The Last Starfighter

Love the Last Starfighter I've actually got it on my DVR from when one of the stations played it in HD... can't seem to delete it

Am I remembering this movie right? The big deal was that he was a gunner, even though they actually had hundreds of pilots, right?

I always thought that was lame, but I did enjoy the movie back in the day despite that.

Not really.

Spoiler

They had no gunners and just one pilot left. The rest were killed

I downloaded the game a year or two ago... someone created it so you could play it on an arcade machine. It's pretty cool, looks just like I remember the game from the movie.

Here's the link:

If playing on your computer there is a button you have to press to "add coins"... I think it was ctrl? But once you have that sorted the game is easy to play.

I honestly wouldn't be against a remake if it was done well.

There are rumours that a sequel is in the works called Son of the last Starfighter

I'd rather they do a remake. I'm betting this goes directly to DVD.
