Space is big. You just won't believe how vastly, hugely, mind- bogglingly big it is. I mean, you may think it's a long way down the road to the chemist's, but that's just peanuts to space.

That has to go up against everything else in the movies.Originally posted by Ari Rahikkala
You're closer than you think. See http://www.securityfocus.com/news/4831 - they actually use a real network scanner tool in The Matrix Reloaded, and exploit a vulnerability that actually existed. The details are embellished a bit, but it *is* as about as accurate as it gets in any film that I've seen with hacking in it.Comment

Pretty good stuff. So they prepared a LAN PC with a SSH server so that Nmap could be run against it finding the SSH port. But it's hard to make up for the fact that Matrix is such poor sci-fi

It's almost as if all his overconfident, absolutist assertions were spoonfed to him by a trusted website or subreddit. Sheeple

Only good thing about Swordfish is you got to see Halle Berry's tits. The rest of that movie was unmemorable for the most part.Comment

Re: Does any movie depict hacking accurately?
noChristianity: The belief that a cosmic Jewish Zombie who was his own father can make you live forever if you symbolically eat his flesh and telepathically tell him you accept him as your master, so he can remove an evil force from your soul that is present in humanity because a rib-woman was convinced by a talking snake to eat from a magical tree...Comment

Does using a prefix code to take control of another ship's systems count as hacking? (Wrath of Khan, Enterprise lowers Reliant's shields.)Those who would give up Essential Liberty to purchase a little Temporary Safety, deserve neither Liberty nor Safety. - Ben Franklin

Sadly Hacking dose not involve involuntary blow jobs (SwordFish)Companions the creator seeks, not corpses, not herds and believers. Fellow creators, the creator seeks - those who write new values on new tablets. Companions the creator seeks, and fellow harvesters; for everything about him is ripe for the harvest. - Thus spoke Zarathustra, Fredrick NietzscheComment

You like involuntary? Are you a masochist or what?
