Hey guys.
I'm trying to remember the name of a movie I watched as a kid.
It was on a video cassette (remember those?), and I remember my mom hired it for me from a library. I was born in '88, so I'm guessing that I would've watched it mid-late 90's. That said, I have absolutely no idea when the video might have been made.
I'm also from Australia, and it's a possibility that this was an aussie video, not released in other countries. Anyway, here's what I remember of it:
- It was actually 2 (or possibly 3) separate but related stories on one video.
- First story involved some kids predicting when a meteorite would land, and trying to find it before some evil authorities did. They ended up tracking it down to an old junk-yard, and while the authorities were using a powerful electro-magnet to suck it out of an oil pool, one of the kids discovered that it had actually crashed into a 'Ford Meteor' car.
- Second story involved one of the kids hacking into a government computer to find out some information about a satellite. The satellite crash landed, and the kids tried to find it before some evil guys on motorbikes could.
From my vague childhood memory of it, this video was absolutely awesome. I recently realized that the inspiration I got from that movie has gone on to shape my life in pretty big ways. As such I'd love to track it down for nostalgia purposes.
Any suggestions?
