STARMAN (1984) MOVIE REACTION! FIRST TIME WATCHING!

[@shainewhite2781]

In 1985, 1986, or 1987, there a TV series starring Robert Hayes, Ted Striker From Airplane, as Starman,who comes back to earth in search of his biological son, and together, they go on some crazy adventures while government agencies are in their trail. This was the first and only John Carpenter film to be nominated for Best Actor, Jeff Bridges.

[@Assisi4]

Yep I remember that series. The head agency bad guy actor who was in the movie was also in the series. Not the best series but I watched it anyway. 😉

[@Drawkcabi]

Yeah, because the son was half alien, he aged up quickly to a teenager. Starman found him in the first episode but his mother had gone missing and that's what they were doing traveling around looking for her. For an 80's sci-fi series, it was one of the better ones.

[@CassandrashadowcassMorrison]

It ran for one season. 1986-1987) and the actor's name is spelled without the "e" and is currently available on "Crackle,"

[@CassandrashadowcassMorrison]

@@Assisi4 The head agency bad guy actor's name was Richard Jaeckel (he died in 1997) and he was not in the series. He DID star in 1967's THE DIRTY DOZEN with Lee Marvin, though, AND in the made for television sequel THE DIRTY DOZEN: NEXT MISSION 18 years later.

[@AnthonyLaMastra]

I remember watching the show! I really liked it, but I don’t think it lasted long.

[@jcastromex]

Yes! Someone finally reacts to this film and I'm glad it's you, Jen. It's a great movie.

[@jpwcpa]

Nox So Subtle will be reacting to this movie within the next week or two.

[@jcastromex]

@@jpwcpa So good! I like Aideen's reactions. 👍

[@SamM_Scot]

This classic sci-fi romance doesn't get enough love when people talk about John Carpenter. It's sooo good and yes it's actor Michael Douglas whom also produced the amazing One Flew Over The Cuckoo's Nest :-)

[@w1975b]

in Jen's summary she called it horror...I thought, "horror!? no way" as a description of Starman

[@SamM_Scot]

@@w1975b Yeah, but too be fair whenever you think of Carpenter it's usually his iconic horrors like The Thing and Halloween. Horror movies is what he mostly made :-)

[@44excalibur]

"Some country sent up a gold record... or something?" Yeah, it was us, Jen! 😜The USA! NASA, specifically. NASA sent two gold records on the two Voyager spacecraft launched in 1977, Voyager 1 and Voyager 2. The contents were selected by a committee headed by famous astrophysicist Carl Sagan, which contain general information, language, and music from Earth.

[@williamwilson7631]

"Red light stop, green light go, yellow light go very fast." has been a quote in my family since we saw this. Bridges got a well deserved Oscar nomination for this, rare at the time for a sci-fi movie.

[@LordVolkov]

Same! I have since learned better, for the safety of others on the road 😅

[@takeoutartist]

That’s how I drive! I must be an alien.

[@44excalibur]

Fun Fact: Starman is one of the two films that John Carpenter directed where he did not compose the original music himself, the other being The Thing, which was composed by Ennio Morricone. Starman was scored by Jack Nitzsche, who had also composed the music for The Exorcist, One Flew Over The Cuckoo's Nest, An Officer and a Gentleman, and Stand By Me.

[@vasher1939]

Wow. I had assumed he did do the theme music. Learn something every day.

[@clarencewalker3925]

Jack Nitzsche also composed the theme for the campy film "Village of the Giants" years ago, musci "borrowed" by Tarantino for his film "Deathproof."

[@matthewdunham1689]

This is a great movie, I didn't think John Carpenter had a movie like this in him. Usually it's masterpieces like The Thing and Halloween and the underrated Prince of Darkness! 😃❤

[@PatrickPrejusa]

also, he did memoirs of an invisible man with chevy chase.

[@w1975b]

don't forget They Live

[@mackgerry]

He also did Elvis The Movie (1979)

[@LordVolkov]

Highly underrated gem from Carpenter! Karen Allen's performance is fantastic, and I love 'alien' Jeff Bridges. His doofy smile always makes me grin and he's such a sweet character.

[@randysmith7045]

YES YES YES. This movie is amazing. Thanks for doing a reaction to it. i am so happy to see this

[@sleuthentertainment5872]

When I was a child my dad, with a raspy voice, used to say to me "Look at that star, there's your mum...". I understood it not late; of course my mother wasn't a star or an alien, but my father had that romantic concept about what a star could mean if you look it while thinking about the beloved person that once left you... Looks like John Carpenter knows that feeling when he made Starman; he have never been a sentimental director, but for some reason he understood the concept of romance and to be romantic, beyond the Hollywood's love stories stereotypes, that use to be more sentimental than romantic... The concept of love, life and death goes beyond that in Starman. That's the reason the emotional scenes of the two main characters never look fake, and how easily can move your heart, and, if you drop the guard, it could end being shattered. One of these moments, especially, is the confession about the forthcoming baby...it really breaks you

[@BigGator5]

The word of today: Panties! 😍 Fun Fact: When Jeff Bridges walks outside the house naked and uses a 'marble' his hair seems to stand on end. This effect was actually created by shooting Bridges hanging upside-down and then matting the shot onto the background the right way up to give him a surreal look. Bonus Fact: Actor Jeff Bridges studied ornithology and the behavior of birds to prepare for his role as an alien in human form for this movie. Bridges particularly used the sudden jerky head movements, amongst other nuances and mannerisms, of birds for his Starman character. Bridges figured that the alien would not have human characteristics and, being encased in a human body, would act with base primitive animal instincts. Bonus Fact: The rendezvous crater location where the Starman was to meet and return to the mother ship is a place situated just outside of Winslow, Arizona. According to the National Geographic, the site is one mile wide, 570 feet deep, and about 49,000 years old.

[@44excalibur]

Another Fun Fact: Jeff Bridges used his previous performance as CLU in the movie TRON as inspiration for the Starman's speech pattern.

[@satyadasgumbyji8956]

The clip on tv u asked about, if I remember correct, was from 1 of the most famous flix from it's time called, " From Here To Eternity." Growing up as a kid n the '70's, I never watched it, but was like Luke Skywalker, Darth Vader memes of 2day-EVERYBODY knew of famous Beach scene, & is why was parodied n flix like "Airplane"!...I saw this at the movies when came out, & a few times later on cable & never even realized/remembered was John Carpenter! Haven't checked ur list, but if haven't seen, "Escape From New York" is top Carpenter!!✌👽❤

[@melenatorr]

Yes, it's "From Here to Eternity", a very strong movie taking place in Hawaii just immediately before WWII. The two actors in this famous scene are Burt Lancaster and Deborah Kerr (pronounced "Carr"). This was an important movie for several reasons, among them the casting of Kerr herself: usually put into genteel, ladylike roles, she has a chance to stretch her talents here and embody somebody new for her. It took me a very long time to like this movie, but I do now: it's much, much more than this scene.

[@McPh1741]

This movie spawned a short lived TV series of the same name. It started Robert Hayes form “Airplane” as Starman. He returns to Earth and meets his son. They go on a journey to find Jenny, who is missing, and try to evade capture by the government.

[@44excalibur]

Thanks for watching Starman, Jen! 😃I'm glad you finally got to this one! Yes, that is Michael Douglas the actor who was the executive producer of this film. Michael Douglas was a producer on several films early in his career, and he'd been developing Starman with screenwriter Bruce A. Evans for several years at Columbia Pictures, which had also produced Steven Spielberg's Close Encounters of the Third Kind. Columbia agreed to do Starman after rejecting Spielberg's alien horror-themed "Night Skies" script, which was later developed into Poltergeist and E.T. The Extra-Terrestrial.

[@killianlpc]

Brought back great memories this was the first video we rented along with Christine ( a John Carpenter double ) when moved away from parents house to live with friends. A great heart warming film very much like E.T in one sense, but very much it's own film some great comedy moments in it also. Glad you enjoyed it.

[@MrBigPicture835]

I have actually been to the crater shown at the end of the film. It is mind numbingly huge. They no longer take people down into the crater as the path is a little risky. The gold record you mentioned was sent up in one of the Voyager series, all of them were intended to leave the solar system.

[@clarencewalker3925]

Let's not forget Charles Martin Smith in this film, one of Hollywood's unsung heroes of cinema. And a damned fine actor.

[@Madbandit77]

He was in the American Graffiti films, Sam Peckinpah's Pat Garrett and Billy The Kid and The Untouchables. He also directed the Dolphin Tale films and the Buffy The Vampire Slayer pilot episode.

[@44excalibur]

"OOOOOHHHHHHH, MMMMMMYYYYYY!!!" I knew you'd find a reason to say that watching a movie about an alien, Jen. 😂

[@luvlgs1]

i remember Jeff Bridges said that he studied how birds twitch, and the exaggerated gestures of japanese kubuki theater in preparing for this role. and btw Karen Allen is a great romantic lead...one of my all-time faves. keep on rockin

[@44excalibur]

Fun Fact: Several other directors were considered for Starman before John Carpenter was hired for the project. Columbia was concerned that Starman was too similar to E.T.: The Extra-Terrestrial, which caused several directors to leave the project, including Adrian Lynne(who left to do Flashdance) and John Badham(who left to do WarGames). Tony Scott(Top Gun) and Peter Hyams(Capricorn One, Outland) were also briefly hired to direct, but both left the project due to creative differences(Scott went on to direct Top Gun; Hyams directed 2010: The Year We Make Contact). John Carpenter was hired after having directed Christine for Columbia Pictures, and wanted Starman to be more of a cross-country road adventure than a straight science fiction movie, which resulted in the script being altered to accommodate Carpenter's vision.

[@galandirofrivendell4740]

Jeff Bridges was justifiably nominated for an Academy Award for best actor for his portrayal of the Starman.

[@ReelReviewsWithJen]

He was amazing!

[@takeoutartist]

His best performance!

[@gmunden1]

"From Here to Eternity" (1953)was a film starring Burt Lancaster, Frank Sinatra, Deborah Kerr, Donna Reed, and Montgomery Clift about WWII. The beach scene is famous.

[@KabukiKid]

One of the more underrated 80s sci-fi movies. Jeff Bridges was fantastic in this role... he was even nominated for an Oscar for his acting in this movie. I wish Karen Allen became even bigger than she got; she was always great. :-)

[@OneEyedJack1970]

Yeah, the golden record thing is real. They sent them out into space in the Voyager missions.

[@takeoutartist]

Voyager 2 left our solar system on 11/5/2018.

[@stephenniehaus8635]

The hidden beauty in this is that she's getting closure over her husband's death through this road trip

[@ReelReviewsWithJen]

Yes it was definitely an interesting approach to processing grief.

[@reesebn38]

I love this movie!! So many great directors crushed the 80s.

[@itt23r]

Starman is one of those great old '80s sci-fi movies that has largely been forgotten. Happy to see you found it. You may be the first reactor to do so. And for an encore I highly recommend another great and equally heartwarming 80s sci-fi that no one seems to remember, Francis Ford Coppola's, "Peggy Sue Got Married", starring Kathleen Turner and a very young Nick Cage. "Starman" is, as you say, like ET but from a young married woman's point of view. And "Peggy Sue Got Married" is a lot like that too. I'd describe it as "Back to the Future" but from that same perspective. It is also one of the best from that decade. So sad it has been forgotten. But you should definitely take a look. It seems right up your alley.

[@taoist32]

Starman has not been forgotten by anyone who’s seen it.

[@itt23r]

@@taoist32 Yup you are so right. It was a bad choice of words on my part and I stand corrected.

[@taoist32]

@@itt23r No problem. Maybe it’s forgotten by some, but I never forgot. A classic and timeless movie.

[@lynng9618]

John Carpenter's most benign sweetest film. It's been called ET for adults. What has stuck in my mind forever after I first saw it are the words "Red stop. Green go. Orange drive very fast." How very true!

[@chefskiss6179]

What a lovely selection, thanks for this!

[@tolar9]

In case no one answered it: The black and white movie clip was the iconic beach kiss between Burt Lancaster and Deborah Kerr in the film "From Here to Eternity."

[@TrentRidley]

I've been asking reactors to react to this film for 2yrs now and this is the first I've seen actually do it - not that Jen is one I have asked just to be clear, but I'm so glad to see that someone has finally reacted to this heart warming exploration of the human condition.

[@rogermorris9696]

To be honest Jeff Bridges,comes across as almost childlike in the way plays the alien. Also Michael Douglas the actor an the executive producer are the same person.

[@44excalibur]

Yes, Jen, most of Starman was filmed on location, in places like Meteor Crater, Barringer, Arizona; Monument Valley, Utah; Winslow, Arizona; Cedar Rapids, Iowa; Sedona, Arizona; Manchester, Tennessee; Jasper, Tennessee; Nashville, Tennessee; Smyrna, Tennessee; Las Vegas, Nevada; Chattanooga, Tennessee; Two Guns, Arizona; and Burbank, California. With a budget of $24 million, it was John Carpenter's second most expensive film after Big Trouble In Little China.

[@chefskiss6179]

Fabulous Baker Boys would be a pretty phenomenal follow-up at some point ;) I really think you'd enjoy it.

[@mwflanagan1]

I was so happy when I saw you reviewed this movie. Great cast, acting, movie and your review is on par with your always fun approach. Thank you, Jen.

[@ReelReviewsWithJen]

Thanks for watching! Glad you enjoyed the video!

[@oxhine]

Hey, Jen! This gentle love story is an aberration in Carpenter's filmography yet it is one of his best films. It's like an adult version of "E.T."! Carpenter did not write, score or edit this film either which is unusual for him. He was more like a director-for-hire. Jeff Bridges was nominated for an Oscar and Karen Allen has never looked lovelier. The black-and-white movie on the motel TV you failed to recognize which taught the alien to kiss was the enormously famous classic "From Here to Eternity" with Deborah Kerr and Burt Lancaster. The love scene in the surf is an iconic moment from that film that has been much referenced and parodied! A short-lived TV series spun out of this film in which the Starman returns to teach his son. Robert Hays of "Airplane" replaced Bridges. Yes, the actor Michael Douglas produced this and quite a few other films in the '70's and '80's. A moving, romantic gem.

[@AlanCanon2222]

As a fan of your Buckaroo Banzai reaction, it's nice to see you hitting these low key gems of the period. There's a surprising number of low and medium budget films that were truly original and sincere, but not smash hits, and Star Man is definitely in that category.

[@dh728]

Thank you for doing this beautiful film. The ending of the movie is incredible. You added some wonderful observations and insights in your summary

[@jpwcpa]

Starman was actually the second Hollywood movie to use the Voyager spacecraft (and the significant contributions of astronomer Carl Sagan to the project) as an important plot point. In 1979, two years after Voyager 1 and Voyager 2 were launched, Star Trek: The Motion Picture was released. The movie centered around the crew of the USS Enterprise encountering an advanced alien entity of artificial intelligence that went by the name "V'Ger" and its quest to travel to Earth and establish contact with its creator.

[@roryotoole3279]

John Carpenter's first film is a college film he made with the co-creator of Alien, Dan O'Bannon. Dark Star (1974) quirky, low budget, highly imaginative sci-fi classic cult film. When you mentioned Arizona it reminded me of a song in Dark Star by John Carpenter called "Benson Arizona". Please check out the movie, I think you'll really enjoy it

[@juliell2139]

When the NASA guy first got down into the spacecraft, the gold record was in there.

[@2dashville]

That movie he was watching was From Here to Eternity. One of my all time favorites. That would be a good one to react to.

[@vincegamer]

when I was Jen's age everyone knew the beach scene from that movie

[@gmunden1]

The "gold record" is a laser disc. It was sold in the 80's like a DVD to play music and films.

[@richardbuckendorf1390]

Thank you for finally checking out this one! This is one of the few movies that still hits me in the feels. Idk why. Think it's the music. Lol Here's a few I think you should check out: "Repo Man (1984) "Detention" (2011) "Return Of The Living Dead" (1985) "Freejack" (1991) "Cannonball" (1976) "The Driver" (1978) "Moving Violations" (1985) "Watchmen" (2009) "The Fanatic" (2020) "Donnie Darko" (2001)

[@WolfHreda]

Next underrated sci-fi movie suggestion: The Man Who Fell to Earth. It stars David Bowie. It's arguably not as popular as The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust, a movie inspired by his concept album of the same name.

[@justinplayfair4638]

I remember when I saw this in a theater it was mostly teenagers and people in they're 20's in the audience. But there were also two elderly women as well, who promptly got up and left once the baby started growing. I do wonder if they asked for their money back...

[@ronfehr7899]

The Winslow, Arizona song that were thinking of is called Take It Easy, sung by The Eagles.

[@alexflores7652]

He basically found one of the Voyager probes we sent out in 1977. We recorded sounds and images from Earth and how and where to find us. This is a great movie it was after Jeff did Tron in 1982. It's hard to believe that the Voyager Probes are still sending back data and that they have passed out into the interstellar space of the galaxy.

[@CassandrashadowcassMorrison]

FYI: Life-Force is based on the novel by Colin Wilson which is science fiction mixed with phenomenology (compared to the book the movie---made a year AFTER this---is garbage). THE TERMINATOR came out the same year as this, so any resemblance is coincidental. And the song you're trying to think of is "Tale it Easy" by THE EAGLES. FYI "Route 66" (once known as America's Highway) passed right through there. It's amazing to me how little young people know even though they have grown up with instant access to all the information on the planet .
