My favorite hacking scene is still from Scorpions (well there are two, the one below and the one where they are hacking a jet, with a RJ45 cable, from a car while landing).

"We need to hack NORAD!"

Guy reaches for keyboard (without touching it), "Done!".

Sarcasm apart, while Mr.Robot has good tech, I got bored by the story line around episode 4 or 5. I think it was just too slow for my taste.

Edit2: Link to the double keyboard NCIS video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u8qgehH3kEQ




They should tie in a plot line about how our consumption culture has obliterated our attention spans and made us dependent on constant stimuli.


There is a fantastic short (scifi) story about consumption/attention economies taken to their logical conclusion on SomethingAwful (I think), but I can't find it right now.


I'd google it but I've already lost interest.
