    two thoughts while watching HACKERS 1) this movie is such a rich text of american culture in the 1990s, it’s wonderful 2) young angelina jolie looks *exactly* like her dad at the same age

    Watching Hackers (1995) for the first time. There was a brief window in the 90s where computers were seen as basically sorcery. A noble tradition that endures in the crime procedural genre of television.

    Hack the planet!! For a 30 year old movie the themes & forms of expression in Hackers has aged very well. The technology not so much, but that's part of why it's iconic media Also if you made this film today almost every character would be trans (as are half the people who watched this growing up)

    Look, we all know that Sneakers is an objectively better film - structure, story telling, coolness factor - than Hackers. But it is also a worse film than Hackers - completely lacking in gender, queerness, genderqueerness, cyberpunk aesthetics, AND absolutely no Angelina Jolie.
