Could we be seeing more of "The Last Starfighter?"

You know, it seems to be (and maybe reading this article on Yahoo! is helping push this idea) that given how the original found it's home and it's audience on home release, that maybe this is a film that should be done for a VOD/streaming service instead of mainstream theatrical release.  Don't get me wrong, it should be the high quality that a theatrical release is, but given how the original embraced the new and cutting edge (CGI instead of models for outer space, arcade cabinets, etc), it feels sort of right that they should at least consider that direction.  I think it would also help keep it from falling into studio groupthink which dooms remakes like this.
