agreed. He was a A fabulous character.

Yeah Post Malone is a prime example of how easy it is to attract a lot of women. In the end it doesnt matter if you look like a desk in detention or probably smell like someone’s underwear after the gym or such an alcoholic that your face is bloated and red daily. As long as you’ve got that money and status, you’re good to go, champ!

Ruby Rhod was funny. he was written to be annoying, but i always loved him! he's actually a damn good comic relief character. he's funny when it's appropriate, he's quiet when he should be and far as i can remember, the only problem he ever caused was when he accidently shot a baddie, alerting the others, which i wouldn't really blame on him. Corben told him to shoot if the baddie moved and it was kinda Corben's fault for trusting Ruby with a gun when he knows Ruby has a very jumpy personality. every time i saw an opportunity to ruin his character, they didn't take it. when Corben pins him to the wall and tells him to be quiet, he shuts his mouth. he's also useful to the plot; he carries the stones for Corben so he has his hands free to fight. his constant talking was also good thing because he was broadcasting live the whole time, keeping the president and the military updated on the situation. i seriously don't understand the hatred he gets from some people. he's awesome!

ono

Yup they're both slavs.

I read that in Drinker's voice.

Not to be that guy, but I will anyway! You went overboard with that spelling my dude! It's simple Tatiana, lol

You can call him Ruby lol

If you're having fun you don't have time to notice plotholes. The Sequel Trilogy wasn't fun, so the plotholes that they refused to address stick out like a sore thumb. It doesn't help the fact that the ST is riddled with plotholes and contrivances far moreso than your average Hollywood blockbuster.

I can do without Ruby Rhod. Still, I have to say good on Luc Besson for making a movie he dreamed up when he was just a boy. And who could ever forget that crisscross mummy lingerie?

I'd say the movie would be missing something without him. There's just something funny about a ridiculous, self-absorbed diva having to help safe the entire galaxy.

When I saw it in the theater when it came out, I really did not like Ruby Rod but after watching it many times the character really grew on me and I really have come to love his character.

Seriously, Parker should have gotten an Oscar for Ruby Rod. Every character in this movie was "over the top", but Ruby most of all. Hilarious that he kept the broadcast going the whole time. And he got one of my favorite movie lines of all time: "Why I always gotta get the broken one?" Seen the movie prolly 20 times. Up there with Groundhog Day and GalaxyQuest. Fantastic!

Great line, "Anybody else want to 'negotiate'?" Lots of funny comedy in this movie that rises right out of the action. "Multipass!"

The General tugging at his collar in response to the President was really what made that scene. It was great!

@@cchavezjr7 the President, the general and his men were hilarious too 😁
