I hope one day someone will make a movie about the warez scene. The only piece of media we have as far as I'm aware is The Scene (2004–2006) which I wholeheartedly recommend to anyone with a love for moving bytes around illegally.
- pelagicAustral 9mo agoBBS: The Documentary touches on _some_ Warez scene topics and legendary characters of the era. http://www.bbsdocumentary.com/ http://www.bbsdocumentary.com/
- djkoolaide 9mo agoHighly recommend downloading the .isos and playing them in mpv with deinterlacing. Lot of great native 60i footage in this doc.
- gxd 9mo agoNot a movie per se, but one of the protagonists in my game is a veteran from the warez scene. He mentions BlueBeep, BBSs and Demoscene in the game :) https://store.steampowered.com/app/3040110/Outsider/ https://store.steampowered.com/app/3040110/Outsider/
- dovik 9mo agoNot about warez but demoscene, the french movie "DEMO" is currently in pre-production. Demoscene from Atari ST and Amiga. https://fr.ulule.com/demo-par-alex-pilot/ https://fr.ulule.com/demo-par-alex-pilot/
- JasonADrury 9mo agoAlso not the warez scene, but the Swedish public broadcaster made a series about the pirate bay recently https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Pirate_Bay_(TV_series) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Pirate_Bay_(TV_series) It's watchable, but not great. It unfortunately doesn't cover many of the most interesting details, such as what happened with TPB after the operators were arrested.
