Car: Dodge Viper (I wish!) Rep Power: 237    |  "WarGames" (film) "Shall we play a game?" http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0086567/ Stars a very young Matthew Broderick. Quote:
The kinda sad thing though is that while this movie was a thriller in it's day, it's now just a comedy due to the technology and terminology used in the film. Reminds me a lot of "Hackers".

Car: Golf LFS Status:  Rep Power: 40  | The movie is still a classic, IMO. I always like to watch it when its on. But to be honest even when I saw it for the first time the tech seemed outdated

Car: '06 Suzuki Katana, '02 Lexus IS300, '07 Ford F-150 Rep Power: 18 | It was on HDNet a couple weeks ago. I thought they did a fairly decent job of not oversimplfying the technology of the day. I mean, he was wardialing, they showed him using the coupler pictured above, etc. etc.

Car: 2004 Opel Astra 2.2DTI Rep Power: 45 | I liked it a lot. Especially the extremely crappy (by todays standards) computer voice that says 'do you want to play a game'. The idea behind it is cool though, and sort of the same as Terminator : what would happen if computers/machines took over? The outcome is the same too : one fuckered planet |
