Just saw this one
Two people one keyboard also comes to mind
Hacking back in time in Kung Fury is easily the best, most accurate depiction of hacking in any media ever.
What's the worst hacking scene from any movie or show?

That's clearly parodying it though.

You’ve obviously never hacked while wearing a powerglove

How have I not seen this movie? That looks amazing

For anyone wanting the opposite, Mr. Robot had great hacking scenes

Haven't seen that one, but the one I remember was from Matrix Reloaded.
Trinity used Nmap to scan for vulnerabilities and then used a SSH1 CRC32 attack, which was a real world loophole in computers back then.Anticorp@lemmy.world 5 months ago
And the tech world definitely noticed. There were a lot of discussions about how cool that was on blogs and forums back then. I think even Wired Magazine wrote about it.
johannesvanderwhales@lemmy.world 5 months ago
It also showed that realistic hacking could make for interesting screen drama. Hacking a offside backup company by coming in for an interview and installing a trojaned wifi router.
Anticorp@lemmy.world 5 months ago
How do you install a router when you’re just there for an interview?

In more than one meaning of the word “hack”; the axe scene was horrifying and so well done

The NCIS two-hackers-one-keyboard video is the metric by which all other suck is measured.

“It’s a Unix system. I know this.” was pretty good/bad.

Doesn’t that use an actual, but very uncommon 3d file explorer though?
MajorHavoc@programming.dev 5 months ago
It does.
The weirdness is that the random 13 year old apparently both:
A) Has experience on a proprietary server file explorer only that was almost exclusively in use in huge data centers at the time. And… B) decides that the slow graphics heavy option is the right choice over a simple command line, while a raptor is actively breaking into the room to eat her.

On opening night at the theater, my friend shouted, “Shut up! No you don’t!” When this line was uttered. Made the scene much more memorable for me.

Oh, anything in hackers from '95
In hackers, hacking means to literally jump into a 3D world where you like battle and dodge the programs and connections between web pages which are corporeal.
Hackers!

Hollywood hacker bullshit. Not once have I ever come across an animated singing virus.

Are you sure you’re hacking hard enough?

Billy hacks the gibson using some kind of intense graphical interface on Mac OS (7 maybe?) on his Apple IIGS.
Huh?!
Nomad@infosec.pub 5 months ago
It was supposed to represent cyberspace like in the Gibson books. It’s a thing is the times back then.
MonkderDritte@feddit.de 5 months ago
That 3D space they so often recycle must have cost a bit to generate back then.

I feel like they didn’t hack so much as insert a virus through an already connected piece of hardware.

With a compatible floppy disk too if I recall.

The real challenge is finding a decent hacking scene.

The show “Leverage” has some great ones. Mostly showing the hacker getting pissed that everyone else doesn’t understand his part of the job.
EmoDuck@sh.itjust.works 5 months ago
The movie Who Am I has some great hacking scenes since most of them are like 20% actual hacking and 80% social engineering and getting physical access to places/servers.
It’s made by the same people who made Dark so if you liked that show and are willing to read subtitles

Has somebody just watched Linus Tech Tips 😁? They’ve recently done two videos where they pull apart scenes likes this.

Has anyone watched Hackers? 😆

Hackers is a timeless classic that got hacking 100% correct.
Rolando@lemmy.world 5 months ago
There’s always the classic “What people think programming is, vs how it actually is.”
MonkderDritte@feddit.de 5 months ago
I mea, it kinda is, when you’re not on clock (e.g. fun) and use vim/emacs on a multiplexer.

In the mystery series My Life Is Murder, Madison puts a thumb drive into someone's laptop and presto she is typing, downloads and is finished in 60 seconds. No guessing a password or searching for files. Just shoves it in and takes it out. This happens in most episodes of the current season.

The ego shit script that accompanies this I’d vote makes this better or on par with ‘2 hackers 1 keyboard’ ‘I thought you said this’d be hard’ is just cringfest.

I cant find the clip online, but i seem to remember a scene in ‘Lucy’ where she, while on an airplane, pulls out two laptops and uses them both, one with each hand, to do some tech magic.
