Worse 90s IT movie: Hackers v. The Net

[yllus]

Come on - Hackers gave us ZeroCool, AcidBurn, CerealKiller... classic, classic awful hacker names and lingo. It's literally a part of our culture today.

Top 10 Angelina Nude Scenes

I must admit I am surprised there are enough for a top 10. I thought she only did one or two nude scenes, and her sex appeal was based on the prospect that you'd get to see the goods. I think I even seen every movie on this list! lol I dont even remember her showing boobs in Hackers...thats how forgettable Hackers was!

 

[WhoBeDaPlaya]

I've only noticed two exceptions: Command line stuff that appears very similar to DOS or Unix (rarely used anymore), or Apple product placement. I can't remember what movie it was where, like, the entire Pentagon used nothing but Macbooks. I found that...slightly curious.

Two awesome computer things come to mind (both from The Avengers) :

1) Galaga!
2) Saitek Eclipse II keyboards on a motherf*cking flying battleship FTW!

You are right!

I meant Pushing Tin.

pretty cool movie, actually. I think it's where she met Billy Bob and they started exchanging blood.

Oh, and I was wanting to add Original Sin--it was actually the second that came to mind--but I wasn't sure if it was Catherine Zeta Jones or not...whom I don't recall ever having gone in the buff.

Ahhh, the one about the air traffic controllers. Man, I dont remember her nude in that one either. I am shocked that I cannot remember her boobs.

I watched it again the other day because of this thread.

I love a lot of the music from the movie too.

If we stretch to the 2000s, we can include Italian Job. "You'll NeVeR sHut DoWn The Real NapSteR !" Best line ever.

Not really a hacking movie, more like a "heist" movie that included some hacking bits in it. By that route we could really include hundreds of other movies... Heat has someone intercept satellite x-mits, Mission Impossible downloads files, etc.

Apparently the latest Tron showed someone using nmap to probe a network/target and this is the 1st time ever something real was shown in a big movie... I'd be surprised if Microsoft was actually against Windows being shown/used in movies, but it certainly is strange, that, to this day, fake GUIs/UIs are still being made for TV shows & films. Strange.

I was watchin a new Law & Order within the past few months and it has some horrible shit GUI on there showing some "evidence". Looked like some Unix shit from 1992. :hmm:

it's on your list!

I'm still at work so I didnt want to look at any of the clips...

Jurassic Park. The movie itself was good, but the hacking parts were terrible.

 

[Possessed Freak]

It's not about who's got the most bullets. It's about who controls the information.

In my top 10 favorite movies.
