"Sneakers" - 1992

"Hackers" - 1995

Sneakers had them going through the trash, setting up a mark on a fake date, and staking out a building and the security company it used with all sorts of stuff not once looking at a computer screen to "hack" three years earlier.

I like Hackers for the campy side of things, but Sneakers will still take a higher spot on my list.



"Matrix" - 1999

That ssh exploit was so cool...


Wasn’t that Matrix Reloaded?


Yes.


Hack the planet!
