Flux Capacitors #5. Flight Of The Navigator (1986)

After a fateful night in the woods, David wakes up 8 years in the future. His family assumes he’s dead, his younger brother is now his older brother, and his head is full of star charts to a distant alien world. Joe invites John Stahl back to the show to break down the nostalgic craziness of Flight of the Navigator.
