The Adventures of Buckeroo Banzai Across the 8th Dimension.

I even wouldn't mind a reboot, except that they'd never allow it to be as committedly wierd as the original... which was why it was so great. It'd be sad to see a modern Hollywood vision treatment of the comics.

John Lithgow should also play a role in it again. He totally made the movie awesome.

Jeff Goldblum playing one of the least eccentric characters in the film was also great.

Well if we're going this route I would like to add in Kung Pow. I would've loved to see the sequel they teased at the end.

According to the director there were never plans for a sequel. It was just a joke he added to the end.

[–] mceldritch@lemmy.world 2 points 11 months ago

This. This is what I was looking for before I posted.

Just rewatched this one a few days ago. Still so much fun! And it's even got a sequel tease at the end, title and everything. :(
