    I'd read that Michael Ironside had been set up in the costume on a crane with the big claw things, they did some filming, called lunch, and everybody forgot that he was stuck in costume hanging in the air and hungry while everybody went off and ate.
    Some of the set designs are great - the one with the "water Amazons" is cool, looking like an organic metal swamp. I've always wondered what the "mutant baby" costumes were from, were they something a costume rental house had lying around or were they created for this movie. I could swear I've seen something similar in other movies.

    Brandon is a little hard on Wolf sometimes with Ringwalds character Nicky. He was a perfect appropriate mentor to her and even sacrificed easy money in the intersest of Nicky's well being and safety. As bizarre as the environment was, throwing in a fifteen year old New Wave grunge girl as Wolf's impromptu sidekick was weird as well on the screenwriters part. Wolf handled the situation with class and style, never a hint of anything inappropriate with Nicky implied in the least. You gotta give him props for being a trustworthy...if not kinda cranky at being constantly thrust into the role of antihero rescuer.....adult.

    I had completely forgotten about that safety ad about the android, Canada had a lot of trippy commercial inserts like that in the 90's.

      @@troyduren5079 That video (directed by Russell Mulcahy, the director of Highlander) was made after the release of Spacehunter and it also has a post-apocalyptic look, so this movie may have been a source of inspiration.

    Man, i was looking for this movie in ages, but that was a long long time ago. I kinda ran into it on TV, but i only got to see the end of it, or something like the last third. As i never saw the title, i couldn't find it on rental, or later on on the net. But now i do! This has such a charming style and now i know where it got it from!

    I remember the free program we got at that Jedi premier had an add for this movie and Jaws 3!

All of the random set pieces, each with their own threats to get through, with a nasty cyborg big-boss at the end... And I'm pleased that you chose to play my favorite clip from the movie, "I'll take that bet."
