Ep.48 Remaking the Last Starfighter (1984)
Episode description
A young man named Alex Rogan is desperate to escape his small little world in the Starlight Starbright trailer park. His only escape is in the one arcade game at the trailer park, Starfighter. Alex had no idea this game would be the gateway to another life among the stars as a reluctant hero.
Invasion of the Remake goes back to a childhood favorite in The Last Starfighter (1984) rethinking it as a modern remake and how modern gaming might change this sci-fi, adventure film, while still considering the more personal elements that affect Alex's life. Strap yourselves into your Gunstars cause this one is going to be a blast of awesome!
