My 13yo and 18yo enthralled by WarGames.

Wife likes movies. Son likes military thrillers. Daughter obsessed with 80s. Time to show them WarGames (1983).

    My kids like War Games quite a bit (and the phone coupler particularly stood out… oh, and the payphone.) Show her Sneakers too. (“My voice is my passport. Verify me.”)
