Why are Hacking scenes in movies always so fucking cringy?

>"...if I bypass the password by overloading the mainframe I can get into the system in 3...2...Im in!"

>"Sir, we've got his IP address."
>"PING HIM!"

because 99.99% of the population arent autistic perma-virgins who care about the authenticity of hacking scenes.

boizinger!

Because authentic hacking scenes couldn't possibly be kino.

>Watching Matrix Reloaded
>Trinity uses nmap and sshnuke

Fucking kill everything

I'm curious OP, what would you like to see in the scene? 12 hours of some fat sweaty bearded guy running multiple software tools on his Linux desktop while he eats Cheetos and guzzles Rola-Cola?

This is now a technobabble-in-movies/tv-show thread

>Hacker cant crack the password
>" .. Damn! Wait a sec, whats his daughters name?"
> "Daisy"
>types in Daisy
>"I'm in."

Using the word cringe is cringy.

don't worry anons, based Michael Mann is here to save you

Noone cares except skiddies, people who really know about it don't care because it's just entertainment and they know that what they do isn't entertaining to watch and casuals don't really know any better beyond a vague understanding that what they're seeing isn't realistic.

Because real hacking is visually boring as fuck.

> "I sent him an email with a fake link, now we wait."

Truly, the work of next spielberg.

That's some of the most realistick "hacking" in media, though, especially if they're trying to access the account of some old fart who thinks the computer is the monitor.

Sneakers is probably one of the best.

What really bothers me is the depiction of hackers. Master hackers are often hot chicks or kids, I'm not saying that's impossible in real life but it's over used in media.

Then you have shit like that awful movie Nerve where the underground hackers base is just a normie party.

>real hacking looks boring
>so let's have non-sensical scenes where people slam the keyboard, some green text appears on the screen and they "bypassed the GUI mainframe"

You guys know there could be a middle ground but almost all hacking scenes in media are fucking awful and look utterly ridiculous.

>>83281494
So they are autistic perma-virgins who don't care about the authenticity of hacking scenes? Ok

Mr. Robot was decent.
