Lines: 13 From: wesm@Mitre-Bedford I feel that one of the better SF movies, surprisingly not mentioned as yet, is "Collosus, The Forbin Project". For those who haven't seen it, it was about the building of a computer that would total automate this countries missle defense system so that we would no longer have to worry about that aspect of our lives, the computer was designed totally as a defensive tool (plot sound familiar). Eric Bradden played Dr. Forbin I believe. This flick was done in a totally believable manner, not much in special effects, but with the script done as well as this they aren't needed. The story really gets interesting when our computer finds out about its Russian counterpart and decides to strike up a conversation. Good Stuff!
