Does anyone know for sure whether the planet is called Phloston or Fhloston? --WhiteDragon 13:44, 5 Nov 2004 (UTC)

• It's Fhloston.[1] click link (it's a copy of the script) and do a find for it. Martin TB 13:51, 5 Nov 2004 (UTC)

Do you think our current moon was also once an "ultimate evil" according to this movie? GWC Winter 34 2005 EDT 13.35

If so, then the moon is only 5,000 years old and we've only had this problem once before. So, unless the good aliens haul the garbage away, having left one behind to keep the electromagnetic field going that protects us from the sun, there is a serious plot problem of not enough moons hanging around...

I don't think the dark planet is as big as the moon but I guess it is possible that the moon represents an earlier close call, since I doubt it's always this close to world destruction. Ari 07:34, 29 Apr 2005 (UTC)

Uh...just out of curiosity, did The Fifth Element do good in the box office?- B-101 01:50, 26 Jun 2005 (UTC)

I think we should get some more images for the plot section.- JustPhil 18:22, 10 September 2005 (UTC)

How long was this movie in development-hell?

Zorg's Bomb

I believe that Zorg was blown up by the Mangalore bomb, not by his own. He disabled his at the last moment, and the Mangalores set off one that they brought on board.

Could someone verify this and possibly correct the article. - Daemon 00:46, 31 October 2005 (UTC)

Star Wars References

I heard Zorg call one of the Mangalore's a 'jedi' during the scene when they meet to exchange the stones for the weapons. Daemon 01:07, 31 October 2005 (UTC)

Fhloston

I created a new article about Fhloston Paradise and would appreciate it if some could visit it and maybe improve it, also add information? I am also trying to get an image into Wikipedia of the Fhloston Paradise Luxury Cruiser, any ideas? thanks alot... File:Gryffindor.jpgGryffindor 10:34, 8 October 2005 (UTC)

Explanation to the moon thing

Hey, White Dragon. You've got quite an interesting theory there, but I think it needs revision. First of all, I don't think they ever showed a full shot of the Earth, so maybe the actual Moon was at that time in the other side of the world. Another reason why the dark planet cannot be the Moon is that we already have a Moon and the whole movie happens somewhere in the future!

Yes, they showed a full shot of the earth. And they showed the moon when the Dark Planet was defeated. The Dark Planet looked like a craterless moon. 68.225.242.19 07:39, 12 January 2006 (UTC)

I do think the Moon could be another defeated dark planet, though... if the story was real, that is. The Moon is obviously more than 5,000 old because the Earth is more than a million years old and scientist say the Moon is even older--so the Moon wasn't created last time that whole Fifth Element "happened". However, they never said in the movie that the dark planet heads for the Earth each time this apocalypse-like event occurs... maybe that's why Saturn has so many moons! After all, the Mondoshawan were aliens. I think that's all I have to say. Au revoir!--Plavalagunanbanshee 21:13, 17 October 2005 (UTC)

While I do think they're from Jupitor, it does seem likely that a lotta rocks out there (Pluto, for instance) could be older Dark Planets. ;D 68.225.242.19 07:39, 12 January 2006 (UTC)

Unless the evidence that existed that stated that the moon is older than 5000 is a side effect of its unusual creation. Keep in mind you're dealing with a strange, powerful being of unknown prowess that seems to attempt to use Earth as a focal point for universal destruction every five thousand revolutions of the Earth. I'd wager the normal rules can be discarded in light of this. 68.225.242.19 07:36, 12 January 2006 (UTC)

how did they get leelo

the hand they use to recreate her is clutching a handle, implying that it is an alien.yet she is the fifth element, which is a statue....this does not make since — Preceding unsigned comment added by TheDude7776 (talk • contribs)

That "statue" was a sarcophagus that contained the Fifth Element, presumably in some sort of state of suspended animation, until she was needed again. I believe it is even referred to as a sarcophagus in the film. I lent my DVD to a friend, so I can't check it right now. The Mondochiwan took Leeloo in 1914 and told the priest that she would be returned "when evil returns." They were on their way back to return her when the Mangalores shot down the ship killing all of the occupants.

One thing I can't answer though is how Leeloo retained all of her thoughts and memories even though her brain was destroyed in the crash. Maybe it's somehow written into her 'perfect' genetic sequence.

I don't understand how clutching a handle implies that the hand alien. I hold the handle on a shopping cart when I use it - does that make me extraterrestrial? o.0 — Indi ^{[ talk ]} 17:38, 12 February 2006 (UTC)

Year 2257 or 2263

I notice two conflicting years. In some reviews they state 2257, yet close inspection of on-screen props (Korban's clock) it says 2263. Tertiary7 22:00, 11 February 2006 (UTC)

Fifth Element - The Game

The Fifth Element game was released for PC and Playstation. There is a problem running the PC version of the game on Windows XP. When starting the game a dialog appears with the title: "FithElement Error" [sic] and the text "The driver of a PowerVR 3D card has been detected, but the hardware couldn't be initialized." - "Please remove the file SGL.dll from your WINDOWS and WINDOWS/SYSTEM directory and try again." [Sic for the forward slash in that sentence]. There are a number of reports of this issue. The error is quite probably independent of whatever graphics card may be installed. There have been no reports of this game succesfully running on Windows XP. A number of Fifth Element game addicts are seeking a fix. The game may be played as either of the two main characters.

Keep clear

"A brief scene in Korbens apartment makes reference to the religious cult Scientology founded by science fiction writer L. Ron Hubbard. As Korben sits on his bed in the morning, he views a message stenciled onto the wall that states, "KEEP CLEAR". Reading this message Korben responds, "I'm trying"."

I thought he was replying to the cigarette dispenser. I can't remember what it said, though. PrometheusX303 01:00, 19 April 2006 (UTC)

New York Race Game

It's Says it was inspired by the film the fifth element so should this be added?
