I watched the director’s extended cut and wow that cut makes it so clear that the director is a pedophile it’s disgusting. We looked up the differences after and it’s the majority of the more questionable scenes. Similarly we looked up the director’s wiki page and he’s got some gross history (see personal life)
deleted by creator
He left his 20 year old wife of four years, mother to his 4 year old child, for a 19 year old.
Insert the pedobear “too old” meme
Dicaprio over here taking notes
The normal version was bad enough in that regard
Yeah, I can’t see me watching that extended cut any time soon, I might have to leave rewatching the film for a while, a long while.
Even fifth element has pedo vibes when you realize Lilo is essentially a sexy baby toddler
Yeah, she’s the very epitome of born sexy yesterday. She literally strips in front of them because she’s too naive to understand modesty like a toddler.
“EVERYONE!”
I miss Gary Oldman’s “unhinged villain” era.
His arsehole old geezer era is pretty good though
“EHH-VVVV-REEEEE-ONEEEEEEE-UH!!!”
Fun fact about that scene: Gary Oldman wasn’t really supposed to shout it that loud, he improvised it as a joke. Which is also why you can see the other actor in the scene jump back a bit.
I actually liked the European version of the movie better because it gave more background on the characters and the story.
Movie with pedo undercurrents, made by a pedo. After you realize he’s a pedo, fifth element also makes more sense. Lilo is essentially a baby in a sexy body and everyone wants to fuck her.
Jeez…
He’s out of line, but he’s right.
I also miss my innocence from having watched a cut of Leon that made their relationship seem more innocent. Or maybe I just wasn’t looking for it.
I’ve seen the more sexual tense awkward cut scenes and theories, but watching Leon I never attributed it more than “a young girl going through puberty forced to age quickly, see her family killed, find a confidant and established a bond she’s confusing her attachment with.” in the movie I watched Leon nips that sexual relationship thread in the bud. I’ve seen the alternatives where he does allow it but I thought that was just disturbed fan theories.
Sorry to be the one to break it to you about Luc Besson I guess?
Damn, I saw a few short scenes of it and it looked interesting. Oh well, there are other good movies.
