Total classics! Big Trouble has some great lines. Too bad sequels were never made for both of these films. Though, there was talk of making Buckaroo Banzai a TV series. Still in limbo, I believe.

Still in limbo, I believe.I love BTILC. My favorite part is in the beginning when Jack is driving in the dark with pouring rain. He is wearing super-dark sunglasses and talking to himself on the CB.
That movie is neat!

LMAO!!!
Man, I LOVE LOVE LOVE "Fantastic Voyage!" I saw it at a drive-in movie, I was 14, and I thought it was incredible. Loved the special effects which now look as hokey as the day is long, but I still LOVE it.

When some wild-eyed, eight-foot-tall maniac grabs your neck, taps the back of your favorite head up against the barroom wall, looks you crooked in the eye and asks you if ya paid your dues, you just stare that big sucker right back in the eye, and you remember what ol' Jack Burton always says at a time like that: "Have ya paid your dues, Jack?" "Yessir, the check is in the mail."
KRW- I love that movie!

"Why not?"
"You're melting all the stuff!"
The last great Steve Martin film, IMO.

Several Steve Martin movies are among my favs of all time:
All of Me
The Man With Two Brains
Parenthood
But, sadly, you're right, Dave. He hasn't been hysterically funny in a long, long time.

Oh, do you like My Blue Heaven? Me too. But this is not his last great movie. Have you ever seen "The Out-of Towners"? That was pretty funny.

Big Trouble in Little China! I remember that movie, yeah I liked it. Japanese title was "Ghost Hunters"......What the hell?
