| Come on, its about two high schoolers who make an older woman sex toy with their computer. If I pitched that to MgM today they'd call me a pedophile who wanted to make a cheap porno film! Lets take a moment to be thankful Weird Science was Inb4 lock. | |

| Maybe. I remember in the movie you can tell Lisa was always in charge. Ya, the two teens made her but from the moment she was created they did everything she wanted.
Infact Lisa was more of a bigger sister/wingman if anything. Except for one kissing scene and seeing her naked nothing sexual happends. Lisa just does anything to get the boys to stand up for themselves and find girls their own age.
I think if it was remade today, it would be uber sexual. They wouldn't show it but they would imply that Lisa did all kinds of things to the boys. I think she would be more porn star turned sex slave instead of dreamgirl turned big sister. | |

| I think Randy is right. It would be some gross out comedy that pushed the boundaries so far that there wasn't anything left to imply.
I like Weird Science just as it is.
But I'm sure there is a remake down the pipe somewhere seeing as how John is dead now and cannot protect his work any longer. | |

| to be honest i'm SHOCKED it hasn't been remade yet. i loved the tv show when that was on. yes it was cheesy but than so was the film as well.
i think Randy is right as well. | |
