Flight of the Navigator (Joey Cramer has been found)

Flight of the Navigator (Joey Cramer)

I just finished re-watching Flight of the Navigator, and the movie brings back so many fond memories of that time period. I remember watching it in the theater with my family. It was such a fun movie at the time, because I think every kid wanted to own his or her own time-traveling space ship.

Anyway, there have been people actively trying to find Joey Cramer, the main kid in the movie, for some time now. After doing about five-six movies, Cramer kind of disappeared from the movie scene.

Well, it looks like someone has found him. (Check out the picture of him here today)

This blogger has greater details into where he's hiding. (Make sure to check the side by side comparison on her blog.) It looks like him, and seems to have fared better than many of these other child actor, with the exception of working in retail.

((Reader Mobius01, aka "Karl S.," linked us to a an answerbag post entitled "Where is Joey Cramer?" On that site, one "Gordo" reveals that Joey "is working in a sporting goods store in Sechelt in B.C (on the Sunshine Coast)." He even provides a photo! Eagle-eyed readers will spot that the fan in the photo is holding a VHS of none other than "Flight of the Navigator." Is this really him? Let's do a quick side by side comparison: ))

This is why I love the Internet.

"You are the Navigator."

Great news!
its good to hear that Joey is alive and well, and judging from the picture, happy!
I hope someone can get Joey to maybe answer some questions as to what he's been upto and how life has been.
He was a great child actor. Flight of the navigator is a classic.
