Obviously not aimed at us older fans, and the little guys can forgive the nonsensical super-strength, I guess.
Too bad we never got more of the REAL Rocketeer on film. But I don't have any ill feelings towards the new show. Nor any desire to watch it.
The Rocketeer returns!

Interesting. I remember I liked the first one a lot.
. The modern update sounds awesome.

You can’t just have your characters announce how they feel! That makes me feel angry!

Re: Rocketeer follow-up with Female Rocketeer
Merged the two posts on this into the dedicated Rocketeer sequel thread, hence gaastra and Dan's posts.
Okay, so kind of sucky title aside, this actually doesn’t sound like it could be all bad! And the timing should place this firmly in the golden age era of the early 1950s cliffhanger serials that gave us…Rocket Man! So there's some cool potential to be had here, especially if they do catch up with an ageing Cliff Secord, who passes the pack on to the new Rocketeer, and get Joe Johnston back to direct!
