rewatched tank girl, I have such a complicated relationship with this movie. I'll dump like 5 smearing complaints about how flawed it is within like 20 minutes of watching, only to insist that it's one of my favorite movies ever.
the casting is perfect, but the dialog and direction is so mid! the bits and pieces of Hewlett's art is so cool to see, but it makes me wish it was a fully animated movie! the antagonists are goofy and fit the bizarro world of tank girl quite well, but jEEEEEEZ, the overwhelming amount of creepy pervy goons and the total creep fest that is the rippers??? it's so gross and uncomfortable. and speaking of the rippers, Booga, my boy, was done pretty dirty! hes mild mannered and clever! idk if I wasn't paying attention, but he was kinda played as an oaf. he's devoted to his girlie and his crew! he's got a big heart!!! and he's super well spoken!! Lori Petty is an iconic choice, but the lack of Aussie accent just bUgS mE!!!
my hope for the totally real and totally in production tank girl sequel (as well as it being fully animated, which will never happen lol) is that we see booga get a second chance. and fuck, whyy isn't Stevie in the first tank girl???? he's such a cool, wise character!!!! please, to the empty warehouse that is the current production house for tank girl 2, include Stevie. he's got so much potential. same goes for the rest of the extended cast, as they really help in rounding out the possibilities for the story!! also please just make polycule tank girl canon, all these absolute loons are dating, it just makes more sense.

Chris Wahl - Wonderful World of Tank Girl #1 (2017)
A thing I'm learning with Tank Girl covers is that they got INTENSE facial expressions.
