I was out of college and living on my own when it came out but it was still awesome for me. When I was a senior (1977) the aerospace class at my h.s. did a tour of Barksdale. They let my physics class go too. We went into their control center and, much like they did in the movie, they got us involved. I got to type in a hello message to Greenland and they typed us back a message. The guy pulled it off of the printer and gave it to me. I kept it for years.
Completely awesome.

Everyone who loves this movie and the 80s in general should read Ready Player One by Ernest Cline. You won't regret it.

It always makes me giggle when they first start playing, some random NORAD dude says " Put X in the middle square", Broderick shoots him a look and says "I know". Funny
