Goofs:

Continuity: When PeeWee and Winnie are eating lunch, some of Winnie's egg salad sandwich falls on PeeWee's face and jacket. He wipes his face on her dress, but in the next shot it's not on her dress or his jacket.

Quotes:

Pee-wee: [shouting] All I wanted was a measly sandwich. I very nicely explained that I was starving. I'm starving. Please.
Mr. Ryan: [Angrily] Sorry, ladies, I guess you'll just have to wait. You remember, nobody is as important in this community as Pee-Wee Herman. All you other shoppers will just have to play second fiddle to Pee-Wee. I guess that's just the way things are around here. My whole purpose in life is to serve Pee-Wee Herman. Everything else comes second. Here's your sandwich. Is there anything else I can do for you, Pee-Wee?

Randy did a great job!

Big Top Pee Wee!!!!

It was a great movie. I mean the art and one question why didn't he marry Dotty??? He loved Dotty he should have married her! Well it was still a great movie with the music and loveable Pee Wee!!! I love the doll with that movie cause he is so popular!! Pee Wee should come back to life. Seriosly him and Dotty can then get married and then Pee Wee can be somewhat older. Does this movie have a soundtrack??? If it does tell me I wanna know. I give this movie a 10/10 for it's outstanding comedy and funniness................................................... What do you think rite your comments on www.imdb.com Dotty and him seriosly shouild have got married."I know u are but what am I"
