After all these years I still love this movie!

Thankfully Tish had that 16 foot long belt.

This is one of those forgotten gems from the 80s. I love it when I remember a movie like this that I haven't seen or thought about in 30 years on a lazy Saturday afternoon.

Kate Capshaw, aka Mrs. Steven Spielberg, is so pretty and very intelligent. I’ve always enjoyed her work.

"Luke, Luke! Use the Force, Luke! Stretch out your feelings. The Force is always with you."

Ever notice that when Trish is doing morse code, she blinks every time? You're welcome for never being able to unsee that

Yes kids...34 years later Max will win an Oscar for Joker.

Great movie I loved this movie when I was a kid! The 80s were an awesome decade to live in so was the 1990-2000 and then everything sucked after that!

IN MEMORY OF THE SPACE SHUTTLE!!

Back when race, religion and sexuality didn't define a strong female lead roles script or female supporting vast. This film has aged fantastically and deserves far more credit.

Ok, I almost peed myself when Tate Donovan did Obi Wan.

Kelly Preston died July 22 2020 space camp as Tish for space camp movie. Max sounds like Luke Skywalker and the movie from Star Wars fourth New Hope. Kevin as like Obi-wan kenobi

I love this movie, as we say in the trade, a cracklin good yarn!

I love this movie I love all them great movies from the eighties the eighties was the greatest decade for music and the greatest decade for movies Gotta love it.

kelly preston was actually 23 when she did this film..god she was hot..and still is..damn that jhon travolta is a lucky man!

I always wondered how Tish's short belt wrapped around Max like a million times over lol

aw man this was my all time favorite movie as a kid, thank you for posting

why do people have to pick films apart? its a story, something out of someone's imagination why does it have to make sense. except for true stories anything is possible

turned into the longest belt ever xD

"Kevin, you did this in the simulator, cmon!" Yep, because a simulator is exactly like a billion dollar shuttle out in space. Yep, just the same! (How many times must I say I love you, before you finally understand? Forever man, reever man)....

I loved this movie so much as a child. Can't help but laugh at how stupid it is now. Oh well, I still like it. :)

i recently watched a documentary on the sodium lamp film making technique and the shot of the orange tinted shuttle made me realize that they used it for this film because sodium lamps are bright orange and would cause that effect i made a audible gasp and went "they used sodium lamps"

Totally awesome movie, and how I wish I could experience zero g......so cool

Ah yesm when you could still smoke indoors, and at your console

Just realized Max legs are not long enough to anchor himself in the zero gee toilet. No wonder it stressed him out.

Can you imagine floating out into space like that in a chair?? Omg totally terrifying

Would have been super cool to have some Star Wars music when Max was needing helping.

of all of the things in this movie...having kids go aboard a multi-billion dollar machine for a test, after being in Space Camp for less than a week, Space Camp being magically transported to Florida so they can go out at night and look at the launch pad, a robot ensuring that the kids go up into space, a hardwired communication that apparently is not hardwired, a belt for a petite girl wrapped around many times around a clunky space suit, the cargo bay doors not being opened as soon as the shuttle reached orbit, oh and the one guy at mission control not at his post during the sos; the lack of oxygen perhaps is the most believable part to this entire movie

I like the name Daedalus better than I like it for International Space Station.

Gee, they must of had some real good hairspray.

I went to band camp when I was their age.

13.21. Yeah that would be me. I've skydived before but the idea of floating through absolute nothingness in space scares me to death.

Who puts O2 tanks in out of reach places? When they get back she better have a chat with whom ever put them there!!! And i love how long Tisha's belt is on max!! You can wrap it around her waste ten times!!1

Can you imagine the waist size that Belt was made for.

I think this film is good because it gives us normal children that they could go to space

Pretty much the most terrifying toilet ever invented.

Mission control can bring them back in on auto control but not send them to a higher orbit to the space station. Hey look guys Mission control sent us on auto pilot to were there's more O2. The shuttle is also hard wired for com's they do not remove them to replace them with "short ranger radio's"??? That being said I still love this movie!!!

When you look past the, uhm, adventurous, circumstances, it is a rather timeless story, kids growing up in 90 minutes/kids having to find their mettle and teamwork capacity in crisis. Kate Capshaw was a teacher before she went to Hollywood, hence a natural casting choice. Coinciding with the challenger disaster was unfortunate, but in hindsight, actually doesn't denounce this movie inappropriate.

Someone forgot to pack the “perri-air”.

cute story...do the challenger learning center

Now was this before or after the release of "Howard The Duck" because 1986 must've been a trying year for Ms. Lea Thompson!

Kelly Preston was so young

Was two Spacestation in Space in Planned ?

as if they'd be chomping on a candy bar in space hahaha this is soooo far fetched but at the same time I love it for its total innocence !

Early Leaf Phoenix

I wonder what alec guiness thought of the part where kevin imitated obi wan Kenobi

13:47 Funny guy, It look silly to said the line from Star Wars, if your the Star Wars fan, you can do anything that from the movie.

wait, how did they go from 12 hours to 1 hour? unless they were on a completely different orbital plane. that rendezvous should have taken less than 2 hours. accounting for use of the airlock, that brings the 10 hours down to about 8 and a half hours, pressurization of an EVA suit would take bring them down to about 7 hours just pointing out a flaw in logic, not even gonna mention how many abort modes could have prevented this whole incident

check out Terry O'Quinn from Lost

Major space freak out and nobody notices the blinky red light?

Hope did the kid playing MAX turn into the JOKER year's later.

Yes Rich and Tish passed away

Did NASA have a space station in the 1980s?

omg tish kissed max 9:39

I didnt know this existed. Its just as bad as i thought lol

The only thing I don’t like about this movie is that robot.

You have to love HOLLYWOOD WHAT A CROCK OF SHIT But still It is a Great Movie

How convenient! A space station with oxygen is within reach in a few minutes despite a completely unplanned launch and a really big Earth!

Hey, at 1:10 we have two women communicating about something other than a guy.

This movie is horrible but I cannot not watch something with the space shuttle in it.

Would this movies PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE, FOR CHRIST'S SAKE, stop acting like it knows anything about Star Wars??!!?

No.blondes know morse code.. She was studying for something else entirely

Ok bad joke🤷
