Summary: My motherboard WANTS YOU!!!!!!!!!!!
Comment: An angelic Virginia Madsen, a dorky Lenny von Dohlen and a fried pc formed one of the funnier and oddest of romantic threesomes. This "period piece" is full of obsolete and hilarious computer references, amazing 80's fashions and one of the more eclectic, fun soundtracks (along the line of the 'Footloose" soundtrack, if you were there, then you have heard the songs) from the era. The day that this movie comes out on DVD will be legen......wait for it.........dary!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Until that bitchin' day arrives, check out the soundtrack. My teenage daughters listen to it more than a lot of today's "hits".

Summary: This movie is available on DVD in Australia
Comment: ..but, don't waste your money. The video quality is EXTREMELY BAD and there is no information on the DVD or its packaging to tell you who released it in Australia. My old VHS tape of this movie that I copied off of cable (24 years ago) still looks better than Australia's horrid DVD.
They claim it's new (on eBay), and factory sealed. The sellers all say: "We do not sell PIRATE, BOOTLEG, ASIAN or ILLEGAL COPIES". But it's still got to be illegally made.
The cost of postage to send this back overseas is just not worth spending the time or the money even for a refund of half as much so the purchasing of this DVD from Australia is just one great big BAD experience. Has anyone else bought this crappy thing from Australia?
I threw it away. With disgust, I just broke it in half and just threw it away.

Summary: Digital love
Comment: "I wanna know what love is
I want you to show me
I wanna feel what love is
I know you can show me"
(Foreigner)
This is one of my favorite movies from the eighties, and one that I really wanted to see again, except that it's been very hard to find. I finally got a copy and watched it again recently, and surprisingly, it's still fresh and extremely watchable.
Short Attention Span Summary (SASS):
1. Boy (Lenny von Dohlen) meets computer
2. Boy meets girl (Virginia Madsen)
3. Computer meets girl
4. Girl and computer share a Minuet #4 in G
5. Quirky love triangle develops
Miles Harding (von Dohlen) buys a "state of the art" computer system to help him design a building block that will withstand earthquakes. He gets a little carried away with the new technology, connecting the computer to every electrical appliance in the house, and when he attempts a massive upload, he gets way too much information, and a lot more than he bargained for.
His new neighbor Madeline (Madsen, looking young and gorgeous) is a cellist, and in the best musical duet of all time, she shares a special moment through the heating duct.
Soon there's a little rivalry going on between man and machine, making for a most unusual and enjoyable romantic comedy for the ages. Look for ever-so-cute Maxwell Caulfield in a small part, and enjoy the soundtrack by Giorgio Moroder, Jeff Lynne, Culture Club and Philip Oakley, among others.
One small note - although most of the movie is fine for kids from 10 and up, there's one scene where the computer repeats an expletive a few times that you'll need to watch out for.
I'd like to join the universal call to release this classic on DVD for a new generation to enjoy.

Summary: Please release Electric Dreams on DVD!!!!
Comment: This is one of the greatest 80's movies ever. A fun love story with a twist. This film had some of the best music ever put on a soundtrack. It is a shame this movie hasn't been transferred to DVD yet. Get on the ball guys...put this on DVD!
