BEEP! Time is up! You lose...

And such a nice prize too boot! Oh well. vbg

Last night at movie theaters across America they had a special 25th Anniversary screening of War Games. How appropriate that it was shown from a digital source. Our showing had a technical issue at one point and the movie screen displayed the MicroSoft Windows Vista operating system screen! vbg

The movie was preceded by cast and crew interviews. Leonard Goldberg (Executive Producer) commented that they did a special screening of the movie for the people at NORAD. The "brass" commented on how spacious the Command Center was, when it was actually smaller and rather cramped. The lower ranked personnel commented on how the large, wall-mounted display screens were in color, while the real ones were in black and white! vbg Interesting that Dabney Coleman (Dr. McKittrick) and John Wood (Dr. Falken) were not interviewed.

All-in-all, it was fun!
