How did I miss this thread?!? Thanks for the necro xD
Hackers
Takedown
Antitrust
Matrix Trilogy
Wargames (1 & 2)
Swordfish
Live Free or Die Hard
Spy Game
The Net (and 2.0)
Fanboys (not 'hacking' related, but as a star wars fan, a nice comedy)
Grandma's Boy (Stoner movie about video game testers)
That's technically more than 10, but I lumped some together (such as matrix, the net, and wargames) also the last 2 aren't 'hacking' but great for geeks.
TV is pretty much Mr. Robot and CSI: Cyber
I tend to hate any movie or TV show with BS CS/hacking, with very very few exceptions. It annoys me so much that unless you are doing basically EVERYTHING else amazingly i will focus to much on it and cant enjoy it. Also i should be clear here that i mean where MAJOR plot points regularly revolve around the use of computers and such if they seem to have done fuck all research wise it gets major major marks down from me.
So TV shows with hacking:
#1 Mr Robot -fucking love it.
#2 Silicon Valley - same
#3 Agents of Shield - they dont seem to understand how to turn on a computer by the dialog they use...but never the less everything else is spectacular and it gets a pass on it
.
Movies:
#1:Operation Takedown/Trackdown/(i forget the 3rd name it ALSO goes by): probably the first movie to have genuine "realistic" examples of each area of "hacking" in one film. Even if the story its based on is blown way out of proportion etc and was a shitty thing for a number of people to do, the truth is its a well made film, with actual hacking.
#2: Matrix Trilogy: I mean they have fucking nmap in it. rock on.
#3: the girl with the dragon tattoo trilogy. (ORIGINAL! though the remake is rather well done so far) Also has nmap in it, lots of real world examples of hacking, and a rather fun plot too.
#4: Sneakers: not 100% on but still a well done flick
#5: tron
#6: tron 2 --both of these may not qualify in the truest sense, but earn their place for geekdom reasons.
As for deepcopy's list of documentarys/true stories i have to agree with that list almost in its entirety except for the last 2 havent seen them(but will soon!). They are by far the best ive seen of their kind.
oh and no one has a pr0n secion?!?!
haxXXors 1&2: Because its hacker porn. thats why. I dont care how intentionally bad it is, the info is actually well put together and the "actresses" are totally clueless. it makes for a fun mix. Also their is boobs.
