crappy movies you liked
fallacy:
You guys remember 1995 Hackers, first movie with Angelina Jolie.
That movie had it all. Hacking that looked like playing a video game, virtual cyberspace, image displaying on their face.
I think after seeing that I pretty much hated all movies that had computers in them.

I'd like to file "Harry and the Hendersons" under crappy 80's movies that I enjoy way too much.

Yea, Hackers was the worst culprit. I also found it funny that it was obviously supposed to be based in somewhat of the future (or at least I always thought), yet a lot of the "hacker" things they were doing were outdated. Also the hardware they were using and going crazy over was on the verge of being outdated when the movie was released. I still remember this scene...when they were at a party checking out a computer in one of the rooms and one of them says something like "Whoa this thing is blazing fast...it has a 56k modem"....I fell on the floor laughing at that. 56k modems were already old news by at least 4 years by then.
Bootay:
So I did a little bit of research and found that they actually say 28.8k not 56k. And that 56k came out around 97-98. Hackers came out in 95. But my point is still valid since 28.8k modems were pretty much old news by 95.

I still love that movie... as crappy as it was.
I pull it out and watch it every now and then.
