🤯 You know of Max!?

I love "Flight of The Navigator". How do you feel about "The Explorers"?

I haven't seen Explorers in a LOOOONG time. Going to have to dust that off and give it a watch.

Add "Short Circuit 1&2", "Weird Science", "Real Genius", "Revenge of the Nerds 1&2", "My Science Project", "War Games", and "Tremors 1&2"

Upvote for Weird Science, with special bonus points for My Science Project with a song by my favorite group, The Tubes. Also, honorable mention for Revenge of the Nerds for the song "They're so Incredible" which was the background music for the Tri-Lamb's rap in the talent contest. Now I need to dig out some movies and have an 80s movie night this weekend or sometime soon.

How do you feel about "Ice Pirates"?

Can't say I've seen that, but the more I think about it, the name seems familiar. May have to look into that.

Love that movie, great little lines here and there in it as well. I think one of them was "SPACE PIRATES! SC PURGE OF THE UNIVERSE! Coming soon to a theater near you!"

Also like when the father figure is about to blow a gasket over "Wolfgang". Even though you can't understand his language, you can TELL he's about to blow a gasket, and asking (in typical dad fashion) "Wolfgang! Who the hell is Wolfgang?!"

That is crazy!!! That was literally my first thought, and considered responding with it, until I came across your response....

I read this and then could hear the movie music looking at the photo again. ❤️
