I remember seeing this little gem of a sci-fi movie back when I was in elementary. Boy, was I enthralled, to say the least.<br/><br/>Back then, I kept wishing they would make a sequel. To this day, I keep wishing.<br/><br/>Anyway, this is an enjoyable romp through the galaxy with a stellar performance by the late Robert Preston. The same could also be said of Dan O'Herlihy (the overgrown iguana), he was good too.<br/><br/>Granted, the storyline is a bit on the hokey side. However, the space battle scenes are worth a look. Fortunately, the TNT cable channel airs the movie every so often. Now, if they can be persuaded to show other science fiction movieswell…hmmm
The master at playing video games in a small town becomes a space fighter. It's been a long time since I've seen this film, but I can remember watching it at a younger age and being fascinated by the storyline. We were so excited to see video games save the world. Of course, this never came true and never will, but it was a great fantasy to have at the time.<br/><br/>Unfortunately, this kind of film and its genre have been lost; I do not believe there is a replacement for such movies in modern cinema. I am afraid people checking the movie out now will find it dated and somewhat lacking.<br/><br/>ZooTrouble
A sweet, unabashedly corny, matinee-friendly science-fiction adventure starring Lance Guesta trailer-park videogame prodigy, and Robert Prestonthe alien who recruits him to save the day from some space-baddies.
Yes and no.<br/><br/>The game in the movie was a mock-up. The game cabinet is shown, but the screens were just computer-animated. The cabinet had colored lights for that scene. At the time this movie was made, an arcade game with graphics like that was not possible. There were plans to release an arcade version with vector graphics like the Star Wars arcade game (http://www.klov.com/game_detail.php?letter=S&game_id=9773) but this never got beyond early stages and was never finished.<br/><br/>On the home front, there were plans to make an Atari 2600 version but that game was nothing like what is seen in the movie. The game was later renamed and releasedSolaris (http://www.mobygames.com/game/atari-2600/solaris_). There was a Last Starfighter game created for the Atari 5200 computer (http://www.atariage.com/software_page.html?SoftwareLabelID=789) which was never released, and one for the Atari 400/800 which was renamed and releasedStar Raiders II. It was also ported to other systems of the time, like Commodore 64, ZX Spectrum, and Amstrad CPC (http://www.mobygames.com/game/star-raiders-ii).<br/><br/>In 2006, a company called Rogue Synapse (www.roguesynapse.com) created a version of the game seen in the movie that is designed to run on Windows, and they provide plans for how to make a replica game cabinet. Centauri wanted his death to motivate Alex to fight Zur and the Ko-Dan armada. Give Alex a reason to help save Rylos and the Star Leaguewellsaving Earth and his own family and friends. Give Alex a reason to fighta Starfighter. Grig was in the hanger working on the prototype of the advanced Gunstar which was to be Alex's Gunstar, when the base was attacked and destroyed. When Alex and Centauri return to Rylos, they learn that all the Starfighters were massacred in the destruction of Star League Command. Since Alex was away on Earth, he was the only Starfighter left to stand against Xur,Grig was only a navigator. In 2009, 25 years after the film's release, it was announced that there was to be a long-awaited sequel entitled "Starfighter" which was to take place 30 years after this film. The only original cast member rumored to be returning was Norman SnowXur. The sequel was shelved. However, given the current spate of revival shows and reboots, including Paramount's upcoming remake of Joe Dante's 'Explorers', it wouldn't comea surprise if it made it to theaters. The movie tie-in novel published by Berkley Publishing, an imprint of Penguin Books.
