I really think it wasn’t.
 
|| I saw it like two weeks ago, and I found it just dreadful, besides the impressive for the time effects, the score, the humor with the beta unit and a few inspired moments in scene direction.
 
Nothing even remotely makes sense, including space, government, military, engineering, interior design and espionage, the sets and aliens looks cheap and unimaginative and gray. The alien recruiter just fly straight to the super secret star base, yet the fresh prince of douche is valuable to the invaders because he has this knowledge. His recruit is never checked for quality and only filtered out when he says he never wanted to be there in the first place, yet Centauri has already been given his money.  
The dialogue is awkward “tell don’t show” exposition most of the time without any effort to make it even remotely enjoyable, the acting is often awful, and the sequel baiting is cringeworthily woven into the main movie leading to 3 main bad guys who don’t even do stuff enough for one. The bad guys are pretty much useless and do next to nothing, the heroic self sacrifice of the comic relief is ultimately completely useless, and the love interest pretty much declares to empty air with glittering eyes how much she loves the main character over the burning dead body of the poor shmuck.  
90 minute movie with end credits, and the main guy only stops caring about saving his own bacon at the 72nd minute and gladly puts everyone he knows and presumably loves in the crossfire to cover his tracks from alien assassins.
 
They retcon the death of Centauri at the end, but never bothered to reshoot any scenes relating to his original death, so that feels super cheap too. ||

Weird on how he never showed up.

Wow, a Last Starfighter reference, I never though i’d see that lol

Best scene in the film, and the CGI wasn’t terrible, just primitive.

I didn’t think I’d see a last starfighter reference. It was surprisingly good.

OMG this whole thing is so adorable!  
hugs all of them

The Last Starfighter was much better than it had any right to be, true; the scene referenced in this comic is just one small reason why.

That movie.
 
I still fucking love that movie. Terrible CG and all.

Did Chrysalis just call Luna fat?

It’s fun to play pretend.

D’awwww…

I feel like this is one of those “behind the scenes” break everytime I see Chrysalis interacting with other character without being evil.

inb4 Chrysalislover I always wanted to say that.
 
Anyways, Chrysalis is best mommy. She kind of has to be considering she has so many.

Dawwwwww.
