Back of “Hackers” VHS tape disses “The Net”
Joel, pupsintrouble, myself (and others) converged on the west coast tonight to watch Hackers, and nearly The Net (both from 1995, 12 years old). Now I’m starting work on a screenplay for a sequel to Hackers where the members of The Nasty Nets Hacking Club post youtubes on eachothers blogs and have in-depth conversations about YTMND. One thing I had forgotten about the movie (I saw it in the theater when I was…11) was all the zany unrealistic crap going on with everyones old school computers — ridiculous 3D graphical interfaces, etc. Also: rollerblades? (Apparently the entire movie is on YouTube here)
