I remember a drive-in screening of Clint Eastwood’s Firefox and Megaforce. Megaforce seems to have found a cult audience in 2023, and I don’t know if I’ve ever heard Firefox mentioned.

I’ve avoided both as even though I have positive feels of that particular night, I doubt the films were good.

MegaForce was such a disappointment. You figure that a movie directed by a stuntman would have great action, right? Nope.

Also, Persis Khambatta was in three bomb movies in a row. [not in exact order] MegaForce, Nighthawks, and Star Trek I

I’ve considered giving it a watch as I would have been around 8 that night, and I can imagine I was a bit young, especially if it was after my bedtime and following the high of Megaforce.
