The Harlem Globetrotters on Gilligan's Island

This movie is incredible! Amazing! It had everything! It is truly shocking that it was a made for TV production, it has epic blockbuster written all over it.

Name it and this movie has it. The Harlem Globetrotters, greedy developers, Gilligan, Mary-Ann, The Professor, The Skipper, the millionaire and his wife, the rest, tourists, basketball in an exotic Caribbean location....... this movie has everything! EVERYTHING! ABSOLUTELY EVERYTHING!

You should be grateful, very grateful, that we get entertainment such as this. The world is good.

This movie was one of the few that are better than the book. I have been a big fan of Gilligan ever since he blew their chances of getting off of the island. Nice to see Thruston Howell the 4th as well as the Globetrotters.

How often can you find the most entertaining sports team and the stars of the all time funniest situation comedy in one place? I only know of one and that's "The Harlem Globetrotters on Gilligan's Island." I have only seen this TV movie once and I thought it was the funniest thing I'd seen (besides the one where the castaways get rescued). I'd recommend it to anyone that just wants to sit back and relax while enjoying a good move.

This isn't a great movie. It isn't even a good movie, despite the presence of an Oscar-winning actor. But it did tell us all that robots can't think and human creativity and passion will always win out over the oligarchs' attempts to replace us.

Don't invest in AI. Invest in humanity. That's the moral.

One does miss the original Ginger, of course, and it is sad that the writers had to invent a never-mentioned son for Mr. & Mrs. Howell, but there was a reason. Jim Backus was dying.

The brief scene of Backus as Thurston is all the more valuable when you know how sick he was. He rallied for one day of shooting. According to Dawn Wells, after he finished his part, the frail Backus turned to Wells and asked "Was I funny?"

The Harlem Globtrotters crash land on Gilligan's Island. Compared to this, the original series seems almost intelligent.

That said this is truly one of the worst things you could imagine seeing.

This thing should be shown in prison to violent offenders serving life sentences. When they get finished watching this they will ask for the death penalty instead.

If you have anything else to do, and I mean anything, do it besides watching this.

Wow. If you were to teach a class on bad movies, this is the one to show.
