Fifth Element - Zorg

[ffcloud34]

Bilbo and Sirius Black?

[Trashcansam123]

I would never have guessed this guy is Gary Oldman.

[eyeseer1]

Zorg is subjective and a word scramble to "Gores". Oldman stated his voice was an imitation to 1992 president loss Ross Perot.

[MowgliX]

@eyeseer1 Haha, that's great!!!! I didn't now that. He *does* sound a lot like Ross Perot!

[NWOareScum]

@eyeseer1 - zorg is a well-known name for an alien invader, when i was at school anyway in comics and talk people'd say someone was a zorg or xorg.

it's also zog, with the R from the rennes les chateau paintings...

[Theburn77]

He sounds like he's doing a Jodie Foster impression

[tontsa911]

Gary looks so damn young here...

[RedJoe10]

Two great British actors, its almost like watching a friendly battle between them.

[DoNotCiv]

Great scene but this is not how evil truly operates.

The true psychopath, whether in a corporation, government, church, etc., will go to GREAT lengths to keep their psychopathy concealed. Stalin for example was said to have a charming avuncular manner, hence the nickname "Uncle Joe." So Hollywood gets this wrong. The truly evil want more than anything to be considered "normal." They practice in front of the mirror, take acting lessons, whatever, so that people can't see the monster inside.

[MrCitizenXII]

@DoNotCiv Well also that applies to the fact that people see Good vs. Evil in different ways. But Stalin never tried to conceal his psycopathy. He murdered his own people without mercy. But back to the point. To a murderer or child molester, they are perfectly normal. Or in some cases, they are the "good" guys. But of course to society they are scum. But you know, Evil is live spelled backwards!!!XD

[DoNotCiv]

@MrCitizenXII Oh yes he did. Look at how he turned on the charm with Churchill, Roosevelt, and most of all Eisenhower. Eisenhower was completely fooled by Stalin. He couldn't imagine in his wildest dreams that there were Gulags in the USSR many times worse than Hitler's death camps. Churchill wised up towards the end of the war but the were all taken in by Stalin's charm.

[MrCitizenXII]

@DoNotCiv And when I said they are the good guys, I meant to them, they see themselves as the good guys.:P

[BobMillahhh]

Everyone's all over Gary Oldman's nuts... Ian Holm is a god among men as well, people.

[JRO1646]

When I saw Gary Oldman in the starting credits I was looking for him throughout the the whole film and was unable to find him. When I saw he played Zorg I was like O.o

[AtrusDent]

Zorg don't give a fuck about your bitch-ass fallacies. He's fuckin' Zorg!

[SuprGT]

You're a monster Zorg!

I know.....

[RetardedAnime]

His sense of fashion is revolting

[susannaaaa]

@RetardedAnime Hush your mouth! All that rubber. Mmmm.

[RetardedAnime]

haha well i guess they all have quite a sense of fashion. blame society.

[SethBlizzard]

I can see Bowser saying this speech to Mario.

[The0voice0from0above]

@SethBlizzard haha :P

[redmarch]

Saw this in theater's in 1997 with my dad. Seen it a trillion times since then and it never ever gets old. Luc Besson is a genius?

[helloTobi40]

he got owned by a cherry >:l

[phirephate]

Why does Zorg remind me of Hitler?

[labellenaturelle]

@phirephate Maybe because his beard looks like an upside-down Hitler moustache? :P

[BeaveHolio]

Keynesian economics explained.

[kydenj28]

@BeaveHolio That's why i looked for this clip, cause I was thinking the same thing.

[Timasion]

I wonder if they're trying to be ironic with the Broken Window Fallacy. The glass being broken?

The name is French and the person who asserted the Broken Window Fallacy was also French.

[raystinsky]

Zorg is a Keynesian!

[SalandFindles]

I watched this movie every single day my Sophomore year in high school and memorized the script, word-for-word.

[THX1146]

You need stones.yep

[redarrowhead2]

EVERY1

[jesscaused]

GARY OLDMAN KICKS ASS!!! HE DESERVES AN OSCAR OR TWO OR THREE! THANK YOU FOR POSTING :)

[badazzfeliciano]

gary oldman and daniel daylewis are one of the bests actors

[marta20vg]

i just love gary oldman! he gives life to every character he acts! he is a freakin genious!!!!! i just wish for all new actors to look up to gary oldman, cuz basically their acting SUCKS! gary, go on and teach those kids some acting

[MuonRay]

Why would Zorg have a button to activate a life preserver in his office?

[MsKeepcalmcarryon]

Fave scene from fave movie. I still remember this word for word. Scary. This is what turned me on to Oldman

[susannaaaa]

@MsKeepcalmcarryon Me too. I was 11.

[seeriktus]

Thing is I actually agree with Zorg here...

[imanolchristian21]

WOW! It's Commissioner James Gordon/Sirius Black meets Bilbo Baggins.

[RyukoAkari]

Yay Ian Holm! Go Bilbo go!

[daas8214]

poor elephant!!!

[inamarel]

This is such a fun movie and I love Gary Oldman and Bruce Willis!

[vampout]

"You're a monster, Zorg."

*little smirk* "I know."

[mrBelfegorr]

Dracula,Leòn and 5 element

[malonemuert]

Oldman is my favorite actor - so great,

[Xenar17]

The 5'th Element was one of my favorite movies when I was little.

I feel like watching it now =)

[EventuallyWeMerge]

lol @ 2:31 the elephant looks at him like 'Wtf am I supposed to do?'

[DragonBleu01]

Gary Oldman + Luc Besson's movies = EPIC~!

Well, i'm french. This movie is my favourite because Gary, is totally perfect to play as villain. Especially "Leon: the professionnal" movie. :D

[nintendodude200]

Ah, this movie holds a place atop my "favorite movies of all time" list. :3

[Onerom4728]

6 persons choked with a berry

[GiuliaLennon94]

What a lovely English accent <3 _ <3 !!!!

[juliabohemian]

Gary Oldman is so talented.

[GiuliaLennon94]

@juliabohemian Yeah.. I think he deserved an Oscar so much ç.ç

[Maddolis]

@GiuliaLennon94 If I recall correctly he'll be starring in a 2011/2012 film so he should have a good chance there. The shame is the academy won't recognize him because he's always in these supporting roles.

[GiuliaLennon94]

@Maddolis But poor Gary ç.ç If he'll win the oscar, it could be "not the first"...He should be given the oscars for "Dracula", "Léon", "Fifth Element"... EVERY film *-*

[Maddolis]

@GiuliaLennon94 Heh precisely. I don't care for the Oscars but he should have 5 by now.

[GiuliaLennon94]

@Maddolis Yeah =__=".. poor guy..!!! Anyway, we love him ^^ that's important xD

[Kareragirl]

@Maddolis They don't really acknowledge his work because the Academy's also about publicity and stuff.

Gary doesn't even have a publicist as he's a very private person.

[PurpleCloud619]

It seems that Zorgs ego got the best of him, if I do say so myself.

[Theburn77]

I love how this is supposed to be hundreds of years in the future and he has that random Southern accent

[asdfers]

@Theburn77

I guess The South rose again.

[Josh360]

ahhh the so called art dealer!

[Kotori32]

"You're a monster, Zorg!"

"I know."

[zigawarp]

Commissioner Gordon?

[steppinoutstudios]

"Oh, father...you're SO wrong..."

[MrsLedgerDepp]

Gary Oldman's sooo great genius actor!!!

[Markynaz]

Choking on a cherry while getting lectured by an old priest...Zorg you got owned...HARD. lol

[oldmanwithers1]

holy fuck the 90's ruled.

[IITallikaII]

That is the creepiest fucking skyline I have ever seen in a film, not the yellow sky helps.

[SpawnRevenge92]

I love how basically Gary Oldman uses a different voice for every movie he does.

A great, underappreciated actor.

[Ryosuke1208]

@SpawnRevenge92 I think he usess sometimes a similar voice on the movie Leon The professional hehe

[JonnyRic07]

I love all the random shit that Zorg's desk has lol

[DjVerroxi]

Lmao Hell yeah Elephant-thing.

[nathaniel9871]

the best part is when barbecue sauce leaks out of his head

[quidproquo2004]

Now that's a villain!

[bilashhossain]

haha this guy made the movie

[thaboss32]

he doesnt have an oscar why?

[Siriusiana]

@thaboss32 Because Oscar sucks. Gary Oldman rocks. Contrariety.

[cartmanfan0316]

I take it that Zorg hasn't learned about the Broken Window Fallacy.

[YourPalHDee]

@cartmanfan0316 It's sort of arguable that this isn't applicable to the Broken Window Fallacy. Because obviously, He has broken his own glass. I think just because the Broken Window Fallacy exists, doesn't make it true. Money doesn't always get spread around without proper motivation for somebody to do so.

This is besides the point anyway, Gary Oldman is an incredible actor, that is the only conclusion that should be drawn from this video.

[canofsand]

@YourPalHDee You can think whatever you want. The fallacy is explained very, very well, and no one has ever countered it in a logical fashion, despite many greater minds than either of us giving it a try. History and common sense dictate that progress is more than enough motivation for money to move around. Fixing what's been needlessly broken does not contribute anything to the whole.

[AeacusVrnm]

Is that Marilyn Manson?

[Pandeneer]

Thumbs up if you didn't notice that this was serious black or gordon from the dark knight.

[darkcyeote]

in more movies that I can remember there is a moment that could save everyone a world of hassle and hurt

I only hope if I ever get a moment like that in my life I'll let the dude choke to death

[grayinu]

Why does he have such unless shit in his desk?

[fetalalien1369]

One of the most underrated movie villians of all time.

[hubbahwah]

"I'm in fact encouraging life."

[napalmcoffee]

Zorg for prez

[Wraythhmark]

A name like Jean Baptiste Emmanuel Zorg, with a Texas twang, the Ziggy Stardust getup and the Hitler 'stache and haircut.

I think this is Gary Oldman at his most WTF. Yes, I've seen Prick Up Your Ears. Yes, it's exactly what it sounds like.

[aliaemar22]

Tricky and Gary Oldman..that can't go wrong:)

[lexusdominus]

"water, fruit; A cherry"

[thomante]

Reminder: Backspell ZORG by one, separating the quiet from the loud.

[captivatedlady]

'Why, what's wrong with me?"

I love the way he says that. His regular accent is beautiful but you have to love all the ones he puts on in movies.

Zorg is just really hot, end of story lol

[mocodepito]

This is more like it .. the slideshow 'tributes' were getting on my last living nerve!

[AnnaAnomaly]

Gary looks oddly sexy in this scene...

And he's an amazing actor....An English gent speaking with a southern accent...that amazes me for some reason...

[djscottyis]

If you watch the 2 man dressed in Black in the background 1 of them is 5 times Mr universe Eddie Ellwood

[MRRWJ2]

Gary Oldman

One Epic villan that he'll put all the villans from every movie on the street.

[helloTobi40]

does any one know the name of that song that starts to play wen he shoking? plz some one tell me T~T

[IAINoodle]

fucking lord

had no idea this was oldman hahaharrr no way

fantastic film

well ahead of it's time

especially with the taxi scenes

[godofmajora]

Gary oldmans Oscar for me. Oscar for the best villain of the mellenia.

THUMBS UP IF YOU AGREE

[ShadowSonic2]

Wow, Ian Holm really owned Zorg with just a few sentences. It's one thing to have the villain give off one of their "psycho speeches" and be all Hannibal Lecter, but it's good writing that allows the hero to totally demolish their speech in a way that isn't lame.

[IggyHazard]

At the same time, he proves that the Chaos Theory might just as well work against him when he chokes on the cherry since he couldn't have predicted that. Then again, he could have simply been more careful. Then again (again), he could have simply Heimlich'd himself. What exactly did he expect the elephant thing to do for him, though?

\8-P

[IggyHazard]

What he says actually makes perfect sense from both an idealist and realist perspective, both artistic and scientific simultaneously at the same time. Hail Invader Zorg!

By the way, I want a pet mini-elephant thing like the one Invader Zorg has! XD

[Rorschach187]

gary oldman for the spiderman reboot!!!!!

[redkill07]

The oscars are not worthy of Gary Oldman.

[plamsitybg]

HE DESERVES OSCAR

[uteowl]

I loved finding this online. It describes perfectly the business I work in and have tried numerous times to use it to explain to people what I do. Now I can just come on to Youtube and show them. I was just doing a training session for a new employee and used it. What a hoot!

[kristbjorg999]

Gary Oldman should have been nominated for thousands of roles and should have won all of them. I mean just look at him in Leon, 5th Element, and last but not least Immortal Beloved, he becomes Beethoven. Gary Oldman you ROCK bigtime EVERYtime :)

[JBTheMovies]

Tricky is so dope

[Trinitrotoluo]

Villains are usually hated and unlikable but this guy is awesome even though he creates insane weapons (ZF-1) and kills innocent people due to boredom! he is just... awesome :D

[thechewydude]

Gary Oldman is one of the greatest contemporary actors! :)

He's still not as well acknowledged as he deserves.

Love the film as well, seen it many times :)

[simon1234simon]

MAN movies in the 90s were WAAAAY better than now

[Shotgun93Steve]

@simon1234simon Are you sure you don't mean the 80's movies were better than they are now?

[olgibius]

I know...He is SUCH a good actor,he deserves one Oscar(at least).He has played so many good roles!!! It's not fair.......

[gogeta999994]

umm at 1:00

[Joecbg100]

Ian Holm at 2:28, the heck is that thing?

[NailStrafer]

His pet?

[RyanR3volution]

Its funny how such a evil man has such a cute thing in his desk, screw the dog I want that.

[HisDivineShadow245]

Zorg is the best example of the insane supervillain. :)

[dik12in]

I'm sure this was the idea behind the oil spill. And yes I'm suggesting the spill was intentional. If you think it was an accident, then may your blind obedience earn you a slave of the month award someday.

[chitoryu12]

Sounds like a BP executive.

[walterflazarz]

0:48 

[rfan]

Zorg's pet is awesome LOL

[Bossness123]

gary oldmans a badass

[Joecbg100]

The accent cracks me up, and he's an awesome actor, character, etc. Gary Oldman is GREAT. I like his Smith role in LOS.

[shadycargo1977]

Aaww, the Roombas are so cute!

[BatJoker007]

"You saved my life. And in return I'll spare yours... for now."

I love that: Save his life and Zorg won't kill/ torture you like he planned to. But don't "bring him his Stones" or "get on the plane" & he'll blow you up. What a simplistic fella.

[TuningAnApple]

I swear Zorg looks like Tow Mater from Cars.

[gooznr1]

i like his air it looks like jelawolfs hair

[DFILMS09]

I cant believe thats Jim Gordon right there haha

[BFC2011]

Broken Window Fallacy from Zorg. Sad.

[pinz2022]

@BFC2011

Yeah, the Broken Window theory is a fallacy all right, but it works great for the politically well-connected.

If Zorg's bribed cronies in government have given Zorg the exclusive contract for fixing those broken windows then Zorg has every reason to arrange for them being broken...

[mikrovalovka]

he made his character so beastly, i hate him when he says '..destroyed' and '.you're so wrong'. amazing actor

[ukevergil]

"All because of one...little...chery."

They're both so awesome. XD

[jajcarzek]

When I first time look Zorg im say "oh shit, Adolf Hitler" XD

[Kallypsoo]

Vilains rocks <3

[Blackthorne369]

"There you see now how all your power counts for absolutely nothing. How your entire empire of destruction comes crashing down all because of one little cherry." Epic line and beautifully delivered. They has such great actors in this film, why did it not receive a little more acclaim?

[marvelmax03191]

love the southern accent!

[IDrocAI]

...or their children maybe lol

[djmaui]

how gay were those guard's uniform??

[Ameican87eagle]

WAR it's all business no purpose. I can't believe that is gary oldman

[ThumbsUpMike]

cherries ftw!

[missarahlovesyou]

JEAN BAPTISTE

EMANUEL

ZORG

[Josh360]

the so called Art Dealer!

[KEINAANDKELLY]

the elephant don't give a shit

[hagenberlin]

@KEINAANDKELLY : Hahaha, That's right

[Saromatae]

Zorgs argument about destruction is based loosely on Frederic Bastiat's "Parable of the broken window". or "Broken window fallacy". Interesting stuff look it up on Wikipedia.

I won't go into it here but there are actually several philosophical ideas expressing in The Fifth Element. Science fiction has the advantage of being able to explore these ideas by divorcing them from circumstances we may be biased about.

Oh yes almost forgot, Gary Oldman kicks ass!

[wwgt]

Agreed !!

I think this film stands out ...in so many ways

Gary ,,O...makes the film ..

ZORG !!!

[Strauss234]

Who is going to help you now?

-EVEEERYYOONEE!

[rumrnr78]

@Strauss234

Classic reference from another great Besson/Oldman movie!

[maxpower789z]

A cherry!

[bewarethenemo]

"Look at all these little things! So busy now!" lol I love that....epic movie!

[WishYouWereHere87]

cheers

[Zwubby222]

I love this part. 2:22-2:50

[lylymad]

Gary Oldman is the best actor I've ever seen but it's sad that nowadays he only works for blockbusters or turkeys where he can't show his real talent.

I think he got his best roles during the 90s

[Kallypsoo]

"You're a monster Zorg"

"I know"

oh dear :)

[Joecbg100]

What a weird haircut, aw well he's hilarious, Gary Oldman.

[audifaxcimeski]

"water" "fruit" "a cherry" lmao everything in this scene is so unpredictable!

[lukrecja89]

lmao what a hilarious scene.

I laugh every time I watch this

[MovieCreep96]

epic-ness

[Acanaceous]

"You're a monster, Zorg."

"...I know."

Now, that's what I like in a villain: self-awareness.

[Shotgun93Steve]

@Acanaceous Agreed. Every villain should be aware yet perfectly fine of how harsh their actions are. Doing so would make them appear much more evil to the audience.

[Saromatae]

I really like Oldman in this and this is is great film, one of my favorites. But one of my very favorite Oldman roles is the bad guy Stansfield in Léon, or it is called The Professional in the US. Another Luc Besson flick too. The way Oldman bites down on those capsules before killing that family, pure genius.

Stansfield barking orders

Stansfield: Go get everyone!

Crony: What do you mean everyone?

Stansfield: EVERYYYYONE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!!!!!!

(veins popping out)

Pure genius.

[MagicAccent]

"Or their children, maybe?"

Lol, epic

[VampyFreakRawr]

"You're a monster Zorg!"

"I KNOW!"

xDD

one of the best quotes ever xDD

[MCTales89]

Is there a reason why Gary Oldman hasn't won Oscar? He deserves on AT THE VERY LEAST!!!

[MovieCreep96]

because the academy is made up of a bunch of slack-jawed morons.

[neocoders]

@MCTales89 Gary Oldman is too cool for an oscar

[bomksh247]

best villian ever. great as stanfield in leon the proffesional

[huggkruka]

I forgot how ridiculously awesome Oldman's accent is in this movie.
