Good old movie Ian, got it in my collection.
Also got the sequel to it,..... WARGAMES, The Dead Code .
Have you seen it ?? Its better than the original i think.
Released in 2007, stars Matt Lanter and Amanda Walsh.
Even Joshua, the original W.O.P.R. computer, and its maker, Professor Falken ( the original actor from the first movie), make an appearance in it.

The W.O.P.R. was hiding away in a power station, running it....................
You should see if you can find it, and have a watch.................
