I had no problem with the movie itself being in live action style but I agree with some of the comments here that a remake of the film needs to be 100% animated.
All I have to say here is the opening credits were ace and the first half and hour of the movie was no bad then the plot started to deteriorate. Lorri Petty's performance as Tank girl kept me watching it till the end.
@youngrobbo1 i think they should do it with Fairuza Balk as Tank girl, she actually auditioned in the original and would have been better than lori petty in my opinion. And I think Fairuza would be able to show Tanky's devious side much better; Also they would have to make Booga cooler, yeah hes ***** whipped but he is not a moron!
i loved this song since the 1st time devo played it on fridays before the album with that annoying "whip it" came out.
who's the female singing this version? i had to argue with a buddy that it was sung by a gal when he played the soundtrack until mark mothersbaugh only did the vocals. i like this version better.
@djgambitron Mark Mothersbough remixed it and altered his voice electronically. He did similar tricks on other albums. The version here is only found on the Tank Girl OST
@SidneyBroadshead Wait, are you saying that the female vocals are technically Mark's then? I've looked forever for the version of this song with the female vocals; I prefer it to the straight-up Devo version. I had the soundtrack and remember being disappointed because it was NOT the one with the female vocals, as I recall. Could have been wrong, but that disappointment sure seems memorable...
@90geekgirl06 Yea it would have been a whole lot better but animation takes a hell of a lot of time too! Anyhoozle I think Lori Petty did a great job portraying Tank Girl.
@90geekgirl06 now that you have mentioned it ... yeah animation would have been great and also there were going to do it but it fell to pieces .... READ the cream of tank girl its a book on how tank girl was invented and what happened when making the film...its a good read !!!
Eh. Just a shame the whole movie wasn't animated like those little vignettes around the middle and end. Animation just seems like it would have suited the whole tank girl theme better then live action.
Yeah it's Devo, but I wanna know who the hell is doing the vocals on this. The lead vocals are a female singer. They also added some sweet bass effects on this too. I can't find jack on who did the add ons and vocals anywhere though.
R u sure this is DEVO performing.?? I think i hear a girl in here singing this

This movie was really a wrong timing type of movie. Had it come out now, people would be ALL OVER THIS SHIT.
With all of the Resident Evil/Super Heroes/Action movies that have to do with weird apocalyptic weirdness, this would sell SO FAST.

But yeah, this especially. I think Lori Petty did fine though; I don't think it's her fault that the movie was so awkward.
