Hackers (1995) Animated Experience

Yeah! Hack the Planet :D

Hack the Planet!

Phenomenal work!

I never saw this movie back in the day, but now I want to.

Just listening to Halcyon & On & On is putting a lump in my chest. That era in time was just so fantastic and I don't think it's just because I was 21 and utopian.

I think I could perma stay in 1995/96, Groundhog Day style. Just relive those same "halcyon" days over and over perfecting and absorbing everything over and over.

"We have to go back!"

This absolutely made my week! (I still have the Hackers movie poster framed in my office.)

I like Wargames much more. Still, people is right that we should take the 'hacking' (cracking) scenes artistically, as a metaphor on what's happening inside the mind of a cracker.

This is good progress but the 1995 movie is still superior.

There many details in the movie, like the sound of electricity going through the circuit, the camera path is more like a spline with rotations in more axis, etc.

It does perform really good on mobile.

LOVELY :D

Now add a flashing red box with:

/root/.workspace/garbage

(was that it?) and a VJ mode that scrolls around to the beat and you have something for the next party!

You have now become The Plague.

Am I the only one who vehemently despised this movie?

wonderful

I love it. Hack the planet. Thank you so much.

"Okay, we need proof that we were here... right uh... Okay, yeah, Garbage, gimme Garbage."

My wife and I both love this movie. I thought it was cheesy and unrealistic when it dropped, but it's reflective of a mid-90s era when technology was something to be excited about and there was a lot of hype about "cyberspace" and such nonsense. That's also when I got into internetworking, Linux, and all that stuff. And electronic music. Hackers made people with my interests seem way cooler and sexier than we really were.

Ironically aestheticically wise the best hackers (as in the original sense) would just depict a half busy and utterly boring plan9/9front desktop and tons of physical (and digital books). Forget about ricing (except for constrast and readability, such as using Zukitre instead of Adwaita for GTK). Usability first.

Such a crap, corny movie. Cliché dialogues. Didn't age well, typical 90s techbabblebullshit drivel.

Strange days OTOH...
