The Last Starfighter (1984) - Before it's time video game movie or Star Wars clone? - a podcast by Andee Martin

One of my favourite sci-fi adventures of the 80's, now a minor cult classic but often looked upon as simply a Star Wars copy.

With the early use of CGI, fantastic make up effects, a great cast and funny moments I do feel this movie is quite special but what do people who didn't grow up with it think?

I showed it to Dave Kennington, who grow up in the same town as me and is also a huge movie fan, he had not seen it before, would he enjoy it or is it just nostalgia making me think this is more than just a cash in on the Star Wars craze of the early 80's?
