Hackers/The Social Network/Nerve

03:34:00

It started with a message sent from one computer to another. Text turned into pictures, images moved to movies, revolving around the melody of the sound. And now we are looking for a Pokémon around the world's streets. Three different films, from three different time periods, show us the intricacies of the world of computers. From the domination of the hackers underground youth scene, through one invention which was to revolutionize the social world and entertainment, up to the dangers of the money-making machine which exposes your personal life and makes you risk your life for popularity reasons. Without the internet, it would be difficult to fall in love, to expose cheating partners, to boast about summer vacations and newborn's first steps, to communicate with the world. That's obvious. But the phenomenon itself makes all of us interested in the impact of the internet. It's a powerful tool. The question arises how powerful it really can be. We just have to wait for new revolutionary technologies and another film.

On the nature of pictures

*Every Google image belongs to someone and this someone should be noted. However, if pictures are scenes from the film they most probably belong to owners of the film/producers. I use saved screens of the Google compilation of pictures, thus the pictures of pictures, which I take, cut and edit myself (as a derivative use). They are used for reviewing purposes (fair use), not for diminishing the films' profits by stealing what rightly belongs to them. Copyright is tricky, let's get used to it.
