Sequel!!! Where does the saucer take ZIB!?! Who are the Men in Black!?! What is the secret of the Quasar amulet!? We need answers!

[@raze7x]

Nice! Intriguing and funny! Music score is fantastic.

[@joustingdude]

Interesting. Looking forward to the further adventures of Zib :-)

[@williamfaulkner7005]

Unfortunately, Zib did not know that the laws of physics were only abated while in the appropriate seat. When the craft accelerated, Zib was crushed against the rear bulkhead. Although he survived that, due to his trinket, he did not survive the phase shift required for entry into hyperspace. When autopilot returned to its origin, the locals opened it up, resigned to the fact that, yet again, the same team allowed their ship to be hijacked.

[@LazzarrusLong]

I like that Sasquatch enters the scene after the protagonist calls out to the UFO/Aliens (subtle connection there; well done). The old school brick phone is a nice touch and humorous. 😁

[@grimdolo918]

God speed, Zib. God speed.

[@AaaA-on1jq]

Cool

[@dr.magnusnyhusurgentcarebar]

For a moment, Zib reminded me of the most interesting man in the world actor who said I don't always drink beer, but when I do, I prefer Dos Equis.

[@jamessparks7331]

Oh is he not the dos Equis guy?

[@johnnysuppicich3049]

The Most Interesting ZIB in the world :D !

[@CrabbyPattydelight]

I recommend not drinking alcohol as its highly toxic, just another chop at the tree, can be a blast but it's short winded, it will degrade the quality of life, keep you stuck, yet I believe people should be "free" to drink if they so choose, the irony with the legality of things is a shit show

[@electricsparks4251]

Silly movie and dialog, but I will say this. The guy that plays Atonin Zib has a real beard. It's not a fake. Long head hair is real also. How long did the producers have to wait for all this to grow in, or did he already have it when chosen for the part? Guy dressed up like an Orthodox rabbi with the white beard, now that is a fake. Real beards are not "that" white. Looks like my grandfather though. Couldn't help but laugh at it. As for the dark glasses, why those things are used by welders who cut up steel, not weld steel, which takes a face helmet to use. And the motor cycle? An old Harley Davidson. Where'd you get that? As for the actor in the ally scene, the make up was so good, I swear I could smell the stink right through the monitor screen. Thanks Jon for the memories and the entertainment.
