Both computers insist that they be linked, and after taking safeguards to preserve confidential material, each side agrees to allow it. As soon as the link is established the two become a new Super computer and threaten the world with the immediate launch of nuclear weapons if they are detached. Colossus begins to give it's plans for the management of the world under it's guidance. Forbin and the other scientists(Susan Clark, Gordon Pinsent, William Schallert and Leonid Rostoff) form a technological resistance to Colossus which must operate underground.

[ColossusMov]

Ritchie Cunningham(Ron Howard) is he director for the new remake of this movie called "Colossus." Should be out by next year.. Search for more on the net...

[GoblinXXX]

Colossus is desigbed to consider any interuption og it's power of communication links as an attack. Even if it HADN'T gotten sentient, that was a recipe for disaster.

That president - what an ignorent fool.

[GypsyHSM]

@DoctorJK3 ~ LOL!! I have always thought that very thing. I've always been a total fan of this movie

[DoctorJK3]

Why is Forbin writing the President a check at 7:00?

[RideMyBMW]

They shoulda done something like aliens vs Colossus

[silvereagle2061]

They cast an actor who looks remarkably like Kennedy as the President.

This also marks one of the first known films to use real network acronyms. ABC, CBS and NBC appear prominently , if not Overtly as the cameras pan..

[FromFireIsland]

Yes...it is. Character actress Marion Ross appeared in this film as Dr. Forbin's secretary.

Is that Ritchie Cunningham's Mom watching Forbin on tv around the :40 mark?
