Making coffee, then we start the #TrashyTuesdayMovie - Hackers
If you don't want to watch us tweet about the most 90's movie ever, I suggest you mute the #zerocool hashtag.
We choose to start this movie...now #ZeroCool
Flatmate: The first thing that dates this film - the idea that you could ban someone fro using a compter for 7 years #ZeroCool
The thing that really makes it hard to take this film seriously is naming the main character Dade #ZeroCool
Point 1 in this movie's favour: the soundtrack is still pretty awesome, even after 17 years #ZeroCool #ShitIFeelOld
The irony is that I have worked in places where this hacker fast-talk still would have worked #ZeroCool
Outer limits promo appears on screen. Flatmate: I have that. #ZeroCool
Really, that explains a lot about how #TrashyTuesdayMovie got started #ZeroCool
I still maintain this is the best robot war ever #ZeroCool
I'm pretty sure this movie was the first time I saw someone drink coke for breakfast. It started a lifetime of bad habits #ZeroCool
P.I.L. Soundtrack continues to rock. #ZeroCool
Dade, on the other hand, is bringing on some serious teen angst. #ZeroCool
Ah, Ramon, the sole exception to the statement "The fashion in this film didn't date *that* badly" #ZeroCool
It's a very young Angelina Jolie who gets to be the antagonist here #ZeroCool
hey panther-print shirt guy, i know you! #ZeroCool Oh and Angeline is a baby! also, she looks like a vulcan.
I'd forgotten the stylized use of media clips to represent internal monologue in this film. #ZeroCool
Ramon really shouldn't be mocking anyone for the way they dress. #ZeroCool.
MATTHEW LILLARD! #ZeroCool
All great artists that asphyxiated on their own vomit. You can't get this in stores, man. I love Cerial #ZeroCool
Or Cereal, even #ZeroCool
I can remember being very disappointed in nightclubs when I turned 18 after this movie cam out. #ZeroCool.
Flatmate is ranting at the Macintosh computers in this film. #ZeroCool
You have to give it to Dade, he has an impressive sense of revenge #ZeroCool
Point 2 in this movie's favour: everyone has really impressive hair #ZeroCool
How do you go from "revenge" to "Oh, did we meet someone special?" #ZeroCool
It's not often you see a character smoking 2 cigarettes in a film these days #ZeroCool
Any film where Matthew Lillard's character gets to call someone stupid is...odd. #ZeroCool
I can't take the term "Gibson's" seriously. #ZeroCool
Odd. I never realised that hacking was basically dollying a camera through New York at high speed #ZeroCool
My name...is the Plague. So he'd be the antagonist then. #ZeroCool
Flatmate continues to lose his shit at people trying to hack the planet on Mac's "It's like trying to hack with a Ouija board!" #ZeroCool
Flatmate: Maybe he thinks he's a jedi. Me: Everyone thinks he's a Jedi in this film #ZeroCool
HACK THE PLANET! #ZeroCool
Man, I miss Jolt cola #ZeroCool
Huh. Plot. This kinda defeats the purpose of watching this film #ZeroCool
The creepy thing about this film is the mother/teenager dynamic between Eugene and Lauren #ZeroCool
The fashion in this film dates well. The computer games do not #ZeroCool
The thing that no-one gets in this film? Being threatened with having no future didn't mean much in the 90s. #ZeroCool
I'd totally read "Women who love men who are emotional amoebae." #ZeroCool
It's got a 28.8 BPS modem! WE choose, at this moment, to say nothing #ZeroCool
I'd totally start a band named Leopard Boy and the Deceptacons. #ZeroCool
Why the dare means you need to camouflage your computer keyboard is beyond me #ZeroCool
Why is Plague allowed to just, like, wander around FBI HQ? #ZeroCool
Flatmate: Why do they go hang out in all these cool places to do this? Can't you just hack from your room? #ZeroCool
I expect it's because no-one has yet figured out how to make typing at a keyboard visually interesting #ZeroCool
Fischer Stevens does a remarkable job with a role that is actually quite absurd in its pomposity #ZeroCool
You know what really dates this film, more than anything else? A hacker who has porn in hardcopy #ZeroCool
Once again, Matthew Lillard is among the best things in this film #ZeroCool
Hacking Montage! #ZeroCool
I thought you was black, man. Best line in the movie #ZeroCool
Didn't Acid Burn have a boyfriend earlier in this movie? Did I miss the part where they broke up? #ZeroCool
There is no right and wrong. There's only fun, and boring. #ZeroCool
Flatmate: What's with the obsession with rollerblades in this film? #ZeroCool
You don't see enough people wearing a chandelier as a hat these days. #ZeroCool
Man, remember pagers? #ZeroCool
Man, they really used the prodigy a *lot* on this soundtrack #ZeroCool
Little known fact about hackers: they're also the absolute shiznit when it comes to graphic design #ZeroCool
Flatmate: He's not even using the keyboard! He's just stopping viruses with the power of his ego! #ZeroCool
More computers should look like big glowy pillars of light #ZeroCool
And the sad part is that these hacking scenes are genius compared to what's coming next week #ZeroCool
It amuses me that all the hackers are communicating via telephone rather than, you know, computer #ZeroCool
Flatmate: They should totally install some of those spinning public phone kiosks in Brisbane #ZeroCool
I want to know what the little thing over Dade's eye does. #ZeroCool
Wow. There was actual, like, code in there somewhere #ZeroCool
Why would you let the plane take off with a criminal onboard? Why? #ZeroCool
Awww. They're both wearing dresses #ZeroCool
And, seriously, didn't Acid Burn have a boyfriend? What's with movies just forgetting the SO these days? #ZeroCool
I mean, sure, he was a shitty boyfriend and Dade is cute and all, but break up with the dude first, okay? #ZeroCool
And that's Hackers. Terrible movie, but oddly entertaining. #ZeroCool
