Patrick Stewart is in Lifeforce(1985)! AAAAARRRGGGGHHHH! AAAAAAARRRGGGGHHHH!
AAAARRRGGGHHHH! Stewart played Captain Jean Luc Picard on Star Trek: The Next Generation and Professor X in X-Men(2000). I grew up looking up to this man!
I forget how young the new generation is and that they can't imagine a world where Patrick Stewart isn't the commander of the enterprise.
It's the same reaction I get (even though I was born in the early, early 70s) but it's the same reaction I get to Leslie Nielsen in "The Poseidon Adventure" when he was still a serious actor.
After his massive career in comedy, it's ruined that scene for me in Poseidon Adventure when he sees the wave coming and says something like, "Oh my God!" I lose it every time because I can only imagine him delivering stuff as a punchline. Even though he's being serious, I can't stop from busting out...
...For every man who has ever lived, in this universe, there shines a star.
-Arthur C. Clarke
The whole sequence with Patrick Stewart being possessed by the space girl was absolutely priceless.

Patrick Stewart was a great bonus. I had no idea he was in this. It was a good idea to add the female alien in that scene. Imagine how much funnier it would've been it if was all Patrick Stewart.
DISPLAY thy breasts, my Julia!
To the best of my knowledge, Sir Stewart's sole reason for taking this role was a serious need of some cash to repair his home.
shareI don't think you people actually like or respect or appreciate science-fiction if you can make fun of science-fiction / fantasy elements so easily. It's called IMAGINATION. I think anyone trashing movies like this could use some.
Get off your soapbox while I play you a tune on the tiniest violin.
