Title: Title please?
Post by: Newt on October 29, 2001, 12:35:12 PM
Hi.  I just found this site - can't tell you how delighted I am!

I have a stupid obsession with recalling the title of a movie from (maybe) the early '80s:  there were kids building a spaceship, and the scene I cannot get out of my mind was an alien carrying on like Bugs Bunny - with actual cartoon figures.  Please release me from this torment so I can move on!   Thanks.

If the weird alien carried on like it had seen too much television, then this could be Explorers (1985).

Any other possibilities?

Definitely Explorers. I can still see that spaceship made out of an old Tilt-a-Whirl car. Had to be one of the goofiest of the child fantasy adventure movies of the time, which is saying a lot. On the plus side, the one kid was a b-movie fan, and there was a nice clip of This Island Earth, if I recall correctly.

Yes!  That's it.  Bless you!
