Starman

Why has there been a sequel to this movie? The ending seems prime for a repeat.
Of all the things they've brought back, it amazes me they've missed this one.

After that they should do a movie called
The Last Last Starfighter

Because they have yet to figure out a way to do a movie that's a cross between Alien, The Day The Earth Stood Still (1951 & 2008) and Enemy Mine (1985) .... which is the only way a sequel would make sense while giving them an outlet to spread more SJW woke nonsense.
Half alien baby is born but kills mother in childbirth when it pops out of her chest rather than her Va Jay Jay .... grows up with enormous power and wants humans to quit with the global warming or threatens extermination of species. Crazy SJW butch lesbian appeals to his half human side and convinces him to drop light ball inside her how they go about doing such things .... and he decides to give humans another chance for at least one more generation or until the next remake whichever comes first.
If you have to ask "why Enemy Mine?" then you either have never seen it or simply forgotten the reproductive scene which appealed to the transexual community some 3.5 decades ago.

Starman is so underrated. It was Carpenter’s take on a Spielberg movie. It gets overlooked because Carpenter has so many classics under his belt, but it really is one of his best

They did make a sequel, except it was a short-lived TV show on ABC in the late 80s. Robert Hays took over Jeff Bridges’ role. If I remember, the basic plot was him returning to Earth, meeting up with his son (who was a teenager at this point), and them searching for Karen Allen’s character.
I’m not even sure the show made it a full season before being cancelled.

My dad had this recorded on vhs from HBO. After it ended tractor pulls cane on next
I’d like to watch it again now that I’m older, but I remember a good bit of it. Some jokes I didn’t understand back in the day, like when he stares at the guy in the men’s room and the guy thinks he’s a homo.

Decent flick in its day. I've watched it several times over the years and enjoy it even if it gets a bit hokey from time to time.

I think we should start a movement on this board for more people to see this movie.
I had it recorded on Betamax when I was a kid and watched it so many times.
I recently showed it to my 15 yr old when it came on STARZ or something and he absolutely loved it.
such an underrated movie

Bridges wants to do it.

As Bridges has said before, he thinks a “Starman” sequel could be pretty straightforward since the sci-fi romance, like “The Big Lebowski,” ends with his character about to become a dad.
“It’s all set up, very much like ‘Lebowski,’ like the Little Dude. The Dude in the oven,” he said. “In ‘Starman,’ Karen Allen, she’s got a bun in the oven as well.”
We mentioned to Bridges that we had an interview coming up with Carpenter, the director of “Starman,” about the sequel to Carpenter’s horror classic “Halloween.” Anything he wanted us to pass along?
“Just say that Karen Allen and I have been jammin’ on different ideas,” Bridges said.
He added that he was “a little disappointed” to learn that another “Starman” project has been announced. He said the people behind the new film, from “Stranger Things” veteran Shawn Levy, apparently have not reached out to him.
“I was a little disappointed to hear that they’re making a sequel to it already, I think it’s underway… or they’re redoing it or something. … I don’t think we’ve been contacted. I don’t now if John has, but I’d be curious.”
We contacted Levy, who said in a statement: “‘Starman’ is very much in the script development stage still and the timeline for if and when it will go into production is still unclear. As a huge fan of the original film and these incredible actors, I would absolutely do everything in my power to involve them in some meaningful way, should I get the privilege of telling a new version of this amazing and poignant story.

This movie is truly a classic and one of Jeff Bridges' best performances IMO. If you watch the little nuances in the way he moves you can tell he really put a lot into this role. I read somewhere that he studied the movement of birds to prepare for the part.
I own the movie on Amazon and other than the obvious 80s special effects, it still holds up today in my opinion.

I grew up in Chattanooga and remember they filmed most of the first part of the movie around Chattanooga and up I24 toward Monteagle.
