The Last Starfighter & Ender’s Game: From Arcade to Epic Space Battles | SPACE OPERA Pt 14
Manage episode 379533782 series 2565879
Get ready for the second half of our Space Opera series as we dive into the exciting world of video games and epic space battles. First up, we’re rewinding the clock to 1984 to hop into the cockpit of The Last Starfighter, where arcade games become a recruitment tool for intergalactic warfare. Then, we fast forward to 2013 and join the battle academy in Ender’s Game, where young strategic minds are trained to lead humanity in an epic space conflict.
Join us as we explore how these films blend gaming with the grandeur of Space Opera and the timeless theme of the unlikely hero.
