Buckaroo Banzai
Big Trouble in Little China
Freaking loved big trouble in little China. Cult classic to the max. I thought the magic was so cool!
I was so ready to see Buckaroo Banzai take on the World Crime League.
There is a book, but it wasn't very good. :(

1st book adapts the movie:

The problem was the story itself was so self-contained any sequel they tried would have clearly been nothing but a huge cash grab.
But they supposedly are making a sequel, starring The Rock 🫤
Is this the one where he plays the physically fit, yet somewhat goofy protagonist with corny jokes and facial expressions?
If they cast the rock in a Big Trouble sequel, I’m becoming a terrorist. He will ruin any franchise with his ego.
