OK this movie is really haunting me. What I remember was that it had a boy named milo (I think) he was very clumsy and absent minded. He drove a car through the garage door and would recive cassette tapes in coconuts from a gut who may have been christopher Lloyd or some one like that. Any way at the end milo flys off in a lawn chair tied to balloons. Please help!

This was the answer for a question asked after yours, they might be the same movie?

Movie is called The Phantom Tollbooth
"Milo is a boy who is bored with life. One day he comes home to find a toll booth in his room. Having nothing better to do, he gets in his toy car and drives through - only to emerge in a world full of adventure."

Here was there question:
Hey. This has been bugging me. I used to watch this movie when I was a kid. So maybe later 80's or a early 90's movie. There a young boy (cant remember his name), and a tollbooth. All I remember is that he get in the tollbooth and travels to a different world, and he becomes cartoon, but when he goes back home he is not cartoon anymore. I know there is a children's book called the magic tollbooth. And I'm guessing the movie title is something like that but I can't remember. For some reason I keep thinking its called "james and the magic tollboth" but then I think his name is Milo... I don't know. Maybe I'm making all this stuff up. Lol. Does this sound familiar to anyone??

Thanks, but was the Phantom Tollboth a cartoon? The one I'm talking about was live action.

I have no idea... I've never seen it. I looked up the name Milo on imdb and nothing even came close to your description... when I read the other question, it seemed a little similar to yours... your description sounds familiar, but nothing is popping in my head. I'm sure someone will get it.

Thank you. I tried searching online for a hour and came up with nothing. This is my last hope

I just found something on imdb. Delivering Milo 2001... the cover has a kid hanging from a balloon??

Strange that kind of sounded close, but my movie was from the early 80's.

It's called "How to Be a Perfect Person in Just Three Days."

I know that cartoon "there is a boy in live action named milo who goes home and sees a huge box in his yard. he puts his hand across the box and his hand turns cartoon. so the box makes a cartoon world, and in this cartoon world there is this unicycle police robot thing with a single flashing light on his head who goes around saying "GUILTY GUILTY GUILTY" whenever he thinks something is going down" that about all I can remember of it. I've been trying to remember the name of that movie for years I actually had it on VHS but fungus started growing on the tape so it became uselessi think the title has the word "BOX" in it. That's all I can give you. My memory is bad.

Ohh my... I have been searching for the same movie with a boy called milo... I have asked all the movie stores ,family and friends and nothing they actually look at me weird cause all I remember is the name of the boy cause he had a very scary voice... also I recall a house alomost in the woods and him in the basement I believe... It has been so long since I have seen it...
