Band named Blush Response with singer that looks like Rachel

Hey I was just at amazon.com and I found this band named after
the Vangelis track "Blush Response". The lead singer is hot and looks
like Rachel(Sean Young). You can download their song for free at this link

www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/B0006ST ... 2-7171963-
9043308

P.S. did anyone notice that the actor that played Leon is in The Fifth Element?

I loved 5th Element. A movie made just for fun.
A different view of the future, instead of the typical Blade Runner rip-off.

Here's some trivia for you :

Blade Runner has a character named Leon
Leon played by Brion James
Brion James plays commander in Fifth Element
Fifth Element directed by Luc Besson
Luc Besson also directed movie called Leon(called "Leon" in Europe & "The Professional" in the USA)

Luc Besson is one of my favorite directors (Leon, Big blue, Fifth Element, Nikita ect) and Leon is one of my favorite movies, i also wanna say that i always enjoy Gary Oldman (a personal favorite) Jean Reno and Luc Besson seems to get along very well, Jean Reno can be seen in Leon, The big Blue and Nikita.

No. No big stars at least.

Although Ian Holm (Priest Vito Cornelius) did play synthetic humanoid Ash in Ridley Stott's "Alien".

And of course, those flying police cars in FE look remotely familiar. :lol:

5th Element is one of those movies I HAVE to watch whenever it comes on. Just a very entertaining film.

I saw this band play in Vegas and bought one of their albums. Here's a scanned image of their CD cover. I think she's hotter than Rachael.

Oh and I really liked the set design for 5th Element.

:?

I can't understand how one can love both BR and Besson at the same time. The 5th Element was a travesty. A grotesque display of bad taste. Damn, how I hate Besson.

I'm not so sure about the grotesque display of bad taste. The 5th Element had some great ideas and some beautiful production design by Moebius, but somehow the story was a little dissapointing.
I think that Besson made some great movies like The Professional, Nikita, The Big Blue and Subway - then again he made movies like Taxi which is not exactly my cup of tea.
Loving Besson and BR at the same time is not a contridaction. Some of his movies are lovable, others are not. Personally, I'm greatful for the lovable ones and don't mind the rest.

No, but you can link it to BR quite easily:

Directly:
Moebius was supposed to do some designs for BR, being involved with Tron at the time, this was not possible, but he did some of the costume design for BR anyway.

The long way around:
The 5th Element - Besson - The Professional - Natalie Portman - Star Wars - Harrison Ford - BR.

Both "Blade Runner" and "5th Eliment" were directly influenced by Heavy Metal magazine(Metal Hurlant in France) especially Moebius....(see Future Noir pg.74 and BFI Modern Classics pg.18 ). Moebius(Jean Geraud) also did the space suit designs for "Alien". I believe Luc Besson wanted to do something even more like the magazine than BR itself. He recreated the feel of that magazine very well and I believe went away from the BR style clones that we usually see. I therefore refute any idea that 5th Eliment was basicly a BR copy since it's connection is mostly just Heavy Metal magazine and Moebius in which 5th eliment was truer to. I also very much enjoyed 5th eliment but in a totally different way than BR. One of the things that I see alot on message boards that annoys me are those sweeping statements like "that movie completely sucked"...and "worst movie ever". Every body is entitled to their opinion, and in my opinion chances are if you make a statement like that you have not opened yourself up to the full experience of the movie(or what ever)and have only seen it on a superficial level. If I stopped at my first impression of Blade Runner I would not be here today for sure.

I'm going to have to agree with luba luft - Bessen is hit or miss. I think The Fifth Element is great along with The Professional and La Femme Nikita while TAXI is just horrible.

Did anyone check out the picture Sebastian ToyMaker posted of the lead singer of Blush Response?

I saw it 2 or 3 times. The Fifth Element is not deep or profound, sorry. Anyway, it's seriously flawed. The movie doesn't know whether it wants to be taken seriously or if it's a comedy. So, it does what all bad SF does. It gets unbelievable. Towards the ending it really gets terrible. Chris Tucker is simply irritating. That whole performance with the singing diva, brrrrr. It's all so burlesque! 5/10
