Pee-wee's Big Adventure (1985)


A comedy directed by Tim Burton, starring Paul Reubens.
A young man's bicycle is stolen and he tries to retrieve it.
This film has some style. I didn't know that Tim Burton directed until I just looked it up. Makes sense. I like the Rube Goldberg machines and the Twisted Sister video clip the most. It is a very simple film, but holds some sentimental value to me. I always remember my sister being afraid of large Marge. Hence, I'm rating it good.

Flight of the Navigator (1986)


A science fiction by the Disney corporation, starring Paul Reubens a.k.a Pee-Wee Herman.
A boy goes for a walk and is missing for 8 years. He is committed to a mental home/army base and finds the spaceship that kept him for that time there. He boards the ship and flies it, returning information to the ship's computer (Pee-Wee Herman).
Despite this being from the freemasonic Disney corporation, it's an '80s classic. My favorite character is the Puckmaren, the "harmless" alien species that David befriends. There are very few main characters and the plot is super-clear. The picture is a not so great shot of the Puckmaren. I'm rating this good despite it's evil origins.
