You could make a very cool War Games movie now. It might be a stretch to believe but it also could be exciting.

Starring Kim Jon-il. I've heard the AI system is built on the Microsoft Vista kernel. Once it fully understands what it's made from, it kills itself, but only after answering 250 UAC requests for access.

Like Genghis, I'm bemused at another reviewer referring to this as a "cult classic." Athough , to be fair, perhaps he meant the Jonestown Cult, or Scientology.The original was facile, poorly acted trash. I hardly think a remake would improve things.

Another reviewer called this a cult classic. I hope it is not as the original was one of the dumber flicks I on which I wasted my hard earned dead white man portraits. I remember those feckless kids farting around with the computer while the mope of professor sits opened mouth; struck speechless, I suppose, by the blinding genius tick tack toe business.
On the other hand, how could the remake be worse?

Another 80's film which became a cult classic, yet they decide that it could make a few bucks if they remade it.This film was released when there was still some paranoia about the "Reds" and this film plays on those fears with stereotypical, inaccurate views of computers which were at the time still relatively new to homes.Seeing the trailer for the remake I can only wonder what they were thinking when they commissioned this film. I like the original, and would watch it again - this new one? No, even if I give it a chance I can't see me watching it more than once.
