    So I was so obsessed with this film as a kid that I wrote into one of those magazines that give you the “address of the star” and I was wrote back a letter and an autographed signed photo of Zenon herself Kirsten Storms. Fast forward to a move to Orlando and years later, I’m in my twenties. I end up becoming friends with her sister, and tell her somewhere in a box I still have this autograph. I show it to her and we have a giggle that she probably was sitting next to her or may have even signed it herself back in the day. Whelp when I finally met Kristen her sister proceeded to drunkenly yell “this is the girl who got your autograph and still has it” in the bar we all we hung out at. Cringe? Yes but still a funny story to come full circle 🤣

      I'm actually kinda jealous! I love Kirsten Storms! I babysat for some kids who were into Zenon, then Storms went to Days and now my fave, GH. I didn't really watch her on Days, but on GH? Maxie is one of my favorite characters. Kirsten Storms just adds so much sassy, chaotic energy to the role.

    I was probably the perfect age for this movie when it came out, probably 12-13 which is I think roughly the age they were aiming for. I always thought it was nice that they made the language a little complicated, because they didn’t dumb it down for young people but had fun sayings that we did actually say and friends and I still joke about now. She was a smart, assertive, caring friend, and communicative young woman. You also see her experience a completely new world that she’s never experienced and been told her whole life it would be nothing like what she sees it is. So she becomes more open minded. It has fun and goofy music, the feeling that parents aren’t listening to or understanding you which is something that a lot of kids that age could relate to. Not to mention, seeing her aunt overcoming her fears to support her niece because she knew she had to. Overall, for the time and age group it’s for, really a good movie. I still would totally watch. She was like our Nancy Drew of space.

      Yea that was the most frustrating part of this video for me lol. Like yea it definitely would be a complicated plot flor 3 year olds but it was made fr like 11-13 year old. Which is the age range of the first 2 Harry Potter movies. So if tweens can understand Harry Potter then a low concept sci fi shouldn’t be out of there realm of understanding lol. (I’m still not sure if she means literal 3 year olds or if she’s just saying that to be funny and just thinks it’s too complicated for like any kids in general ?)

    I remember watching this movie at a friend’s house when we were in 8th grade. We loved it in all of its ridiculousness. I remember the video phones they had and thinking there was no way that was ever going to happen. Turns out I was very wrong.

    Cetus-Lupeedus!!! Zenon Girl of the 21st Century is my favorite Dcom of all time!! I was like 12 when this first came out and I loved everything about it- the way they dressed and talked but I was especially fascinated with seeing their lives on a space station. It was really my first introduction to sci-fi. Now some 25 years later I'm obsessed with learning about the universe, space time, physics, time dialation- thank you so much for doing this movie!!

    I was 9 when this came out. I was OBSESSED with it and I still love it now. I watched it a couple of years ago and while it’s definitely cheesy, it’s still a fave. I don’t remember thinking it was too much information or too technical with terminology. But I was a space nerd growing up so I ate it all up. When I rewatched it as a 30 year old I don’t remember coming to any realizations or figuring things out that I hadn’t pieced together at 9.

    I believe the "(insert noun) major" is a reference to the Ursa Major constellation. And then for something small they use "(insert noun) minor" in reference to Ursa Minor. I'm pretty sure that is the only time they use the noun before the adjective in a way that is abnormal in English.
