'Why Is There a Watermelon There?' - a quote from Buckaroo Banzai (said, as I recall, by Jeff Goldblum's character when he sees a large watermelon in a clamp Buckaroo's enigmatic reply is 'I'll explain later.')Īll buttons are reproductions and not original film merchandise or props. Reproduction artwork of the logo seen on the side of Buckaroo Banzai's transdimensional Jet Car which can pass through solid matter thanks to the Oscillation Overthruster. The name 'Yoyodyne' is from the Thomas Pynchon novel 'The Crying of Lot 49.' The logo of the sinister Yoyodyne Propulsion Systems, founded by Lord John Whorfin. 'Where Are We Going?' 'PLANET TEN!' 'When?' 'REAL SOON!' a despairing-yet-optimistic quote from the Red Lectroids. The insignia of the most rockin' think tank in the world, Buckaroo Banzai and the Hong Kong Cavaliers.

'No Matter Where You Go, There you are' is a quote from Buckaroo Banzai himself (said as he switches the Hong Kong Cavaliers's performance from a rockin' horns selection to a wistful piano piece). 'EVIL! PURE and SIMPLE by way of the Eighth Dimension!' - a memorable quote from Buckaroo after he receives a phone call from outer space, his eyes are unbound and he can perceive the Red Lectroids as they truly are. The logo of the Banzai Institute, the only research facility cool enough to contain Buckaroo's brilliant scientific breakthrough. The logo from Buckaroo Banzai's headband, which he dons in the film just before using the Jet Car to drive through a mountain! Red Lectroids refer to humans as monkey-boys for obvious reasons. 'Laugh While You Can, Monkey-Boy!' - a quote from the sinister Lord John Whorfin, as he escapes the human insane asylum and returns to take control of the Red Lectroids.

Please feel free to cite your own favorites in the comments. Krabs.Īnd it gave us so many great, geeky lines to quote. Neo Cortex/Captain Black/Otto/Dark Dragon/Long Feng/Lex Luthor/Mr. Ian Malcolm/David Levinson, and (perhaps geekiest of all?) our future Sergeant Zim/Kurgan/John Danziger/Dr. Didn't we all dream of someday being a super-scientist/rock musician and get to travel around the country on the coolest tour bus ever made to save humanity from the evil aliens hiding amongst us? It gave us our future Robocop, our future Dr. The Adventures of Buckaroo Banzai Across the 8th Dimension was a great, adventurous, geeky movie, with enough silly science fiction and great characters to fill any three lousy summer blockbusters these days. August 15th was the 25th anniversary of the release of a film near and dear to many geeks who came of age in the '80s.

We missed posting this on Saturday, but it cannot be left unobserved.
