Mechamaniac Posted September 23, 2004 Posted September 23, 2004 Just when I thought that the gayest movie ever made couldn't get any gayer. It will be fun when they unleash [LISP]Deathblotthom![/LISP] Quote
Otaku-Smeghead Posted September 23, 2004 Posted September 23, 2004 Me and Solscud are big big fans of Starfighter and I think I can speak for the both of us when I say Quote

Opus Posted September 23, 2004 Posted September 23, 2004 Sounds quite M7. Nothing could be that gay. Quote
Knight26 Posted September 23, 2004 Posted September 23, 2004 Man the Last Starfighter is great how could they do this to it, what's next Buckaro Banzai the muscial? Quote
Skull Leader Posted September 23, 2004 Posted September 23, 2004 the Last Starfighter was hella badass for it's time, I just don't see how it can be made a musical and still be anything of worth... oh well. Quote
1st Border Red Devil Posted September 23, 2004 Posted September 23, 2004 Well..... seems they wanna turn everything into a musical. First it was Star Wars with The Christmas Special then the Lord of the Rings as a musical (though, to be fair, if they actually have the poems/leys from the novels it may be better than PJs travesty). Now they are doing The Last Starfighter. Whatever....I aint spending a dime on something like that so its no sweat off my buttcrack. Someone was definitely deciding to do a real Springtime for Hitler it seems. Quote
macplus Posted September 24, 2004 Posted September 24, 2004 Sounds quite M7. Nothing could be that gay. So true Quote
Mellow Yellow Posted September 24, 2004 Posted September 24, 2004 I liked The Last Starfighter. It's all about the Death Blossom Quote
Gaijin Posted September 24, 2004 Posted September 24, 2004 Last Starfighter Rules. This...does not. Quote
gerwalk25 Posted September 24, 2004 Posted September 24, 2004 Awwwh Man! I thought you were talking about a LSF 20th Anniversary edition DVD! This is also one of my favorite movies! Sure, Lion King can translate well from the big screen to musical theater but LSF? WTF? Quote
JsARCLIGHT Posted September 24, 2004 Posted September 24, 2004 I think the only thing I like about the Last Starfighter is the actual ship itself. The ship is pretty neat and the concept behind it was interesting (using the whole pilot / gunner Apache thing). But as for the actual movie and this supposed stage production: bleh. Lance Guest does not an action hero make and the Last Starfighter is a hard sell as an opera... how in the hell do they pull off the final battle? Interpretive dance? People in costumes like a third grade play? Running around with their arms out yelling "peeeoooo! peeeoooooo!"? What's next? Tora, Tora, Tora! the musical? Quote
Wes Posted September 24, 2004 Posted September 24, 2004 (edited) I am now convinced that the End Times are upon us - increase in natural disasters, wars and rumors of wars, distrubing bastardizations that defy creation... Edited September 24, 2004 by Wes Quote
DARKWIND Posted September 24, 2004 Posted September 24, 2004 (edited) Well there goes the sick joke theory. . . Just checked the link. . . That has to be one of the most unfathomable blunders made by mortal man. . . WHY, WHY, WHY, and again,WHY!!!!! Edited September 24, 2004 by DARKWIND Quote
Pat S Posted September 24, 2004 Posted September 24, 2004 (edited) Speaking of The Last Starfighter, someone built a Starfighter Arcade Machine... http://www.arcadecontrols.org/yabbse/index...;threadid=24691 Edited September 24, 2004 by Pat S Quote
Mercurial Morpheus Posted September 24, 2004 Posted September 24, 2004 I could never have seen this coming. Part of me is curious how they'll pull it off, but it's hard to see it working. What next, Krull the musical? Might as well take another film I loved when I was young and exploit it. I know, Evil Dead, on Stage!! Will wonders never cease? I wouldn't condemn it until more is known though. Quote
Bluedeath Posted September 24, 2004 Posted September 24, 2004 Just when I thought that the gayest movie ever made couldn't get any gayer.It will be fun when they unleash [LISP]Deathblotthom![/LISP] Don't you dare to say it again! Last starfighter was one of the best Sci FI movies ever made. Quote

I wouldn't condemn it until more is known though. What, you mean THIS??!? What can I say, lads? There's only one way to get to the truth here. And that's to enter the belly of the beast and see for myself. That theater is around the corner from where I work. Come next month, I think I just might pony up my $20 and view this trainwreck firsthand. I'll report back....if I survive.... Quote
EXO Posted September 24, 2004 Posted September 24, 2004 The obvious choice would have been Tron on Ice, starring Nathan Lane as Miltron.

Jemstone Posted September 24, 2004 Posted September 24, 2004 Musical suggestions mentioned thus far. Buckaroo banzai. Check. Springtime for Hitler. Check. Tora, Tora, Tora!! Check. Krull. Check. Tron. Check. Any more? Quote
Vespaeda Posted September 25, 2004 Posted September 25, 2004 What the heck, Jem... Howsabout 'Lazer Blast'(post-ANH sci-fi schlock trying to cash in on the SW hype; including scene with the protagonist w/the arm mounted cannon blowing up a poorly mocked-up "Star Wars" movie billboard)? and 'Alien'...no,...'Alien 3' Yes, I can increasingly identify with the 'rape-of-my-childhood' whine!

Tron. Check. Any more? Sure, why not that Darth Vader musical they were dreaming up back in the 80's. About that Evil Dead thing - I was just being random, who'd have thought it was real. Quote
