        5th Element is dreadful. Sunshine I've not seen (but brother said is dreadful). The other two are OK.

                      Yep. Pure science fiction and one of the most original plots ever written. And funny as hell. I'm no big Tim Allen fan, but he was perfect as the jaded, b-grade actor living off his wacko fan base suddenly swept into playing the role for real by a very confused bunch of aliens.

                      Chaining ourselves to the moral high ground does not make us good guys. Aside from making us easy targets, it merely makes us idiotic prisoners of our own self loathing.

                            I saw this in 1964 as The Invasion Of The Body Snatchers. Loved it. Got the VHS when it was released as the "Original Invasion Of The Body Snatchers". Hated it. Someone edited the sound track.
