A few scenes of the film had to be re-shot because Wood died before the film was finished. It's a really good film, even if the idea that they can do a full virtual-reality experience, video, sound, touch, smell, taste and even ''sex'', over the bandwidth available ''on a telephone'' was a big stretch of the willing suspension of disbelief. |

* [[Applied Phlebotinum]]: The video "tape" used to record a full virtual reality experience, like an optical film, about four inches wide. |
