Oh, come on! "Innerspace" is a ridiculously good film. It's a movie that you can watch and just kick back with.
I saw "Innerspace" as a kid and to this day, it remains one of my favorite Joe Dante films, right next to "Gremlins 2" and his segment from "The Twilight Zone" film.
That said, I think I'm the only one here --much like the previous Roger Rabbit discussion-- who noticed that General Hawk in "GI Joe" had Tuck's (Quaid) leather jacket hanging in his office. Even if it wasn't intentional, I got a kick out of it.
Plus, Kevin "Invasion of the Body Snatchers" McCarthy as an evil genius. That alone is full of win.
I had the honor of meeting Mr McCarthy a few years ago at MonsterBash up in Butler, PA. I remarked that he was one of the coolest actors ever. His response:
Innerspace was a great movie killed by one of the worst posters in movie history. All three stars where at their "hot, new star" peak and the poster was this. What three things are missing?
Innerspace and Come See the Paradise are why I am madly in love with Dennis Quaid and will be for the rest of my life... (Even if he is my fathers age...)
Coincidentally, it is also the best fantastic voyage-inspired drunken dance orgy ever. I was always bummed out when it happened to be on whatever-channel and I found that I just missed the drunk dance party. Oh, those were good times.

"Yep...and I'm gettin' cooler by the minute!"
