Electric Dreams Trailer

[Mariossa66]

I had just finished school when this movie came out and it made me realize how fascinating computers can be.

[anichiba]

i remember when he called him Moles instead of Miles, and when he asked him how he got in, he said he smuggled inside :DD

[persevere67]

i also fell in love with Virginia Madsen in this movie

[persevere67]

This is my favorite film of the 80's and it is impossible to find, well almost, Amazon has one copy for 112 bucks, i saw it once with my brother and never forgot it. Sony currently has the rights to it, but has buried it.

[garply101]

@persevere67 Download it like via bittorrent. Piratebay FTW...

[gimpster69]

Totally grew up with this movie! My mission is clear, must find this moobie!!!! Toodles! :D

[ostrogproductions]

This movie is so cool, I have a copy and I love it!

[Popi80s]

As seen in the 80's

[DeepEye1994]

This movie was directed by the same guy who directed the first Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles movie

[bobgrantsbus]

Reminds me of the technology I grew up with.

[jsjonshy]

This is one of my many favourite romance comedy's of the 80's. I've been looking for this movie for a long time now, it brings back good memories for me - i was 16 when it was released in Australia.

[messiah668]

Phil Oakey and Giorgio Moroder - Together In Electric Dreams

[messiah668]

I was 17 when this movie came out. I attended a Human League concert on Saturday and they sang Together In Electric Dreams. Brought back lots of good memories of a time when life was much simpler and people in general were nicer. I miss the 80s.

[gck86]

You make yourself like a lemon!

[pattyjm59]

I LOVE THIS MOVIE!!! Wish they'd re-release it on DVD!!!

[Deathspren]

@pattyjm59 I think they did, but only in PAL version which will not play on most standard USA DVD players.

[esisolina1]

:-)

[rsjrsjufo]

lol i remember this film, epic film in its day i brought the video off ebay for £10 the other day

[yudhakids]

i saw this movie when i in junior high school...i like the ending song...beautiful..finally..aft­er 10 year i can see this movie again..by download it..hahha

[og87]

HAHAH this film is the biggest load of awfulness but im rearli enjoying watching it....Its the worse idea for a film!

[ELOSHAZZY]

JEFF LYNNE'S MUSIC RULES!!!!!!!!!!

[l2freedom2011]

lol where can i download this movie i can watch it online

[l2freedom2011]

lol

[MEEHABS2125]

I have been watching the trailer for this film for over twenty years (was the trailer on my old TMNT VHS) and I've STILL not seen it. Its got a lot to live up to...well...imo :D

[leonpowalski2008]

The ending of this movie was very good...I believe the computer in the movie was reincarnated as the WWE RAW General Manager.

[cartoonist1975]

@ 8 secs that dude looks like the guy from Talking heads ..once in a lifetime was the [trk]

[alexhogan]

I adore this movie! So do my 11 and 7 year old daughters! They love all things 80's!

[pansagittarius]

omg! i remember having seen this film a lotta years ago! blurry memory but i do..

[amethystducky]

hahaha the film looks so awful. Maybe if I can watch for free

[LaPazNino]

Virginia Madsen is burning HOT! Watch out for her in the movie ''Class'' from '83 - if you've seen it you know what I'm talking about... ;-)

[galloway62042009]

Imagine the computer with the Microsoft sam voice?

[sergejg2]

They should reboot this but with Lindsay Lohan and the guy from twilight and ipads.

[MrHer012345]

Just bought it on Amazon.

[MyCatBelle1500]

This was recomended to me by Cleverbot.

[Uvi91]

I only saw the film once when I was a kid, but it was pretty funny. A film that is really unique.

[TheAlicialady]

Wish this would be on Netflix!! Love it!

[TheNidies]

worst. plot. ever.

[pegazo00]

amazon lo vende

[Fadingbeat]

@TheNidies

in that time, the 80s, it was not the worst plot. -.-

[impactro]

Alguem sabe onde tem este DVD para comprar ???

Tem histórico até no wikipedia!

[Thedailyishrant]

six people own computers that come between them and their lady, if you think about it it's more than six :/

[irenaprude2010]

That PC must have massive RAM. In the Petabytes..

[kwon923]

@irenaprude2010 Well I bet EDGAR is rather a founder of 'Grid computing' and he is just a decision maker just like Tron's evil computer did.

[ybrik222]

Jesus Christ.

[09nob]

what a class trailer it's like a music video, very abstract, if only more trailers where this engagingly vague

[mickelmoe]

Classic Cyrano de Bergerac meets Pi... about a computer. Kind of looks like Requim for a Dream in the trailer.

[AngelusDlion]

What's your preference, Wang?

that was probably one of the most untentionally funny things I've seen in a ling time.

[stegatops]

A classic tragedy...........or perhaps a contempory tragedy? Either way a movie that punches well above its weight range!

[ufosrhear21]

This movie was awesome....flat out.

I loved the part at the end when the computer talked to miles and his girlfriend over the radio after he kinda killed himself. Man, that sounds weird.

I wonder if this movie ever made it to DVD???

[TheNightBadger]

@ufosrhear21 It did in the UK.

[AxKeeper]

Damn BetaMax

[LostInMadness220]

Is this guy related to the guy from Friends?

[annddeelly]

oh ye, i remember the ending

[popmusic1967]

love this clip!!  so glad I grew up in the 1980s

[splufty]

NETFLIX FAIL

[RDJ134]

Seen this one as a 12 year old in the theater, damn i feel old(skool) now :)

[Martinofredwall100]

Worth a watch?

[1hanapaa]

@Martinofredwall100

Yes.

[simonheart007]

hmm looks good who is this guy with the strange voice best actor i ever did seee

[mythinktube]

how lame does this look now?!?!

[migueluspa]

cant find this on netflix

[kariryanisabitch]

is that the guy from friends?

[SuicideBonger]

favourite movie of all time.. still watch it at least once a week.. and i smile all the way through it.. dont make em like they used to.. and killer soudtrack!!

[aurelienmillec]

I LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOVE THAT SONG !!!

reminds me when i was young and adored that movie !!!

[AylatheRaichu]

This is probably my favourite film now. I absoloutley adore it and it makes me proud to still use old MIDI programs.

[bianconeri36]

This was was sooooo original. I love it.

[Iseeme63]

Why wont this movie come out in the US? Sheesh. Last time it had an official release was on laserdisc probably or at least 20 years ago.

[TheCreationist1]

This is one movie from the 80's I actually would like to see remade and interpreted for our contemporary times. There's so much havoc a Edgar could do now and so many apps he could play around with.

[ngjhwpc]

One of THE coolest movies ever. I've got it on VHS...somewhere!

[kanfor]

What´s that computer?

[cheesemuncher]

my dad was in this film putting away music stands haha

[KeepOnTrollin001]

I'd give it a 7/10 I guess. Btw you can go watch it @ [ MOVIES ACE . C0M ] for freee and the quality isnt bad either :D

[PeaceForever333]

this trailer makes the movie look like as if it was a horror movie

[Nueroactive]

USA in a physical war when the computers are so much more effective at destroying the people through so many applications. To design a human with a short fuse ready to go off at any moment. What country can't see the warning signs. The signs that the system that is set up over the nation is destroying it! This film and Weird Science, War Games and Hackers. Put it all together and learn about the programs and artificial intelligence applications at brain signals. Puppets everyone!

[hilarioph]

Is 2010. I wish there will be Electric Dreams 2

someday

[snooty3]

First TMNT appearance was May 1984 according to Wickipedia. My kids grew up with them in the late 80s.

[hobbyhate]

But what i don't understand is that this film came out in 1984 and the turtles came out in 1990. So why was it a trailer on the video?

[hobbyhate]

It's the only one i remember as well. Thats the reason why I looked it up on Youtube. Powerful marketing.

...i've never actually seen the film though

[odeliagardens]

the ultimate "computer run amuck" movie.

[reneefk]

I love this movie, still own it on VHS

[sirloin3000]

That's the same place i remember this trailer from, my brother was obsessed with that video and would probably watch it at least once a week for what seemed like years. There was also a trailer for the mutant turtles video game which i remember quite well.

[zetalogmultimedia]

Bellissimo questo film!!!

[2QBUFF]

LMAO .. 8 )

[spike6485]

this was the first film i ever owned.. great feel good film and fun, took a bashing from the critics but i dont care.. cuz critics are all stuck up and why has everything gotta be shakspear to them.. cant a film just be fun??

this film was awsome to me when i was a kid.. and still is to this day.. and im 28 now!! long live the 80's

[robaralis]

this is a great review

[PAGANSpictures]

can you dub it for me? i want this movie

[TheNightBadger]

@spike6485 Siskel and Ebert actually gave it a good review. I think the fact that Virgin were trying to muscle into movie territory might have caused other studios to try and block it. I've never really understood why it didn't do better.

[Aralismi]

@spike6485 sono d'accordo con te,siamo lontanissimi ma la pensiamo allo stesso modo!! :)

[FrankHoboMaster]

@spike6485 Well try to look at it from their point of view, it's a critics job to watch every movie that comes out and say what they think. When they see something they've seen a million times before, they don't like it.

[digitaltactics]

look you they get it in HD in the uk electric dreams some one need to dvr and post a nice copy to the world :)

they play it in HD thats right i said it HD on MGMHD :( sucks for us

mgmchannel.c o m /united-kingdom / schedule /?date =2011-09-27&viewm=day

[KyuuA4]

Ah - back in the day when even a nerd doesn't even know computers. XD

[stupidjunk978]

OMG so 80s

[tojmanden]

Have bought it....great...

[moosisha]

OMG! Where did you find it to buy? I've been trying to find it for years and years! The ones I've seen around look like VHS transfers, so they don't have full quality. How is yours?

[noonr001]

The main character in home alone three

[gabbalabbawoop]

whats the song used on this trailer?

the one that kicks in from 0:48 onwards

[TheNightBadger]

@gabbalabbawoop They are two tracks patched together; one is some instrumental music, and the other is 'Video' by Jeff Lynne (of E.L.O). 'Let it Run' by Jeff Lynne is what closes out the trailer.

[gabbalabbawoop]

@TheNightBadger now i've listened to both of them, and yea it is.. i honestly thought it was all one song orginally. now i know better :)

still a good film though :)

[lobsopdoy]

Damn, this is hella 80s!

[70sReigns]

yay - finally!!!!

[Thewizard22uk]

Check Amazon, It's out THIS (April 2009)

Honestly, I have it pre-ordered!

[bannedbyMusloons]

Edgar Rocked!

[ConviDuke]

I wish I could watch this movie!

The trailer is awesome!

[dvdchris]

When will you release this onto DVD, MGM???

We are waiting!

[tmlfan1977]

It's being released in the UK in April but no R1 US/Canada release.

[Gangularis]

i loved this movie!!

[sicilianotoronto]

I want the soundtrack

[tbrais]

virginia madson yummy

[semitar6]

This would make a interesting remake, esp. with todays technology advances.

[tonymontana1974]

Na what makes this film great is the fact that all the technology is really old and clunky it cracks me up how the computers are all massive with HUGE monitors.

[shooterman13]

and the fact they have so much power to take over!! search 2001 a space oddessy, colossus the forbin project and demon seed!! then  search are you afraid of the dark the tale of the virtual pets! here on youtube and then saturn 3

[fleszr]

the track is by jeff lynn called video remember this trailer from the tenage mutant ninja turtles

[Cokoholicar]

" oh I don't know anything about computers. -Nobody does" hahahahaahhahaahahahaha

[krushsister]

Hey, back then only anoraks knew about computers. Everyone else was happily plugging away on their Smith & Corona electric typewriter. I remember this year. There was no way I knew anything about computers until I was 10 and even then I was mystified about what their use was. That wasn't all that long ago.

[vmpls24]

OMG...this was the first VHS we ever owned (along with Iceman) back in the days when videos were really expensive, so that's they only two movies we owned for a whilee.

[Gradius0]

Superb post, thanks for this!

[logindeprueba]

what the song are this?

[BigBeastie]

the name of the song is "Let it run" by Giorgio Moroder. This sounds like a remix I haven't heard before though.

[endrizo]

ha a comedy film from 85 or 86 when computers and video were starting to take control ha ha wanna watch it

thank you for posting

[nepssis]

This is a gay movie.

[sshuicq]

are you gay

[BryanSladek]

He's as gay as a bird

[iamthestig1]

hes so gay he makes graham norton look straight!!!!!!!!

[prim97]

I can´t believe this movie exist!, when I was a kid I watched it once and I always thought it was really strange!!!!. 80´s movies rocks!!!!.

[pemagrey]

hey, awesome!! my fav song is 'let it run' but i can't find it anywhere - that's a cool trailer, though, i haven't seen it before!

[tngo74]

A friend of mine, Moviezzz, posted a blog entry about this film earlier this week. Apparently, it is NOT available on dvd. He isn't sure why though he speculates that MGM feels the movie is too dated or there is a problem with music clearance rights.

[docvietnam]

I was so in love with Judy when we saw this movie! What a great film!! WHERE CAN I GET THE MOVIE ON DVD,PLEASE??????????

[eljan]

u can download it at: rslinks (dot) org , but its VHS quality, i dont think its on dvd

[newdeadnation]

Thank you thank you thank you. Have wanted to see this film for over 18 years. This trailer for it was on the UK release for Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (the original one) and I've wanted to see it ever since then. You've made my day :)

[iamthestig1]

you sad basterd- why the hell do you go downloading videos of movies that no bugger has heard of- you need to get a life, and maybe get a job, and make some friends at work, and NOT be such a sad wanker!!

[19psi]

Just because you've never heard of a dentist does it mean they don't exist? This movie was popular and it's still often seen on TV...well provided you don't live in a 3rd world country.

[iamthestig1]

oh yeh. it was repeated on sci-fi tv on sky recently and i bloody missed it!!! had to be elsewhere

[downformaintenance]

You should get sky plus - then die.

[m79pacillas]

missedmoviesdotcom HINT(youtube won't let you paste websites in comment boxes

[mrStena]

i remember when this movie been on tv in 80's. unfortunely, i can't borrow it enywhere. now i find this trailer. you can communicate with your comp, and pixels are big 1 cm; some nasty 80's comp.

[bAzTNM]

Great soundtrack, and film.

[Adom]

"What's your preference, Apple, Pear, Wang?"

I love this movie.

[leokla]

how can i found a film all?

[aman1016]

The soundtrack was great! Jeff Lynne's tracks ROCKED!

[autoamerican79]

"i wanna squeeze you, lick you, pucker up, and kiss you...you make her sound like a lemon!"

[airodyssey]

I'm sure that would be censored if this was a 21st century trailer.

I've watched the movie and loved it, but I don't know why, this trailer gives me the feeling of a really bad movie with no content that struggles to sound good... but it is good!

[autoamerican79]

wow, that looks like a great 80s film!! totally retro, that's what i love!!

i'm adding this to my favorites!!

[AmAxORuLz]

YOu really can't find a movie that condensated what the 80's were... Electric dreams is quintessence 80's.
