Hi,
According to me the greatest tech movie is Transformer2 because I love the special effects and technology in this movie and it is by far the best Robot movie I have seen till date.

And its incredible just how common that is!

It also never ceases to amaze me how movies and tv shows love to insert they're old fashioned beeps when scrolling and clicking links on a computer even though its running a modern operating system and EVERYONE knows the computers don't do that.


Oh and i would say Swordfish. (And not just because of the Halle Berry scene okay!)

Wargames and Sneakers top the list for me. And, although it was a TV show, I have to mention Max Headroom. They had a sort of steampunk approach to tech. But, the thing I loved the most was looking at the detail. Keep in mind this was a show from the 80s. On one episode I had taped (you remember videotape, don't you?) I paused playback to look at a computer screen. It showed a map of Russia with a city name Reagangrad. Politics and tech - who'd ever think of that?

And the email clients are so old!!! also, the government access sites; they look all modern and all but they are not, I work for the government and they don't come even close.
