Well the Imsai 8080 was already pretty outdated in 1983 as it was introduced in 1975 if I am not mistaken. So it would be availble pretty cheap by 83. Back in the 80s and 90s computer power rose exponentially and a system was basically outdated and worthless 2 years from being the top of the line. Today there is not much difference in a 5 year old computer and a new one regarding performance. Back in the 80s the difference was LIGHTYEARS.
@@eaglevision993 Yeah I gotta second this. It's a bit later than 1983 but in the late 80's I had both a fully kitted out Apple II *and* a Commodore PET come through my bedroom.

I'd have been about 8 to 10? Sadly they were given away to my cousin because when I finally got an Amiga my dad considered them obsolite. He didn't really know what we had (nor did I at the time, i guess) - two of the 1977 big three. Makes me die a little inside whenever i think about it.

I remember being a kid and wondering who voiced Joshua. My family said it was a computer, but I didn't buy it. If that's the case, why didn't we hear more systems use that style of TTS? After doing more research, I learned that Joshua was actually voiced by Prof. Falken, John Wood. To get the inflection correct, he recorded every line backward. Then, they edited the lines into the correct order and added the filter. "Shall we play a game" was recorded as "Game a play we shall" The more you know.
1:44 I love Arthur Rubenstein's orchestral leitmotif here. With just a couple of bars, you're instantly put into a sense of brooding about a new war with an old adversary. The symbolism of seeing such a simple choice on the screen and then choosing which side you want to destroy with a few keystrokes is also being described, I think.
I want to go back in time to when this movie was made and find all the super-cute girls like this that would date a guy who was this into computers in 1983.
Dude, back then only super rich people could own computers. It's not like it is today with a multiple computers in every household. And to have a basic dial-up internet in the 80s was about 300 bits per second through a Hayes Micromodem. And a setup like Matthew Broderick had costed close to 10,000 dollars. And that was early 1980s money. So you do the math after inflation. You either had to be really dedicated as a computer hobbyist to have one or have one for your job.
You are incorrect to say that only "super rich" people owned computers back then. There were plenty of families that owned computers (not like today of course) but home computers were treated more like a family appliance almost like the refrigerator or a television. The family would gather around in the living room most often to use one. In the early eighties there were plenty of 8-bit systems available for low prices as low as 595.00 dollars at the time. I think the main reason the adoption of the home computer took time was that people didn't quite understand the practical purpose of owning one. Its not like today were our entire society is accustomed to consumer technology. But yes you are correct the system that Lightman is using is not typical of any teenager or family home computer at the time.
That's two movies where Matthew Broderick uses a home computer to screw with his teachers. WarGames, and Ferris Bueller's Day Off. Don't blame him. If I had a computer back then, I would have also.
"People sometimes make mistak" Awesome to find that for the first time 35 years later. From one camera angle it says "mistakes," so this is a fun little message from the production about itself.
Yep, me too. Took a paper route and bough my self a commodore 64. Latter went to work in Trident submarines working on computers sending location data to fire control systems that programed nuclear missiles. Yep that movie changed my life.
so you were a spoiled suburbanite who's mommy and daddy bought you an amiga or commodore 64 back in '84 so you would shut up is what you are really saying ;)
That part was so funny: wants to play war games, hacks into the military computer, and then his father demands that he takes out the garbage NOW for the dog got in it and his mother asks is his little friend staying for dinner? Then he signs off and created chaos.
It was hilarious I’m still laughing looking up the clip an hour later after watching the movie. That’s got to be one of the funniest movie scenes in history involving bueller hacking into a computer game and sending nukes to America.
What’s fascinating about this scene is that three years later Ally Sheedy would be in Short Circuit, in a similar type of role (spellbound by robotics and technology).

I just watched a BTS special on the MGM channel and the director (John Badham) said that he asked John Wood (Professor Falken) to read his lines out of order whenever he was pretending to be the computer program “Joshua”. Wood asked him why he wanted that and Badham said it was because it would sound alot more like a computer randomly pulling words off a database. And it worked brilliantly.
I think watching her in Short Circuit as a child had a huge influence on what I find attractive. I also didn't realize Matthew Broderick was pretty good looking, too.
I had a TI-99 in 1979. My Grandfather was on the development team. It was the bomb in it's time. A whopping 16k of memoir. Saved on cassette tape. We are still waiting for the singularity.

Its a good job David chose to play as the Russians which the WOPR system would've been on the defensive side, causing the glitch showing the Russians targeting the US. If he played as the US then he would've launched the nukes by selecting Russian targets which the WOPR would've been on the attack.

I’ve always thought Matthew Broderick would’ve made a pretty good Peter Parker in an 80s Spider-Man movie
Now I’m sad we never got to see that.
WE GOTTA GO BACK IN TIME MORTY!
I thought the exact same thing
It was weird to see him as the dad this year in _No Hard Feelings,_ hiring Jennifer Lawrence's character to bang his introverted son.
Him or Michael J. Fox I thought would’ve made a great 80s Spider-Man
I watched this movie for computer class in middle school, around 2002. It's still so good!
That’s interesting. I first saw this in the movies at 7 years old in 1983. It was unlike anything I’d seen before. Blew my mind.
To regular people, this was a movie. To computer programmers, this was a nightmare scenario
It used to be 'Question authority.' Now, it's 'Question the algorithm.'

Of course, I never turn down a new recruit. The world doesn't have a zombie apocalypse by itself.
Edgar George Zomboss thanks boss right now I'm enjoying original pvz for DS
So what kind of zombie are you? Your profile photo could be deceiving.
I had a TI-99 in 1979. My Grandfather was on the development team. It was the bomb in it's time. A whopping 16k of memoir. Saved on cassette tape. We are still waiting for the singularity.
"Seattle"
There goes my favorite city
Talk about brilliant casting. This role was born for Matthew Broderick. I can't explain why. I don't think anyone could.
Amusing how @1:40 the machine already chooses the 2nd option (Soviet) :D
Yeah, I never noticed that back in the day
The fact it can carry a basic conversation, no matter how rudimentary, is astounding for the time.
I'll be the Russians
Literally every noob starting on a wargame
command and conquer red alert
as a russian I can say it's pretty funny to watch this from the other side
@@1fromoutside Do you usually play as the Americans?
Company of Heroes 2
Never invade Mother Russia in winter, is suicide comrade.
Thermonuclear Warfare : Most, unfortunately, it's not a matter of if, but rather when.
Guys I found a continuity error. When Joshua asks him what side he wants it says 2 after at about 1:42
Just realized that the shot at 1:11 has the word "mistakes" spelled incorrectly lol
The mother of all movie Easter Eggs...to err is human.
I love the glow of phosphor in text mode... still using CRTs today.
Winter Soldier brought me here
Me too
who? if you care to drop references, at least bother to explain
@@fQsfHi watch the winter soldier movie and you will understand
thanks
A strange game...
Would you prefer a nice game of chess?
Please don’t touch anything reference
Nope. It's a reference of this movie in Please Don't Touch Anything
The scene where she came into the game room and asked him to change her grade while he was playing Galaga, he still had lives left when it said game over! Lol
When Hawaii had that missile launch scare a couple years back, I immediately thought of this movie. "Why the hell didn't we get a launch detection?!"
They scared people a few years ago with that, but this year didn't want to alert people to a raging firestorm that swept through the town because they thought they might panic and run into the flames! 💩for 🧠
2022 and here we are!
One of my favorite movies! My mom was concerned!
I had a huge crush on Jennifer when I watched this movie when I was 16 in 2016. Very sad to her I'm 23 and she's 60 lol
I was watching this on tv last night and I noticed a mistake in the movie in the scene in the arcade where ally sheedy comes in and he’s playing Galaxian he loses a life on Galaxian and it’s still showing that he has 2 lives left in the game but when they turn back to the Galaxian machine all of a sudden he has no lifes remaining and he says you owe me a quarter
Back when computers were a CRT, tower and took 25 minutes to boot
But the printer worked and did not have to buy ink as a typewriter ribbon. Lasted for months.
Wow. They really knew how to make movies at that time! Now they are absolutely clueless outside of a remake/reboot or superhero movie
Agree 💯%
I was 1yr old when movie came out and stil love this movie.
Am watching it right now on Amazon prime.
1:30 reaction of a true Stellaris player
Absolutely love this movie...
SEATTLE!
(I love you btw but omg they make me laugh with this)
0:00-2:07 - *Joshua:* *GREETINGS PROFESSOR FALKIN.*
*David Lightman:* We're in! _[Jennifer laughs]_ It's thinks I'm Falkin! _[typing]_ Hello.
*Joshua:* *HOW ARE YOU FEELING TODAY?*
*Jennifer Mack:* How can it ask you that?
*David Lightman:* _[to Jennifer]_ It'll ask you whatever it's programmed to ask you. You wanna hear it talk?
*Jennifer Mack:* Yeah.
*David Lightman:* _[turns on speaker]_ I'll ask it how it feels. _[typing]_ I'm fine. How are you?
*Joshua:* _[electronic voice]_ *EXCELLENT. IT'S BEEN A LONG TIME. CAN YOU EXPLAIN THE REMOVAL OF YOUR USER ACCOUNT ON JUNE 23, 1973?*
*David Lightman:* They must have told that he died. _[typing]_ People sometimes make mistakes.
*Joshua:* _[electronic voice]_ *YES, THEY DO.*
*Jennifer Mack:* How can it talk?
*David Lightman:* _[to Jennifer]_ It's not a real voice. Uh, this box just interprets signals from the computer, and turns them into sound.
*Joshua:* _[electronic voice]_ *SHALL WE PLAY A GAME?*
*David Lightman:* _[heartfelt]_ _Ohhh._
*Jennifer Mack:* _[chuckles]_ I think it missed him.
*David Lightman:* Yeah. Weird isn't it? _[typing]_ Love to. How about Global Thermonuclear War?
*Joshua:* _[electronic voice]_ *WOULDN'T YOU PREFER A GOOD GAME OF CHESS?*
*David Lightman:* _[typing]_ Later. Let's play Global Thermonuclear War.
*Joshua:* _[electronic voice]_ *FINE.*
*David Lightman:* _[happily]_ Alright! _[amazed]_ Wow.
*Joshua:* _[electronic voice]_ *WHICH SIDE DO YOU WANT?*
*David Lightman:* I'll be the Russians.
*Joshua:* _[electronic voice]_ *PLEASE LIST PRIMARY TARGETS.*
*David Lightman:* Who should we nuke first?
*Jennifer Mack:* Um, oh, let's see. How 'bout...Las Vegas?
*David Lightman:* Las Vegas. Great. What next? Seattle!
*Jennifer Mack:* Yeah! _[laughs]_ Good one. - David should've realized right then and there that it was a bad idea.
I always thought Seattle a bit random but understood the Las Vegas choice
Best part was that it actually showed the game on the official board in the control room
The computers voice is actually the actor who plays Dr. Faulkner.
John Wood
@@deborahsmith8925 Thank you 😃
awesome, I grow up as a teen in Seattle same time this movie was made there, its nice to see the place in the movie, good memories.
Ally Sheedy was so unbelievably sweet and hot in this!
This is me setting up a BBS and its dial-up equipment. I'm feeling the same excitement then! xD
Is it a catalyst of Chat GTP ?
Matthew Broderick? What have you done ? This movie, the military
Ingersoll Lockwood sent me....
WWG1WGA
A movie about Ai destroying civilization
Oh shit son.These kids have no idea what they are doing...
AI has been around for a long time.
I would rather have played "Theaterwide Biotoxic and Chemcial Warfare" instead
It had better graphics
Nah. Conventional warfare is what you’re after
@@josephstalin6549 how you gonna tell someone else what THEY are after?
@@Rsmith420 He's a Communist. It's what they do.
Kind of sad no one picked Maniac Mansion actually.
God what a timeless film I saw it on the big screen in 1983 I was in high school and will never forget those terrifyingly days of the Evil Empire and ABCs the Day After 100 million Americans were slapped by the terror of a mass extinction event identical to what wiped out dinosaurs 65M from the asteroid impact . Nuclear winter plummeting global temps no way to grow food for years the planet humans and the biosphere starve to death and die from radiation contamination. It’s no game the only way to win is never to play PERIOD!
Who's here today, 2/22/22? Want to play a game?
War games the computer was serious
Ally Sheedy 😍
This film produced one of the most iconic drum and bass samples ever. 2 degrees
Did anyone else come from Ready Player One
Guilty reader of the Oasis here
Cassie Tad Came from the movie, but the book is great! Just finished another read-through last week. :)
Cassie Tad omg lmao meeeee i came searching for the arcade scene to see if he was getting the lines correct
People know this novel? YES T^T
Yes
0:26-0:30 - *David Lightman:* _[typing]_ I'm fine. How are you?
What a load of crap...has anyone seen a 'Girl' get so excited about a computer War Game ?
Russell Palmer Back when it it was set it would have been enough to amaze anyone
Shit 1983... didn't think it was that old.
Russell Palmer The year I graduated college. Wow, I must be really old. LOL
I don't know, different people have different tastes
Modern war games are fps games such as counter-strike, team fortress and call of duty. Many girls play those games, so actually it is quite accurate.
OK Google, let's play a game of Global Thermonuclear War.
How close we are to reality! 😔
Wake up. Uprising in UK 100,000 gathering in Trafalger square Aug, 2024 against fake news and government not protecting citizens and jailing citizens for objecting to muslim grooming gangs and rapes 2024. Better find the censored news. Ongoing across the world country depopulation and replacement. Find it.
Which side do you want?
1. United States
2. Soviet Union
“iLl bE tHe RuSsIaNs.”
I thought Ally Sheedy was the cutest girl on the planet when I saw this as a teenager
Its a good job David chose to play as the Russians which the WOPR system would've been on the defensive side, causing the glitch showing the Russians targeting the US. If he played as the US then he would've launched the nukes by selecting Russian targets which the WOPR would've been on the attack.
1:49 computer voice crack
bruh
"Shall we play a game?".....
"Global Thermonuclear War"
