Greetings, Starfighter! We're taking the fight straight to the Ko'Dan Empire this week, because we're talking about the 1984 cult favorite THE LAST STARFIGHTER! The tale of a young video game whiz who gets recruited to join an interstellar war is renowned for its fun atmosphere and groundbreaking CGI special effects, but how does it hold up 40 years later? We're then discussing two game adaptations: a loosely-connected NES game from 1990, and an impressive, fan-made recreation of the in-film game!
Hosted by Steve Guntli, Jennifer "JBan" Bannister, and Justin Wilhelm
