Or maybe it would be more accurate to say goodbye. Yes, that’s right boys and girls its time again to play the Holy Shit Hollywood remake of the week.

This week Hollywood will rape a true classic that taught the world about the glamorous life of a computer hacker in the 1980s. Wargames.

Important lessons here. Used to be computer hackers had to have skills and put forth serious effort to nearly kill millions of people. Today all they have to do is play mumorpugers. So keep that in mind all you WoW players out there. One wrong click and you could possibly wipe out all of civilization.

Other than that we can see that where the original gave us a somewhat realistic view of the technology and behaviors of the era this new one has taken it’s cue from Hackers (the visually fun crapfest with a great soundtrack and Angelina Jolie) by showing something that more or less has no relation to an actual computer (other than a massive power drain due to all the fucking lights these Hollywood douche bags think come on every high tech piece of equipment these days) and calling it one.

In any case this one didn’t even garner a petition to get it on the big screen and thank goodness for that. These days it’s the small things we can be thankful for.

How this slipped under my radar I will never know.

That may be the single most exciting movie trailer I have seen since Dark City. I want this to be good. I want this to be pretty. I want this to be violent and beautiful. I want this to come out on the big screen. This even beats out The One-Armed Machine Girl in my list of movies I want to see right now. Luckily this one is supposed to be coming out next month.

Check out the Official Site which is kind of broken in places.
Hit up their MySpace page as well.

Can’t wait to see this one.
