Discussion»Questions»Television and Movies» If I remember this movie correctly, wasn’t “The Last Starfighter” just one of the many rip-offs of 1977’s “Star Wars”? ~
"Greetings starfighter. You have been recruited by the Star League to defend the Frontier against Xur and the Ko-dan Armada."
It was more like a video game movie than a Star Wars rip off. Of course, with the 3 Star Wars movies fresh on people's minds, may have been the reason for its making.
No matter, it was still a very dorky movie! "Starlight Starbright, the place where Alex and Maggie left for the stars"??? That's just bad!
