I love this movie!!!
I love this movie. Even though they really not play on his Japanese-American heritage any. It would of been more interesting if they did. I love the sceen with kid with the M-16 and how he just too the 20 spot.

=:)

The cheese is only half the story
How did this movie ever get made? God only knows. It is not good. Not at all.

But it is so perfectly un-good that you just can take your eyes off it. And I agree, you need to watch it several times to really get the full effect.

Yeah for Buckaroo!
One of my all time favorites, it needs to be watched several times to catch everything.

where are they now? featuring: hanoi xan
... it's a rhetorical question, of course, but why are we re-making hack B-movies when a perfectly good cult film lays to ruin?

(clue: cult film = low box-office revenue & unforeseen DVD sales. also known to involve conventions & well-quoted lines, perfectly harmless but somewhat delusional character decoration by fans, and never, ever a sequel.)

this one's a top-runner for the following line alone: "We don't have to be mean because, remember, no matter where you go, there you are. ."

but just in case you're unfamiliar, there are loads & loads of memorable adages/quipps but here's just a sampling:

Buckaroo Banzai: You can check your anatomy all you want, and even though there may be normal variation, when it comes right down to it, this far inside the head it all looks the same. No, no, no, don't tug on that. You never know what it might be attached to.

General Catburd: The man's been through solid matter, for crying out loud. Who knows what's happened to his brain? Maybe it's scrambled his molecules. All I'm saying is, Mr. President, let's not panic.

Lord John Whorfin: Take her to the Pitt. Go, Big-booty. Use more honey. Find out what she knows.

John Ganty: John Valuk is dead, he fell on his head. But perhaps John Parker will get through with our message to Buckaroo Banzai.

Penny Priddy: You're like Jerry Lewis, you give me hope to carry on, then you leave me in the lurch while you strap on your six-guns...

Mission Control: Buckaroo, The White House wants to know is everything ok with the alien space craft from Planet 10 or should we just go ahead and destroy Russia?

Lectroid: We are not in the Eighth dimension, we are over New Jersey. Hope is not lost.

John Bigboote: BigbooTAY!
SOD McKinley: I don't give a flying handshake what your name is.

Lord John Whorfin: History is-a made at night. Character is what you are in the dark. - maemae , posted 04/11/07
