Weird Science


Seriously, I really like the made for tv movie "Pirates of Silicon Valley".

Yeah totally like a member of tal shiar.

6 episodes only lol
Matrix is primarily science fiction movie,tho unlike many other movies it showed running of real computer program,nmap.There is a story how nmap author fell off the chair in cinema when he saw how they run his program in second movie.

Wrong. He clearly understood and stated that he does not know any movies, BUT IF you like TV shows... So perfectly fine answer.

While you just answered the question of "what is a good movie" by giving the name of TV series.

Just busting balls :1orglaugh

Wargames and Sneakers are the only two I think of as halfway decent computer movies.

The Net with Sandra Bullock.

I don't know if this counts because it's not a "movie", but an anime series (Longer than movie.. does that count?)

It's Sword Art Online. It is about a computer game. In the future I think, VR is the hottest thing in gaming. A new game has just released and the hype is crazy. People get into the game and start playing around for a bit and checking stuff out, when suddenly a message from the admin comes on. The admin removes the players option to quit out of the game, meaning they are stuck in the game, until they beat it. Also though, if they die in the game, they die in real life, or if someone takes them out of the VR system in real life, they die..

Crazy awesome anime, check it out if you like anime and haven't seen it.

Watched Sneakers for the 3rd or 4th time a month ago.

Redford: "The NSA was going to hire me. But then they found out my parents were married."

(loved that line)

Swordfish is a whole new world of horrendous shit is what I am saying :2 cents:

I recently read a big article in Rolling Stone about how hackers are now being paid big money to come to work for private security firms and how the government is also trying to recruit them to work for the NSA. The problem the government is having (in addition to paying much less than the private companies) is that if you have smoked pot more than 6 times in your life they won't hire you.

Weird... did not think of it now, but THE MATRIX...

..but for some reason I don't think of this at all when I think "computer movies".

Ugh... and now I just remembered this one:

the government can shoot hellfire missiles into foreign countries from unmanned drone aircraft -- but you're a bad guy if you smoked a weed that came from the earth. It's really twisted.

When I joined the Navy, my chosen direction was going to be a nuclear submarine. I had this crazy background check and failed because they found out I had lied about doing lsd.

Yeah, great movie although apparently there weren't enough explosions or one liners in it for a lot of people.

I can't really think of a good "computer" movie that isn't obvious like the Matrix. Hackers and The Net were steaming piles of shit. I haven't seen Transcendence although it kind of looks like the Lawnmower Man, which I can't really comment on cause I haven't seen it for 20 years and is probably worse than I remember. Swordfish? I don't even remember anything that happens in that movie except tits and Travolta is in it. Forgettable. Can't remember it being more computery than any other kinda heist movie that has computers in it.. like.. say the second last Die Hard.

As a sort-of computer movie, maybe try "Pi" it opens turds like Hackers' mouths open and shits down their throats, but it's not really Hollywood so some people might not like the "artiness" of it. For a computer game doco try the "King of Kong" very worthwhile for those of us old enough to remember something of that time.

I think we can all agree Sneakers was good.

The image of her on that sun lounge with just her sun glasses and bikini on...will never forget that :)

eXistenZ

:1orglaugh

The obvious questions of course...

1. How did they arrive at some ridiculously random number like 6?

2. How do they determine you've smoked pot more than/less than 6x?

Ugh... I hated that movie.

Heard of this! Does this actually qualify as a "computer" genre? It's pretty much a more epic/fantasy style Tron isn't it?
