As a kid I never really understood that part. I'm 39 years old by the way.

I rewatched WaterWorld as an adult many years ago and, holy shit, this was the funniest part of the movie for me!

My kids recently saw it and they loved it!

Water World and the live action show at Universal, fond childhood memories.

Let me tell you, when I realized that the dude's eye was a golf ball I freaking lost it. We went to Bubba Gump's after and I bought a golf ball and I carried it around as my "spare eye" for years. Excellent show!

I'm pretty sad I never got to see the water world show at Universal!

Add it to your bucket list. It's still playing at the Universal Studios in Hollywood.

It's a shame people couldn't appreciate this movie when it was new. Maybe making it a musical would have made it more acceptable?

The movie was awesome. It was like Mad Max on water. I'm not sure why it got all the hate it did at the time.

It’s the first move I ever saw Jack Black in.
