What makes a movie “must watch” for “every hacker and cyberpunk”?
Two criteria come to my mind:
- The movie is likely to teach you something that will make you a better “hacker” or “cyberpunk”.
- The movie depicts what it's actually like to be a “hacker” or “cyberpunk”.
Now, which of the movies on this list are going to do either of those? Probably some of the documentaries, and probably almost none of the fictions.
- lmm 10y agoCyberpunk is a culture, a style and an attitude as much as a skillset. Fiction can convey these things, sometimes better than truth can.
