Now that is a great guilty pleasure movie!!
I also have to add Space Camp. I loved that movie when I was a kid (and still watch it whenever I see it on tv).

I think you two are talking about John Carpenter's "Dark Star", where the bomb the ship crew wanted to use to blow up an instable planet starts to become philosophical and has to be talked into not exploding because of the defective release mechanism, but in the end states "It was dark. I was alone. There be light." (or close to that
)If that is not the one you are talking about, forget what I sad

Keep flying,

Someone mentioned Labyrinth, one of my all time favorite movies!
My hubby used to always make fun of me for it, he's never seen it but knows it's from the 80s and has singing puppets and David Bowie in it. Sounds pretty exciting to me! LOL
The same person, sorry I don't remember your name, mentioned Pete and Pete which brought back some fond memories. That and Salute Your Shorts used to be my favorite shows as a kid. Hey, remember when Nickelodeon was good?
