]]> Comment on Top 10 Geek Films by james http://www.piku.org.uk/diary/2008/09/07/top-10-geek-films#comment-5169 james Mon, 08 Sep 2008 21:05:49 +0000 http://www.piku.org.uk/diary/?p=1317#comment-5169 Yeah, that's a point. I was going for films with the "cyberpunk" theme to them. I couldn't work out a decent name for the title, a geek's favourite films would probably be "Advance Calculus" "Trigonometry for fun" and "What did you do last summer? I wired my fridge to the Internet" ;-) Now would I rate 2001 above Tron or not? Tricky... Star Wars was good, although I think it's more a scifi film than a computery film. Yeah, that’s a point.

Or perhaps hacker/cracker films? A geek does not necessarily mean technology loving. As far as the list of films go, what about some older ones like 2001: A Space Odyssey? Star Wars - A New Hope was my first intro to future/tech movies. Wouldn’t these be tech oriented films? Or perhaps hacker/cracker films? A geek does not necessarily mean technology loving.
