'''''{{PAGENAME}}''''' is a film of the 1980s.
Ben Crandall (Ethan Hawke) keeps having a dream about traveling over a circuit board. He then draws it and shows it to his brainy friend [[Geek|Wolfgang]], who builds the board which is able to create a force field bubble. The two boys, along with help from their new tough friend Darren, decide to build a spaceship out of old amusement park ride parts that when used with their new found technology gives them the ability to travel into space.▼

They create a spaceship and call it the "Thunder Road", and they fly into space. Not long afterwards, they explore an alien spacecraft that they get sucked into.

* [[Popcultural Osmosis]]: Pretty much how the aliens pick up stuff about Earth.
* [[Puppy Love]]: Ben is just a hair too old for his crush on Lori to be [[Precocious Crush|precocious]].
* [["The Reason You Suck" Speech]]: Ben's
* [[Shout-Out]]: Many many. The movie is littered with them, mostly as a result of the aliens' absorption of Earth culture, starting with Wolfgang's mouse [[Robert A. Heinlein|Heinlein]], and [[Bruce Springsteen|the ''Thunder Road'']].
* [[Space Pirates]]: The explanation given by Wak for {{spoiler|the aliens' father's}} ship engulfing theirs.
