Big Top Pee-wee (1988)
From Amazon:
There's nothing wrong with Randall Kleiser's Big Top Pee-Wee that Pee-Wee's Big Adventure director Tim Burton wouldn't be able to fix. Take the scene in which entwined farmer and botanist Pee-Wee and ravishing circus performer Gina (Valeria Golina) blissfully ponder the shapes of the clouds. One can only imagine the wondrous forms Burton would have animated in the heavens. In Kleiser's sequel, they are mere cumulus. A talking pig and a sympathetic gallery of outcast circus performers (including a young Benicio Del Toro as the Dog-Faced Boy) notwithstanding, Big Top squanders much of the first film's magic and goodwill....

I mentioned a scene from this movie to some hardcore Big Adventure fans once, and you would have thought I had called their mothers wh*res. I haven't seen this movie in a long time, but I remember enjoying it. Yes in the hands of Tim Burton it could have been great. It does not have Big Adventure's dual appeal to children...
