| You Are Here | Home -> The Fifth Element: The Unofficial Drinking Game |
The object of any drinking game is to see how much alcohol
one can consume based on the cues outlined in said drinking game before
they pass out. Normally, it's based on somebody doing or saying something
that is done or said repeatedly throughout a movie.
This drinking game was designed with the frat-guy in
college in mind, or anybody of Irish, German, Italian or
Australian descent (in other words, those who are known for a high
tolerance of alcohol).
One fifth of Midori
One pint of Southern Comfort
Plenty of your favorite beer, preferably a microbrew
(Zima, if you can find it, doesn't count - it's not beer)
One glass of your favorite wine
One shotglass
One wine glass for the aforementioned wine
One beer glass (optional, if you get standard size bottles
of your beer)
Water, as to prevent a nasty hangover (optional)
KNOWLEDGE OF YOUR LIMITS. This is a pretty rough game, and
keep in mind here that you are mixing alcohols. Thus the water - it's
to keep you from getting a nasty hangover that lasts a week.
Shot
one full shotglass, approximately 25 mL, or one half of
one of those little bottles you would get on an airplane. This only
applies to the hard liquor.
Gulp
enough in one shot to cover two "drinks". See "drink"
below.
Drink
- however much you would normally
pull into your mouth in one shot if you were drinking something without
alcohol in it (say, orange juice).
Sip -
one half of one drink, or however
much you would pull into your mouth if you were drinking a hot beverage
such as fresh brewed coffee (and no, not after it's been sitting around
for 1/2 hour to cool off! That would be cheating!)
Every time Ruby Rhod says "Korben" - one drink
Every time Leeloo winds up in Korben's arms - a sip
Every time Korben's mother calls - two drinks, very fast (because you'd need it too)
Every time anyone mentions the stones or the elements - a gulp.
Each time Fr. Cornelius (Ian Holm's character) stutters - one sip for each, until he gets it right or is stopped.
Each time Gemini Croquets is alluded to - one drink.
Whenever Finger is mentioned - one drink.
Every time the professor in the beginning of the film says "Aziz, light!" - one drink
When the professor at the beginning of the movie proposes the toast - drink the glass of wine
Every time the evil planetoid is seen - two sips.
Every time Leeloo says "Multipass" - a sip
For each point Korben loses on his license - a sip.
Every time Zorg says "I know" - one sip
Every time General Munro gets in trouble - one drink
Every time "Save The World" is said - one shot of Southern Comfort
Every time there is a gunfight or explosion - two gulps.
