    Sneakers

    A ‘hacking’ movie that holds up brilliantly despite outdated technology. Excellent cast, characters, story, and pacing IMO.

      Oh wow … yes! Great pick. It is remarkable how well this holds up! Intentionally or not, it stuck to things that either still work today or would still be huge breakthroughs today.

    Blade (1998)

    Various things have reminded me of this … it came up in a community episode, the MCU version in development hell etc … thought it might be interesting to revisit as a flavour that the MCU has definitely not explored
