The Adventures of Buckaroo Banzai Across the 8th Dimension (1984)
"No matter where you go, there you are." But what fucking year is it, ActionBabyz?? When does this goddamn movie take place? If someone doesn't tell Stanger the exact year THE ADVENTURES OF BUCKAROO BONZAI ACROSS THE 8th DIMENSION is set in he's gonna lose his little mind.

This movie was written by a mountain of cocaine
Stanger is right to call out the year lol. The movie’s world building is so confusing we don’t even know if this is an alt dimension or present day. No idea. 🤷🏻♂️
Hell yeah
Surprised that the whole "California playing New Jersey" only got a passing shitting-on.
when Marvel reboots the Xmen they should take a note from this movie: piles of characters it's hard to keep track of, they look crazy, super wild stuff coming out of nowhere not followed through, people shocking people, aliens, incredible sets most but not all of the time, etc
Growing up in houston, there's nothing but worker's trucks juryrigged to fit the most amount of tools and equipment as possible. Drive on i45 and you'll see so much shit on the road that fell off
I usually don’t bother watching the movies, especially if I’ve already seen them, but I’m happy I watched this one and now sad that they never made the sequel.
They're being pretty mean to Stanger in this one.
My entirely legitimate theory: they are mad that he stole their thunder by getting a dog of his own, and are now prodding him to blow-up on mic so they have an excuse to fire him. #stangerdanger
I have to agree with Stanger on this movie. It’s got so many cool, weird, and funny moments. But in the end, just doesn’t land. I kinda liked the idea of it when I was a kid seeing random scenes, but in total it’s just a mess
I saw this stoned in a near-empty theater, didn't understand any of it and had trouble staying awake. All I remember is Jeff Goldblum in the cowboy outfit and thinking Weller looked kind of lame playing the guitar.
That’s why trump is pushing the hydroxychloroquine so hard. It’s a big word he can remember.
It's only a matter of time before he forgets and starts suggesting that everyone take "hydroxycut"
Rodgers at the beginning: “I fuckin’ love this movie, guys.” Rodgers at the end: “We’re basically at the end of this fuckin’ bullshit.”
Overthruster!
Never prepped for an ABZ WP by watching a movie, but I have never seen Buckaroo Banzai. Watched it with my 10 year old. his verdict: “what the hell is going on!?!”
What even is this movie?
Stanger coming in with some heavy Kyle Reese energy.
I came to say this. Well done.
“Flew too close to the slun” classic stanger
Do you guys like croutons???
This film has always felt like a 2000 AD or Heavy Metal story come to life. I feel it influenced Grant Morrison and Warren Ellis.
why didnt it email me?
Yeah Action Boyz do some tech support for the website you own: Patreon
I have that tattooed on me! I love this movie since I was a kid!
Best end credit sequence. All films should end that way.
It had such an impact on me the first time. Didn't they do it in "The life aquatic" too?
