07:09 am - The Last Starfighter

Previous Entry Share Next Entry

I'm off to see The Last Starfighter with eonen and others on Saturday at midnight at The Egyptian theater on Capitol Hill. This is a movie that is definitely worth the big screen. It's a fun, silly movie. Not spectacularly good, but with its own strange charm, even though it's not a quark either.

If anybody wants to come with me, they'd be welcome. Please reply to this entry and say something if you are interested. :-)

I recently rented that movie so my son could see it. I've always enjoyed it, and he did, too!

I would go butthere's half a continent in the way.

That's the first movie that just me and my dad went to. My brother was deemed too young (though I think that had to do with the time of the showing as much as the content of the movie).

My dad and I hunted for a video game that faithfully replicated the movie for quite awhile. Now, of course, the video game would be on the market before the movie and it would be a giant marketing extravaganza. But to my knowledge nobody has ever created a "The Last Starfighter" video game that was anything like the one in the movie. There was one that was fun, but it still wasn't very similar.
