    God, this reminds me of the time I got the high score of Frogger in the pizzeria near my house, and then ended up fighting aliens in an interstellar war. Really takes me back...

    Dude, I still love this movie. It’s just so damn fun, and I remember how the CG BLEW me away. The effort the animators has to endure using _military supercomputers_ and draw EVERYTHING by hand, connecting all the polygons together for a 3D format after, then texture mapping, & lighting effects was no easy task.
    I love old school CG, it just has a charming feel to it like Stop Animation. Alex’s subtle but relatable “WTF” reactions always cracked me up, too. Beta was my favorite, though. I love that scene where he’s trying to woo Maggie when he unsuccessfully makes out with her by repeating what that jerk in the cowboy hat said to his slutty girlfriend, and Maggie’s reaction was priceless. 😂
    Great review, Bee!

    Seriously underrated
    The scene where he's finally about to beat the arcade game and the whole town gathers to watch is my favorite LOL.

    I can't understand how this guy has so little subscribers, it's absolutely ridiculously ridiculous.
    Honestly I remember watching this movie a couple of years ago, I had never heard of it until then and I watched it with my friends, I barely remember much of it but I do remember that I loved it, I'm glad this review came because I had almost forgotten about the movie until I saw this review and I'm glad I get to relive such fun and ridiculous experiences.

    I actually watched this video a couple times back when I found the channel and started binging content, but I forgot to comment.
    I LOVED this movie as a kid, and I love that your channel covers this. The Last Starfighter, Round Thing, Splice, Starship Troopers... All these older, or otherwise more obscure, movies that I enjoy. And it's really cool to see that others enjoyed them too, and add on that the NewBee style narration and commentary just amps the whole experience to eleven and a half.
    All Glory to the Bee.

    *"That man over there is playing Galaga. He thought we wouldn't notice, but we did."* - Tony Stark, Avengers 2012. Also, Death Blossom sounds like an all girls Metal Band.

    @juliet116 5 років тому +2

    Centauri sounds like a slick salesman because the actor, Robert Preston, based his charactor off of the con man Harold Hill whom he played in The Music Man. A movie I also love!

      @elchimpo9063 5 років тому

      Jack Simon in fact I think the Mona Lisa wouldn’t be anything special if it were cg and the effects in this are interesting for their time but imagine this concept with modern effects or even just touched up it could be cool

    • @elchimpo9063

    Robert Preston and Dan O'Herlihy were great in this movie. Derivative yet original in its own way. Norman Snow even manages to make the 2-d villain an enjoyable watch.

    The main theme reminds me of my childhood. Which is hilarious cause as a kid I may have only watched it a handful of times. I was actually kinda creeped out by it as a kid. But growing up I grew to appreciate it more and love it so much. Yeah it might be a Star Wars clone but it’s a damn good one for sure. I love Star Wars and Tron and this is almost like that beautiful in between forgotten gem.

    If there's ever a sequel and Xur is in it, he'd be a fugitive from both the Star League and the KoDan Empire. Keep in mind the KoDan invested lots of valuable combat resources into that invasion, an invasion Xur no doubt assured the emperor was going to be a success. Instead, all those ships and pilots got blown up and Xur was the only one to get away in an escape pod. If he were to go back to the KoDan, he would be in the unenviable position of having to give accounts to the emperor as to why things didn't go according to plan. That doesn't typically end well.

    I imagine when he said there’s probably a world where a plumber is killing turtles I now imagine a random plumber that was immune to these poisonous turtles that have killed all other humans other than peach but he has to kill all the turtles in his path haha, but I imagine getting teleported next to him and him being like “finally someone to help, here grab this and start killing turtles” *hands me a hammer* “idk if I can do that” omg is that blood on this!? “Yea just do it see?” *starts smashing a random turtles in a herd*
    *i step back in horror and beg to just go home*

    „So when he beats the record, the whole trailer park comes out to watch. Aliens start shooting and everyone is like, „Keep it down out there!“ 😂 My favorite line from all of your reviews, closely followed by „If you want to see people get eaten by salad, watch The Ruins.“ 🤣

    In my opinion the best "video game movie" ever made is Edge of Tomorrow. Although it's not based on a game, it perfectly captures the feeling of trying over and over again until you get it right. It's one of my favorite sci fi movies.
