Dans Travelling, un film de science-fiction, une comédie musclée, signée Luc Besson sortie en 1997 : The 5th Element, le 5e élément. Dans ce film, le Bien est confronté au Mal absolu, qui revient tous les 5000 ans et se propose à chaque fois de détruire toute forme de vie. En 2263, le Mal est repoussé par une équipe de Justes et de justiciers groupés autour des 4 éléments fondamentaux et dʹun cinquième, incarné en un être parfait, en lʹoccurrence une jeune fille aux cheveux orange prénommée Leeloo. Luc Besson, auréolé du succès de Nikita puis de Léon, donne enfin corps à un projet qui lui tient à cœur depuis son adolescence. Le 5e élément est tiré de son livre écrit 16 ans. Il lui faut 20 ans et de nombreux millions de dollars pour en tirer un film. Le 5e élément est une véritable superproduction. Lorgnant du côté de Star Wars et dʹIndiana Jones, mâtiné de bande dessinée européenne, le cinéaste associe à son projet les dessinateurs Moebius, et Jean-Claude Mézières pour les décors, la création de lʹunivers et les créatures du futur. Pour les effets spéciaux, cʹest la société de James Cameron et la musique est signée Eric Serra, complice de toujours de Luc Besson. Du côté des acteurs de ce Space opéra, Bruce Willis, star ultime des années 90, est le héros avec une débutante, Milla Jovovich. On trouve également Gary Oldman, Ian Holm et Chris Tucker. Gigantesque fresque sur la paix, sur lʹamour, le film est un véritable succès en France, et à lʹInternational malgré des critiques mitigées qui lui reprochent une impression de déjà-vu et de naïveté du propos. Mais le public adore et à  force de diffusions et de rediffusions, le 5e éléments obtient un statut de film culte. Nommé aux César et aux Oscars, le film obtient trois César dont celui du meilleur réalisateur. Mais nous allons vous raconter tout ça. Direction, le 23e siècle, dans le taxi volant de Korben Dallas, dans lequel vient dʹatterrir avec fracas, Leeloo.

Welcome back to another edition of the Video Store Podcast. In honor of Women's History Month, I've selected four films featuring what I like to call “Wonder Women.” These are women who are brave, kind, strong, and all-around wonderful. This isn't meant to be an exhaustive list—simply four films that resonate with me personally as a woman, and you should watch, whether you're a woman or not. Fried Green Tomatoes (1991)First up is the 1991 Oscar-nominated film, Fried Green Tomatoes. The film stars Mary Stuart Masterson, Mary-Louise Parker, Kathy Bates, and Jessica Tandy, among others. Fried Green Tomatoes is based on the book Fried Green Tomatoes at the Whistle Stop Cafe by Fannie Flagg, who also wrote the first draft of the screenplay. This film flashes between the 1920s and the 1980s, looking at Wonder Women through all stages of life. No matter where you find yourself, Fried Green Tomatoes is a great film to enjoy with the wonderful women in your life. Steel Magnolias (1989)Next up is Steel Magnolias from 1989. Focusing on southern women's culture in the 1980s, Steel Magnolias highlights the friendship among six women who must persevere through difficult circumstances. Starring Shirley MacLaine, Olympia Dukakis, Sally Field, Julia Roberts, Dolly Parton, Daryl Hannah, and Tom Skerritt, Steel Magnolias expertly blends comedy and drama, making a great movie full of Wonder Women. 9 to 5 (1980)The second Dolly Parton film in today's line-up is 9 to 5. The film, in addition to Dolly Parton, features Lily Tomlin, Jane Fonda, and Dabney Coleman. Highlighting 1980s office politics that are unfortunately still all too relevant today, 9 to 5 tackles serious women's issues with humor, making their points even more effective and poignant. This is a great laugh after the tear-jerking drama after Steel Magnolias and Fried Green Tomatoes. Alien (1979)The last film in our Wonder Women selections is 1979's Alien directed by Ridley Scott. Starring Sigourney Weaver, Tom Skerritt, Veronica Cartwright, Yaphet Kotto, John Hurt, Ian Holm, Harry Dean Stanton, and Bolaji Badejo as the Xenomorph, Alien, is a phenomenal sci-fi horror film. Alien's leading wonder woman, Ripley, played by Sigourney Weaver, is an amazing sci-fi heroine. She's smart, brave, and resourceful, totes a flamethrower, and has a kitty-cat sidekick. What more do you want in a film about a Wonder Woman? We hope you enjoy these films and come back and see us next week on the Video Store Podcast. Thanks for reading Video Store Podcast!

How do you follow an industry-shaking debut like SEX, LIES, AND VIDEOTAPE? If you're Steven Soderbergh, the answer is obvious: a weird, downer sort-of-biopic of Franz Kafka shot in black and white. We're joined by filmmaker Christopher Jason Bell (MISS ME YET, THE WINDS THAT SCATTER) to talk 1991's KAFKA, Soderbergh's influence, and Chris's outstanding new film FAILED STATE. Great ep!

In this episode, we continue our Year of the Nineties with the heartbreaking small-town drama from director Atom Egoyan, "The Sweet Hereafter", starring Ian Holm, Bruce Greenwood and Sarah Polley! Listen now!

This week, Roy Scheider plays a small but pivotal supporting role in David Cronenberg's cult classic, NAKED LUNCH! Adapted from the novel by William S. Burroughs, Scheider stars alongside Peter Weller, Judy Davis, Ian Holm, and more in what may be the strangest and one of the last great movie of his career.

In space, no one can hear you scream. In sequels that are also prequels that tell standalone stories while respecting the original and tying together diverse material from comics to video games, no one can hear you scream about continuity. Return to the Alien franchise in this 2024 installment directed by Fede Álvarez (who helmed Don't Breathe) and set in-between the first two films. While the outing succeeded at the box office, audiences were divided over the third-act twist and the decision to digitally resurrect the late actor Ian Holm as the film's synthetic, Rook. It just scored an Oscar nom for Best Visual Effects, but what do our hosts make of Alien: Romulus? Are our hearts bursting through our chests with love for this flick, or did it give us indigestion?   For more geeky podcasts visit GonnaGeek.com   You can find us on iTunes under ''Legends Podcast''.

Erin and Brennan find a time hole to escape the supreme being who doesn't seem like a good guy. This week we talked about Time Bandits, the film made by 2/3rds of Monty Python that everyone should know about. We hop through the annals of time with 6 bandits (angels?) plus Kevin and encounter the best cameos. We have Sean Connery, Shelley Duvall, John Cleese, Michael Palin, Ian Holm, R2-D2 (Kenny Baker!), and a Jawa (Jack Purvis)! We fight a minotaur with Agamemnon, give two pennies for the poor to rub with Robin Hood, and Napoleon watches little people hitting each other (aka Erin going through daily life). All the while, we follow our selfish leader, Randall, though I'm pretty sure the Fortress of Ultimate Darkness is a bad place to go. 

“One fella is just hollowed out!” - Chris on xeno aftermath gore On this week's episode, we're taking the show back to Franchise Town as we chat about the solid-ish sci-fi sequel/prequel/in-between-quel, Alien: Romulus! How incredible are all the ship and planetary designs in this film? Should they have kept the entire story on the mining colony and had the xenos just chasing them down there? How great is David Jonsson in this film, portraying both Andy and Upgraded Andy? Is Bjorn the most annoying character in the entire franchise? And yeah, this Ian Holm decision is truly repugnant! PLUS: Lotta Alien: Resurrection in here, folks! Alien: Romulus stars Cailee Spaeny, David Jonsson, Archie Renaux, Isabela Merced, Spike Fearn, Aileen Wu, and Robert Bobroczkyi as Offspring; directed by Fede Álvarez.  Don't forget to snag your tickets to our first worldwide digital event of the year when we talk about Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire LIVE on Thursday, January 30 at 9pm/et!

Forrest, Conan Neutron, Kristina Oakes, and Kt Baldassaro start off dystopian december with Terry Gilliam's 1985 Brazil Starring a truly impressive cast, Jonathan Pryce, Robert De Niro, Michael Palin, Kim Greist, Katherine Helmond, Bob Hoskins, and Ian Holm. Terry Gilliam paints a bleak picture of a society where every day citizens are completely complacent and distracted by Hyper-Consumerist spectacle and an endless multi-layered bureaucracy holds totalitarian control. Inspired by the idea of George Orwell's 1984, Former Monty Python artist turned auteur Terry Gilliam shows a state apparatus both absurdist and terrifying... and the story of one man who hasn't completely lost his humanity. #brazil #terrygilliam #montypython #robertdeniro #dystopian #dystopianfuture #december #moviepodcast #filmpodcast #movielovers #ianholm #britishfilm #criterioncollection #criterion Watch KT Baldassaro & Jared Skolnick's Girl in the Basement: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mcn2Q57VXEQ Join our discord: https://discord.gg/aVAjz7qn The Movie Night Extravaganza Patreon helps us keep the show going.. become a Patron and support the show!! https://patreon.com/MovieNightExtra Conan Neutron has music available from Conan Neutron & The Secret Friends https://neutronfriends.bandcamp.com OR if you want to become a Protonic Reversal patron: https://patreon.com/protonicreversal

Welcome to Cyberpunk Cinema – the Definitive Dive into the Dark Future of Science Fiction. I am your host, Anthony La Pira, and I will be taking you on a cinematic journey through the sprawling cityscapes, the crippling datastorms, and the cybernetic implants that encompass all things Cyberpunk.In this week's episode, I will be breaking-down the 1979 protopunk science-fiction horror masterpiece, Alien – directed by Ridley Scott; written by Dan O'Bannon; story by Dan O'Bannon & Ronald Shusett; starring Sigourney Weaver, Tom Skerritt, John Hurt, Veronica Cartwright, Harry Dean Stanton, Ian Holm, and Yaphet Kotto. After investigating a mysterious transmission of unknown origin, the crew of a commercial spacecraft encounters a deadly lifeform.Alien is the ultimate sci-fi horror mashup that revolutionized the two genres and created a pop-culture sensation. It has all the thematic elements of cyberpunk – MUTHER, the AI-computer that controls the ship and only parcels out information on the need-to-know basis to the expendable crew; ASH, the evil android that is jeopardizing the safety of the crew because he's following orders from the Company – WEYLAND-YUTANI, the evil multi-national corporation that wants the xenomorph for their bio-weapons division – to the design of the bio-mechanical planetoid that pulses with xenomorphic dread. If cosmic horror is defined as “the terror of the unknowable and incomprehensible”, then ALIEN fits it like a glove.So, do me a favor – it's time to access your cranial jacks, boot up your Ono-Sendai Cyberspace 7, and slap on your damn mirror-shades. You know what time it is!

Send us a textAs we blast off into our 4th Season here at Fabulous Film and Friends, and with the recent release of Alien Romulus, we thought it only fitting to take a look at ALL the Alien movies, minus the execrable Alien v. Predator films, starting with 1979's Alien directed by Ridley Scott and starring Sigourney Weaver, Tom Skerritt, Harry Dean Stanton, Yaphett Koto, John Hurt, Veronica Cartright and Ian Holm followed by 1986's Aliens, directed by James Cameron and starring Sigourney Weaver again, joined by Michael Biehn, Bill Paxton, Lance Henrickson, Carrie Ann Henn, William Hope, Jeanette Goldstein, Mark Rolston Al Matthews, and Paul Reiser. Then we get 1992's Alien 3 directed by David Fincer, starring Weaver once again, with Charles S. Dutton, Charles Dance, Ralph Brown, Pete Postelwaite, Brian Glover, Holt MccAllany, Lance Henrickson and a veritable slew of bald British day players yelling, "You bloody wanker!" Then there's 1997's Alien Resurrection directed by Jean-Pierre Jeunet starring Ms. Weaver, Winona Ryder, Ron Perlman, Dan Hedaya, Brad Dourif, JE Freeman, Kim Flowers Gary Dourdan, Dominique Pinon and Michael Wincott. Then there's a long break in the actual franchise with the aforementioned cash-grabs Alien v. Predator films thrown in the mix and the series starts up again in earnest with 2012's Ridley Scott directed prequel Prometheus starring Noomi Rapace, Michael Fassbender, Charlize Theron, Idris Elba, Logan Marshall Green, Sean Harris, Rafe Spall, and Guy Pierce. In 2017 we're treated to Alien Covenant, once again directed by Ridley Scott starring Michael Fassbender, Katherine Waterston, Billy Cruddup, Danny McBride, Callie Hernandez, Carmen Ejogo, Guy Pearce, everybody's favorite prankster, Jussie Smollet and blink and you'll miss them cameos by Noomi Rapace and James Franco. Which leads us to 2024's Alien Romulus directed by Fede Alvarez and starring Callie Spaeny, David Jonsson, Isabella Merced, Archie Renaux, Aileen Wu, Spike Fearn and a posthumus Ian Holm. I'm your host Gino Caputi and the guests today are Burton Brown, David Johnson, DMD, Joe Field. With seven movies to cover we're going to get right into it, with one synopsis. Alien movies started off about a crew of space miners serving on the enormous mining vessel the Nostromo who while in cryosleep on their return to Earth with their minerals and ore in tow, are given orders to stop on the planet LV-426 to investigate a distress signal coming from a derelict spacecraft. While investigating the phenomena the crew inadvertently bring an alien on board their vessel. The Alien picks off the crew one by one and it is only warrant officer Ripley who survives by destroying the Nostromo and ultimately shooting the alien out into space. An internet meme sums it up thusly:Alien 1 - A team of miners faces an AlienAliens - A team of marines faces a lot of AliensAlien 3 - A group of convicts faces one AlienAlien Resurrection - A team of pirates face 5 AliensPrometheus - A team of scientists inadvertently create the AlienAlien Covenant - A team of colonists face a a lot of AliensAlien Romulus - A team of babyfaced Gen Z 'ers face  a lot of AliensWhich is Queen of the Hive? Find out!Watch the podcast on Youtube:https://youtu.be/gdZKUp7IM38

The Movie Madness Podcast is celebrating its 500th episode with a conversation 20 years in the making. Erik Childress has had many conversations with his guest over the years, but this one is a look back at where Nick Digilio and him were in their lives in 2004 when they, respectively, named Sideways and Garden State as their favorite films of that year. They talk about why those films were so personal to them, almost exactly ten years apart in their respective ages, at the time and if revisiting them two decades later is the same experience. The conversation veers into personal struggles, “manic pixie dream girls”, lost opportunities and soundtracks.

Send us a Text Message.Katie and Bridget go and plant some flowers (since this movie doesn't have any) as they re-watch: Garden State! It's a movie that checks all the quirky bingo boxes INCLUDING having your star be Zach Braff! Come along as we meet Andrew, an emotionally stunted man who is traveling back to his home state of New Jersey for his paraplegic Mother's funeral! Oh did we mention that he had accidently caused his Mom's paraplegia? By pushing her when he was 9 years old and she accidently hit her neck? Then his Dad (who's also his psychiatrist) decided to send him away for years and years to boarding schools so they didn't have to live with him anymore? ...Yeah it's all kind of messed up! But when Andrew meets Sam, a woman who does not have brain damage but does have a pet semetary in her backyard, he discovers what it means to truly feel things again! Released in 2004, it was written and directed by Zach Braff who stars alongside Natalie Portman, Peter Sarsgaard, and Ian Holm.

This week Will, Ian & Nora decide to escape their lives, they're gonna pull one last salvage heist. But, the crew, maybe they won't make it.

When you're getting into the concepts of SOME BULLSHIT TOMORROWs many classic literary interpretations have stood the test of time. It's felt “1984” a few times this month and today's selection is no different but perhaps it feels a little closer in its mediocre society. Things are cluttered, disconnected and cartoonishly inept. Life lived under paperwork and forms in drab buildings, some of them you hope you never see inside of. The best of your reality is in your dreams but when the faces in your dreams appear in reality then you just might see a chance to rise above the drab world. A creative tour de force by Terry Gilliam early in his “post Python” film career, it remains a visually impressive work of humor and devastation that stands out amongst his unique filmmaking career. When talking about dystopia on film it's hard not to include Gilliam's 1985 film “BRAZIL” starring Jonathan Pryce, Kim Greist, Robert De Niro, Ian Holm, Michael Palin, Bob Hoskins & Katherine Helmond to name a few. There is some good in this world. Good men who want to help. Good people who want to care for their neighbors. Can they make it in this very familair ultra-propagandized society? God willing, return I will to Old Brazil.

In 1979, director Ridley Scott got caught up in the “Star Wars” hype and knew he needed to direct a space movie. That movie ended up being “Alien.” Now 45 years later, the Alien franchise is still alive and kicking with the new movie, “Alien: Romulus.” In this latest installment, we start out on a space mining planet with our main character, Rain, played by Cailee Spaeny. She's trying to find a way off this hazardous planet, to a better planet, with her “brother” Andy who is really a synthetic her Dad programmed to protect her. She then is presented with a plan to get them off the planet by her friend Tyler, which is to fly up to another ship floating above the planet and use that to escape. All of them get up there, along with some others in the group, only to realize it's not a ship. It's a seemingly deserted massive scientific space station. They move forward with their plan to find some cryo-pods to use for them to cryo-sleep they're way to the new planet but you know what they say about best laid plans. Little do they know that this space station isn't deserted, it's a graveyard. The reason it is, is still on board and this group unintentionally unleash it and its a nightmare from there. Soon Rain and the group are being chased down by alien face huggers looking to implant their alien seed. On top of that they have another synthetic trying to secure some corporate research from the space station and if humans have to die for it, so be it. The group aren't allowed off the space station until this mission is complete, all the while, having to try not to get killed or impregnated by killer aliens before the space station crashes. Is it good enough to blast off out of your house to go see? Check out this episode to find out. “Alien: Romulus” also stars David Jonsson, Archie Renaux, Isabela Merced, Spike Fearn, Aileen Wu, Rosie Ede, Soma Simon, Bence Okeke, Viktor Orizu, Robert Bobroczkyi, Trevor Newlin, Annemarie Griggs, Ian Holm and Daniel Betts.  Support the Show.Feel free to reach out to me via:@MoviesMerica on Twitter @moviesmerica on InstagramMovies Merica on Facebook

The story follows a group of young colonists who find themselves trapped on a remote and hostile planet. As they struggle to survive, they soon discover that they are not alone—an ancient and deadly threat is lurking in the shadows. The film focuses on themes of survival, fear, and the unknown, delivering intense and thrilling moments that keep viewers on the edge of their seats.

Click here to try it out!Welcome back to Bad Dads Film Review! Today, we're delving into David Cronenberg's eXistenZ (1999). While the film presents some intriguing ideas about the fusion of reality and virtual gaming worlds, our consensus is that it feels somewhat undercooked, particularly when measured against Cronenberg's usually visceral and visually striking standards. eXistenZ introduces a future where video games are plugged directly into players via organic ports. We follow Allegra Geller, portrayed by Jennifer Jason Leigh, a celebrated game designer who, after surviving an assassination attempt, must delve into her own creation alongside Ted Pikul, played by Jude Law, to evade her attackers.As Allegra and Ted navigate the game, the boundaries between the game's universe and their reality blur. This should create a tantalizing narrative, yet somehow, the execution doesn't quite hit the mark. The transitions between layers of reality are intriguing but lack the depth and impact one might expect from such a concept.While eXistenZ pitches a captivating premise about the dangers and allure of immersive technologies, the exploration of these themes feels somewhat surface-level. The film toys with philosophical depth but doesn't dive as deeply as it could into the murky waters of reality versus virtuality.Known for his ability to shock and provoke with vivid imagery and corporeal horror, Cronenberg's subtler approach in eXistenZ leaves fans of his gore and shock factor a bit wanting. The biotechnological interfaces and creatures, although creatively conceived, don't carry the visceral impact seen in his other works like Videodrome or The Fly.For viewers intrigued by the blend of technology and narrative, eXistenZ offers enough to spark interest, particularly for older teens keen on science fiction and virtual realities. However, it may not satisfy those looking for a deeper, more finished exploration of its themes or expecting the stomach-churning visual flair typical of Cronenberg's films.Why It's Worth a Watch Despite its shortcomings, eXistenZ is worth watching for its original concept and as a piece of the broader Cronenberg canon. It stands as an interesting, albeit flawed, examination of where technology could take us and the potential consequences of living between worlds.So, join us as we plug into eXistenZ, dissecting what works, what doesn't, and how it fits into the larger landscape of technological thrillers. Whether you're revisiting or experiencing it for the first time, there's plenty to unpack in this ambitious but not fully realized venture.

Grab Jonesy the cat and prep the explosives because we're celebrating the 45th anniversary of Ridley Scott's Alien (1979). This film is all about reproduction and gender (roles) from Sigourney Weaver's iconic performance as Ripley to the male rape of Kane to the evolving form of the Alien. It's also an incredible technical feat, a take-down of capitalism, and why you should never trust Ian Holm when he's dissecting. Questions? Comments? Snark?
