Short Circuit (1986)
« on: April 28, 2012, 11:27:17 AM »
I recently got a chance to watch this old classic I had  never seen before and I really enjoyed it. It has such a great story, kind of philosophical and really funny at times. And it's great for the whole family.

There is also a sequel. I haven't seen the second one yet, but I plan to  ;D

**Humans, members of one great whole,
In creation, one essence, one great soul,
When a single member’s afflicted by pain,
Renders with pain other members to turn,
You, with no compassion for the hurt soul
Can’t claim self human in part or in whole** - Saadi Shirazi

**This wheel of the universe that disconserts us
    We imagine it as a revolving lantern
    Consider the sun its flame, the Universe the lantern
    And we are like images passing within it.**      -Omar Khayyam

I always loved that movie as a kid. I agree that it is a warmhearted family movie.  :dance:(Pretend that is a robot dancing.)

I remember I saw this movie when I was learning English. It is very funny. I love movies with moppets  or animals. It is fun sometimes (sometimes I say) to feel a kid.  ;D

This is a great film. It has that special feel to it, like "The goonies" and other films from that era.
 :)
Im always trying to chase that feeling again, but can never find it.
