I dunno about that... but.. it had some good ideas.. they just didn't spend
enough money in the right areas of the movie.. if they'd gotten rid of the
stupid pirate guy and his.. ahem.. issues... and spent the SFX money on a
better plot, things would have been tolerable. ;)

See above. ;) I'd say the funniest part was when the guy from Cheers got
sucked through the space station porthole after momentarily 'plugging' it. I
almost laughed at that. I did like the trucks though. The cyborg things were
even tolerable.. but what was .with. that stupid garage door opener zappy
thing to stop them. That was just... bad. :)
