WarGames: This Won't Hurt a Bit at FilmBar

WarGames: This Won't Hurt a Bit

110 mins | Rated TBC


Hold on to your brain! This fall, FilmBar and ASU’s Lincoln Center for Applied Ethics are hacking the mind-machine interface. Admission includes a complimentary small popcorn and $1 off your first drink!

“This Won’t Hurt a Bit” examines what happens when you tinker with the mind and memory. Our scholars and experts will introduce each and discuss the ethics of technologies that modify your memory, while giving you the know-how to welcome our new robot overlords.

Once more, a wise-guy teenager tries to prove he's smarter than any adult-and nearly destroys the whole world in the process-in WarGames. Computer-game aficionado Matthew Broderick inadverently taps into a hush-hush Pentagon computer, then proceeds to inaugurate his favorite game, "Global Thermonuclear War". What we know, but Broderick doesn't, is that the Pentagon, hoping to eliminate the chancy "human element" in the event of an actual war, has given its computer total, irreversable control over the launching of nuclear weaponry. Broderick and government official Dabney Coleman race against time to reverse the computer's resolve to send bombers to Russia. WarGames scored a hit, especially with teenage filmgoers
