Thanks, Sam. I think TGMBC came right during another sequel craze in the 80's - lots of blockbuster franchises as well as some unnecessary sequel series (i.e., Police Academy). It's too bad this movie couldn't have existed as a stand alone and gotten some more respect so many years later.

Aye Dan, I do remember this one has having exceptional slapstick comedy, which even trumps the trenchant satire. It's one of those films that is endlessly entertaining, even if as you rightly norte, the sequels diluted the deceit. I received endless amusement from what ensues when the bottle is dropped from the sky. Lovely review, which brings back a number of memories.

BTW, I do favor 1989 as the best film year of the 80's.
