I loved this movie as a kid. You are…. THE NAVIGATOR!

That part scared me where he flies and inch from his face.

Spiritual-Promise402@reddit

The part that creeped me out as a kid was when the robot's face went cloudy and wouldn't respond. I was horrified and thought he died

Pee Wee Herman was the voice of the spacecraft

You don't belong here if you didn't like this movie as a kid.

I loved this movie and asked my mom to put it on at my 7th birthday party. Turns out none of the other 6-7 year old girls liked it at all. They all went outside to play and I didn't even notice until my mom gently suggested I finish the movie after they leave. I was so disappointed, I thought I was going to blow them all away with this awesome movie!

I wanted a spaceship for a friend so bad

this movie was life to me as a little kid

ontheroadkevin@reddit

One of my all time favs from childhood!

rustyrazorblade@reddit

Been planning on showing this to my wife, I hope it holds up.

mom_bombadill@reddit

When he returned home and a new couple lived there, that scared me in such a deep visceral way when I was a kid.

[-]

VistaLaRiver@reddit

Me too. I rewatched for the first time a year or so ago and was able to appreciate the movie.

[-]

CoercionTictacs@reddit

Yes same!! I still feel uneasy now just thinking of this moment.

[-]

ThePuduInsideYou@reddit

Right like I remember this movie being good but also as a kid it freaked me out more than a little bit. All’s well that ends well I guess but his parents having aged was nightmare fuel for me.

[-]

AttilaTheFun818@reddit

This was one of my favorite movies as a kid

I rewatched it a few months ago after watching the Pee Wee documentary. It’s still a cute movie.

If you liked Flight of the Navigatior, give Project Hail Mary a shot

[-]

Stop_Already@reddit

I was thinking about this movie whilst in the theater!

[-]

CoercionTictacs@reddit

I wanna say “if you like any movie ever, give Project Hail Mary” a shot because I am such a fanboy for that film AND the book as well. Everybody should watch PHM!!!

[-]

S0bchak@reddit

This movie holds up so well. I've seen it twice in the last couple years with my children. It's solid sci-fi.

[-]

MirthRock@reddit

This is one of my favorite childhood movies. It captured something special. And somehow, my wife (1983) had never seen this movie. We watched it together and she absolutely loved it.

[-]

Yagoua81@reddit

Is it good for ages 6-7, it had a great impact on me and I’m eager to share it!

New game for Xennials and nostalgic movies called Better than Iron Eagle. Episode 1. Flight of the Navigator = Better than Iron Eagle.

xrelaht@reddit

Just the original, or do the sequels count?

(How did that movie have sequels??)

[-]

User152552@reddit

You said it. The best it ever got was the first one.

[-]

strolpol@reddit

I wish they’d give this a reboot. I loved it as a kid.

If there’s one complaint it’s that they do a great job with the atmosphere and mystery for the first half of the movie but then it kind of loses focus and becomes a road trip with Pee Wee. I kind of wish they’d had some greater objective than slowly driving to Fort Lauderdale

My son was giving me GPS directions from his phone just the other day, and I called him Navigator in a Pee Wee Herman voice. Sadly, even though we've watched the movie, he did not get the reference.

[-]

SubstantialDog9170@reddit

This movie had such a chokehold on me and my brother and now the only scene i vaguely recall is the sibling getting ready to go to a Twisted Sister concert

[-]

ouijahead@reddit

Eh ? He had a little brother, I remember that. Now I think Sarah Jessica Parker mentions having gone to or is going to a twisted sister concert.

[-]

CrouchingDomo@reddit

Yep! With her purple hair. I remember because it was the first time I heard of Twisted Sister 😆

[-]

SubstantialDog9170@reddit

Same!

[-]

Yum_Yukker@reddit

Twisted Sister? Who’s she?

[-]

Gilbot9000@reddit

We beat the brakes off this VHS watching it over and over

[-]

GlowersConstrue@reddit

Compliance never let me fly to outer space, listen to Twisted Sister and make friends with a squatty tree monster.

[-]

Blazah@reddit

Loveeeed this movie!!

[-]

dragon1n68@reddit

That kid irked me for some reason. Wasn’t Sarah Jessica Parker in this too?

[-]

Numinous_Octopodes@reddit

He irked you because he got gifted a spaceship and all he did was fucking whine about it

[-]

Illystylez619@reddit

This genuinely made me laugh out loud because I used to be so jealous of him! I wanted a puckmaren and to fly around too. He was kind of a brat also a little bit a of peeping Tom. I didn't realize that til I watched it recently.

[-]

Numinous_Octopodes@reddit

Dude me too. I was so jealous as a kid and then I watched him get pissy about going into space and I realized what a completely worthless child he is

[-]

liamsnorthstar@reddit

Yeah I think she was a nurse, maybe?

[-]

mr_bacciagalupe@reddit

She was like an intern at NASA that looked after him and brought him food in the Ralph module.

[-]

ouijahead@reddit

Ralph is probably sitting in a warehouse somewhere gathering dust . Poor guy.

[-]

Jupitersd2017@reddit

Yeah just looking at the side of his face just now I was like that annoying guy, he was obnoxious

[-]

Elbobosan@reddit

THIS! This is what I kept not quite thinking of during Hail Mary. I think it’s the banter.

[-]

StarGek_Interceptor@reddit

I LOVE this movie.

AlmondSprite@reddit

I love this movie!

PedalBoard78@reddit

We got to watch this as a “special treat“, one day in class. It turns out that the teacher had been fired earlier in the day, and that was all she was allowed to do for us until the bell rang. She cried during the movie.

[-]

Zefury83@reddit

That sucks.

[-]

Mistermxylplyx@reddit

Teachers are a special breed.

If you fire me I might cry, not that part. But it won’t be while doing the job you just fired me from, I’ll be at home arm wrestling Jack Daniels. You need somebody to watch the kids? Well, the bell just rang, GET TO STEPPING. Only a teacher puts the kids before their own pride and well being.

The little tiny cute puppet…I still want one as a pet 😂

[-]

Scherzkeks@reddit

This movie is why for a period of my childhood I was terrified I was living in a simulation on an off-world ship just like the puckmaren on board.

I'm not terrified anymore, but I'd like a reboot, thanks.

[-]

laydeebug1678@reddit

This was one of my favorite movies when I was a kid!

ChefJohnboy@reddit

See you later Navigator!

[-]

Yellow_Snow_Globe@reddit

I watched this movie growing up and loved it. I watched it again like 3 months ago and holy shit is the second half bad. It’s a completely different movie than the first half because the studio was worried about it being too dark and made them finish it all light and goofy. If it was just dark, it would have been incredible. That switch was garbage and the movie just blew it so hard. COMPLIANCE
