Or better yet, how about Hackers 2.......just kidding, if you havent seen this movie then dont waste your time watching it

Jerry

How about a doulbe feature:

Hackers & Hackers II

Though I would be interested in viewing the director's cut of TXH 1138

"Make a Little Bird House in Your Soul" - TMBG...

Hackers is one of the best computer movies I have ever seen. I was lucky and got it for 10 bucks at Wally World one night. I have enjoyed it in my movie collection ever since. My favorite scene is when they all get excited about her laptop have a 28.8 kps modem. Makes me laugh because of the speed we have today

Double feature sounds good to me.  However, I've never seen THX 1138, and if I'm remembering correctly, it looks/sounds interesting.

Another good movie to watch for movie night involving computers and technology is Antitrust.  I think its a great movie... heres the review and trailer.

Antitrust

I would put a vote for Hackers if we had a poll.

Ross Mead

Anyone seen the movie 'Pi'?  It's a very artsy movie (it's in black and white), but I think most in CAOS would find it interesting...

Tyler

I also would vote for Antitrust.  It's a sweet movie.

yeah, pi is interesting, but hackers is fun!

i have never seen hackers 2, i didn't even know there was one.  the first, however, is cheesy, goofy, and fun.  even a bit nostalgic.  got my vote.

i like how the bad guy insists on being referred to as "the plague", and he rides a big ol' skateboard.  too bad it didn't have any rad skating in it...  the skitching for the floppy disk was just silly.
