No wonder they got this movie's director to do the first Captain America movie. He managed to encapsulate the whimsical nature and unapologetic cheesiness of the Golden Age Superhero without completely divorcing it from reality or modern-day excitement and appeal! Joe Johnston is amazing.
It’s the best superhero movie, because the Rocketeer is the almost unwitting, almost reluctant neighborhood hero. The Eagle Scout, the bystander who lifts the car off the unconscious crash victim, the fireman rescuing the stranded kitten from the tree, the self-conscious Jimmy Stewart too shy to ask his favorite girl for a date. This is who he is is. He is us, and we are him, and we can fly. We can FLY!
Am I the only one who as a kid made a rocketeer helmet and rocketpack out of a cardboard box...used sunglasses lenses for the eyes and rode down the street on my bike that way? It even had the fin in back...LOL
Dustin Strong When I was little after watching this multiple times, my dad made me the helmet out of a Schwan’s ice cream bucket and cardboard, and I used one of my brother’s Ghostbusters proton back pack as the rocket.

I love that period of the late 80s early 90s where the early 20th century was in vogue as the setting for adventures, Indiana Jones, Dick Tracy and the Rocketeer, the last decent adventure from that period was the first Captain America which was done by the same director who did this, he had a knack for these period pieces.
One of the best byproducts of the Indiana Jones franchise is that its success gave rise to an entire micro-subgenre of action adventure films that tended to take place in more quaint historical settings, like The Jungle Book (1994), The Mummy (1999), and of course this particular feature.

Well it did got a Disney jr show with a girl rocketeer this time but dont worry you do see the original rocketeer and it’s voice by the actor who played the rocketeer in this movie
@@riofanl3638And the girl Rocketeer happens to be the great-granddaughter of the original Rocketeer! They kept the Rocketeer legacy in the Secord family!
I ran around my backyard as "The Rocketeer" for several summers as a kid. Pretending to kick Nazi butt. This movie deserves so much more attention, keep flying high Rocketeer 😉
A similar airshow event would happen decades later involving the descendants of Cliff and hopefully Jenny. Son Ambrose, Grandson David, and of course great granddaughter Katherine.
Recently, Disney Junior released a re-imagined version of the Rocketeer story for children, starring a 7-year old girl named Kit Secord. There's a certain charm to the Rocketeer because he seems more "real" compared to Iron Man.
Disney Junior’s Rocketeer is not just a re-imagined version of this film. It’s actually a distant sequel. Kit Secord is Cliff Secord’s biological great-granddaughter. Kit is just continuing her ancestor’s heroic legacy.
What really amazes me about billy's work is that he was able to become almost unrecognizeable in many roles he played... its hard enough bringing something on paper to life, but to do it in a way where even the audience goes wait, is that billy campbell? That takes talent
@@spartanrangers7451 I was thinking maybe in modern times. Maybe Cliff comes out of retirement to fight an old enemy or something like that. But it could be set in the 50's though, that's a great setting 😊
yhea if its cgi or looks like crap and if it really is a miniature it's no wonder why modern effects dont use them anymore, there was a reason James Cameron made the alien queen a life sized puppet and not a forced perspective toy or a 3d render
Dont get me wrong I love marvel and some what of dc..but as a child growing up the rocketeer was my first true super hero along side the phantom and the shadow and most of all meteor man. Wish movies can bring back the good old days
The main premise that I remember about this movie...which a loved as a kid was it offered the ideal and most importantly the possibility that the impossible was possible
I've loved the Rocketeer ever since i was 7 or 8 now i'm 12 and i still love this movie, I always wondered how it felt like not flying with a plane but a rocket-pack.
I wanted to be the rocketeer for Halloween but they didn’t make a kids costume. My dad made me a jet pack out of a cardboard box and super soaker water bottles and it was AWESOME. Used a Han Solo dl 44 for the gun too.
I know it's the rage and I'm not 'woke' but I would love to see a reimagining with an African American protagonist specifically a Tuskegee airman vet. It'd be amazing. Anyone agree?
Disney "We need franchises that we can build up to help with our bottom line." Creative people "What about Tron?!" Disney "No, no. That's no good. As a matter of fact, let's cancel that animated series we have going." Creative people "Um...Okay, what The Rocketeer!?" Disney "No, no. That movie failed to make money. It's a waste."
Jenny would have been proud if she knew about Cliff's discovery and saw him in action in this scene. Sure, she would be worried as heck, but knowing he saved another man's life while risking his own would have had her beaming ear to ear.
I want to be a hero like The Rocketeer!! My all time favorite superhero, and my childhood hero, bring him back please! I know that Disney Junior show exits, but it's just not the same without Cliff Secord.
I attached a plush rocker to my 4-year old boy's back with my belt and he "flew" around the house for hours. I think we all have had the dream of flying like this one time or another in our life!
Awesome movie, but I would take peebies pick-up instead of the rocket, that truck is way killer... but then there's Jennifer Connelly,I mean check out those rocketeers. I say GOD DAM!
I didn't know this movie existed until I bought a mini nintendo & it had "the racketeer" game save in it so I decided it to Google it I like it this character looks like if captain America & starlord had a baby 😆
I like how realistic it feels, when you see cg iron man you know it’s fake and isn’t really possible but when I see this it feels real. The sound effects help a lot. Him consistently falling of the plane would practically happen, in marvel movies the super hero would have some gadget that sucks them onto whatever they are grabbing. But here it just feel more realistic.
Interesting fact: The director Joe Johnston went on to direct Captain America The First Avenger, citing the Rocketeer as great experience for being able to pulp 1940s tone .
One of my favs growing up. Always wanted a jetpack since then. Although, this type of jetpack does not exist, I did purchase a water jetpack which I feel satisfies my childhood dreams!
What’s crazy is “Jan” from The Office (US), is the singer at the Sea Side Club. Blew my mind when I saw her singing. It made me wonder if she was singing about Hunter in the song lol
That's an emergency landing pad. For in the event of a pilot needing to abandon his craft and parachute down he can direct his trajectory to that pad and land without major injury.

The special effects still holds up pretty well but dated none the less. You can tell the effects are optical. The outline of his body up against the background. Industrial Light and Magic designed the effects for this movie. I was more impressed with ILM"s effects for the film Innerspace (Released four years earlier).
Victor Creed the rocketeer shots were done with a miniature model that was posable. Then used stop motion to create its movements for whatever scene they were shooting.
The Disney Jr. Rocketeer is biologically related to the original Rocketeer. The Disney Jr. Rocketeer is the original Rocketeer’s great grandchild. So, after the events of this film, Cliff eventually married his sweetheart and had children.
While it is one of life’s great unfairnesses that this film was a box office disappointment when it first came out (Nice going Jeffrey Katzenberg and your finite wisdom, releasing it the same weekend as City Slickers, Dying Young, and Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves), I’m so pleased by the cult following that it has developed over the years. And if it didn’t make a profit because of the number of times I rented it back in the 90s, then I don’t know what……

That cgi is about as topnotch as some of today's modern cgi
What good stories used to be about.
the plane was sabotage by Frankenstein when he realize that the rocket is not on the plane
Using a piece of tech that not only he never tested but was only theory at the time. That’s why Rocketeer is one of my favorite super heroes.
Let's give MAJOR props to the late composer James Horner who scored this scene with incredible orchestral music.
He’s on par with John Williams
He's on my Mount Rushmore of composers:

I agree. This was a an underrated superhero movie from a time before superhero films became popular.
It’s the best superhero movie, because the Rocketeer is the almost unwitting, almost reluctant neighborhood hero.

True. However, coming out around the same time as Terminator 2 probably didn't help.
