    Hackers (1995)
    Apr 25 2024

    Why did we never get the internet depicted in mid-90s films? I wanted to fly through the landscape of cyberspace and see a digital representation of my destination, while wearing eye goggles and haptic gloves. Instead, we get to type into an address bar. That's no fun.

    The events of this movie take place less than a decade from now. We really need to step up, as a society, and get these "Franchise Wars" kicked off. Otherwise, Demolition Man will just seem silly.

    It's too bad they never made a sequel to this movie. I mean, think about it. If they RELOADED the cast, it would be REVOLUTIONSary. They should think about RESURRECTIONSing the franchise. It would be epic! Right?

Profile Image for Kevin Sparenberg

Good fun. Great commentary.

I loved this idea and the way this podcast is set up. I remember these movies and shows and can't wait to hear more.

Audio quality is good and I appreciate the perspective from a non-technical and a technical person at the same time.
