War Games Coming To Theatres For Encore RoundBy Katey Rich: 2008-06-25 16:39:26
Think of some of the movies you really want a chance to see on the big screen. The Wizard of Oz? Lawrence of Arabia? Star Wars? Would you ever, ever put War Games, the 1983 Matthew Broderick thriller, on that list? No, me neither.But, lucky us, we will have the chance to see War Games in theaters this summer—on July 24, the movie will screen for one night only in select theaters across the country, thanks to NCM Fathom, a company that specializes in special theater events. It’s the 25th anniversary of the movie, and the Fathom website boasts that never-before-seen interviews will be part of the July 24 screening, along with—brace yourselves—exclusive footage from the sequel. War Games: The Dead Code appears to be one of those direct-to-video sequels starring a bunch of people you’ve never heard of, so I guess we can at least be thankful they’re not remaking the original. Yet. Honestly, I like the idea of bringing back a classic movie and turning it into a one-night-only event. Not that War Games is what I immediately think of when I think “classics,” but it’s a fun movie with a lot of nostalgia power behind it that could bring 80s kids to the theaters in droves. Here in New York, outdoor screenings of movies like Back to the Future and Goonies draw huge crowds, but of course, those are free. So dig up your Matthew Broderick pinups, cue up the old Macintosh Lisa computer, and get ready to cause havoc with some of the most primitive computer technology ever seen in the movies.
