I said, ‘How can I be sexual and sensual in space?’” The choreographer decided to present Mita as “the ringmaster of this space world … She would travel to a different part of the stage and have moments in these little tableaux, one with a ballet dancer, another with this guy who could do these bone-breaking dance moves.” D’umo also presented Dobkin with some proposed shots in which the ballet dancer would creep through Mita’s legs, sweep them apart, and then do “two thrusts from the ground with a low angle right beneath her pelvis.” What she calls “the money shot” is in the movie. “David was like, ‘I want her to come out of the ground and she’s in a spacesuit!’ ” recalls Tabitha D’umo, who found inspiration in a Vegas specialty act “with this girl who would get inside a balloon and do this risqué burlesque act.

That ten-degrees difference just made it come to life.” Dobkin points to how Lars “opens the ‘ah’ in ‘mahn’” when he sings the words “Volcano Man” as an example of the song’s comic effect.
