I saw this on HBO at least 20 times as a kid. I loved this movie more than anything! I would love to see it again. I want see the boombox scene, isnt there breakdancing?

I'm guessing you're being satirical, but if not, there's NO breaking in this film; it was released in 1978, lol! And it didn't originate on HBO, it played in theaters that year. I saw it on a cross-country plane trip that summer.

Well, is there at least a scene with the castaway holding or dancing with a boombox?? I am not joking and I am aware of the date...

Well, there may be a scene where the young stowaway is dancing to music, but I don't recall it.

Well, to end the debate, the castaway was doing a robot dance. It is like almost the 80s dance but that's what he was doing. It is almost like break dancing but that's all he's doing then the music changed to slow dancing.
