[jsanders2001]

I loved that movie at the time. It’s a little dated now but it could be remade and people would probably flock to go see it again.

You are exactly right. I owned it on laserdisc. Its effects are ridiculously dated, but the story is top notch. There was some great acting and a good script. Robert Preston was awesome.

If someone was to do to this what they did to Tron it could be amazing. And I wonder what every happened to Alex and Maggie, hint, hint...

It’s a little dated

It's a piece of history ... first use of CGI rather than models for the exterior space-battle scenes. Calling it "dated" is like calling 2001 "dated". I think the effects are quite remarkable, particularly considering the state of computer technology in 1984.
