So there's this great movie called WarGames with Matthew Broderick which I saw the other day. It's an older movie, but in spite of that they did a surprisingly better job of sticking to the possibilities of computer hardware and software than the most recent die hard was able to manage. Possibly my favorite part in that movie (movie) though comes from when in one of the scenes about 1/3rd in, Matthew's character is talking to I think his family downstairs in his house. The tv is playing in the living room and Matthew is in the front entrance next to the stairs and it seems the other person is in the kitchen, basically behind the camera. From the next room there is obviously a news telecast going on and there is this great line that gets cutoff by Matthew Broderick: "and in other news, a used prophylactic recycling facility was just [opened]" and it gets cutoff! My jaw dropped when I heard that, the guys making the background noises must have been having a good time. That little bit of trivia has yet to make it onto IMDB so I feel like I've discovered a secret gem that was hidden in plain sight. |
