This movie out takes place in the present, and we learn early on that a computer named R.I.P.L.E.Y. is used to track down international terrorisms through what appears to be a harmless online game called The Dead Code. The theory goes rather preposterously, I have to say that if a player is good enough at The Dead Code, it involves wagering real money and then flying a plane through city streets, deploying biochemical poisons to kill off the citizens, then he must be a real terrorist.

Naturally, our hero Will Farmer(Matt Lanter) plays the game, wins, and R.I.P.L.E.Y. decides that Farmer is a threat. Ultimately the computer decides, on its own, to neutralize that threat by nuking the city of Philadelphia. Wonder who'll have to put a stop to it?

All the hallmarks of the original WarGames are here, but modestly updated for the '00s. Will plays World of Warcraft and gets lots done via cell phone instead of Global Thermonuclear War. But so much of The Dead Code is recycled from the original that it misses many opportunities to explore what's new in the world of computer crime and digital terrorism. Instead we get Farmer trotting around the country(and into Montreal) with a lovely and semi-clueless but earnest lass(Tina Rashe) in town. The ending, though, is what's really upsetting, offering yet another scene where Will, just like his predecessor David, is sequestered in a War Room, goading a computer into playing a game against itself so it can learn that killing people just isn't the answer.

This is the story of the growth of the personal computer industry. The movie while based on historical fact, did alter things a bit for dramatic reasons. The Movie begins with IBM in the early 1980's, the big brother in the computer world that everyone else feared. Everyone dressed alike at IBM, company songs and jingles filled the air, and men in suits were everywhere.
Steve Jobs along with his friend who he calls "Waz" delight in working with computers. They eventually form their own company, Apple Computers and begin making computers in a garage. There is just one problem, Hewlett Packard has the choice of first rights on anything that "Waz" develops. Fortunately for Apple, Hewlett Packard hated the puny Apple machines so the mechanisms of progress continued. A venture capitalist one day drops by the garage and offers $50,000 in venture capital. Apple was up and running.
Meanwhile Bill Gates was off in school doing wild things. He slept in his clothes, never could find his ties, and dreamed of computers and power. Bill Gates formed a company called Microsoft that made software such as operating systems. During one key meeting with IBM, Bill Gates sells IBM on the idea of using Microsoft's new operating system "DOS" as the operating system for all IBM machines. The only catch was that Microsoft would retain rights to the software and could sell it to other companies. IBM reasoned that hardware not software is where the money is at, so they agree. Microsoft had no operating system to sell at all though! They promptly buy one from a reclose for $50,000 and the Microsoft dynasty begins.
At the Apple camp Steve Jobs is invited to see the graphical user interface which has been developed by Xerox. Xerox had developed the mouse, and standard interface styles we all know today. But the company big whigs thought it was a silly idea and agreed to let Apple look at everything they had. Apple naturally stole everything they could.
Over at Microsoft, Bill Gates fears Apple's expansive growth, and travels to Apple headquartes to talk of an alliance. Bill weasels his way into the heart of Steve Jobs, Apples founder and has access to Apples new machines. After reverse engineering and a few modifications, Windows is born. Apple discovers this during a speech touting Apples new advertisement campaign for the Macintosh. Bill Gates yells at Steve Jobs for the first time. The great rivalry between Windows, and Mac is born.
In the movie Steve Jobs split his company, Apple into two camps. One the old Apple computer camp, and the other the new Macintosh development camp. After seeing this effect on the company, Steve Jobs is forced to leave his position at Apple. Years later the movie picks up with Steve Jobs back in command of Apple who now has partnered with Microsoft and Bill Gates This was a made for TV movie by Turner but it was an excellent movie.

In 1961, the Ark, a Cybertronian spacecraft carrying an invention capable of ending the war between the Autobots and Decepticons, crash lands on the far side of Earth's Moon. The crash is detected on Earth by NASA, and President John F. Kennedy authorizes a mission to put a man on the Moon as a cover for investigating the craft. In 1969, the crew of Apollo 11 lands on the Moon to explore the craft.
In the present, the Autobots assist the United States military in preventing conflicts around the globe. During a mission to Chernobyl to investigate suspected alien technology, Optimus Prime finds a fuel cell from the Ark, discovering it had survived its journey from Cybertron. The Autobots are attacked by Shockwave who manages to escape. After learning of the top-secret mission to the Moon, the Autobots travel there to explore the Ark. There they discover a comatose Sentinel Prime – Optimus' predecessor as leader of the Autobots – and his creation, the Pillars, a means of establishing a Space Bridge between two points to teleport matter. After returning to Earth, Optimus uses the energy of his Matrix of Leadership to revive Sentinel Prime.
Meanwhile, Sam Witwicky is frustrated that he is unable to work with the Autobots and failing to find a job. He also becomes envious of the close relationship between his new girlfriend, Carly Spencer, and her boss Dylan Gould. After finding work, Sam is provided information by his eccentric co-worker Jerry Wang about the Ark, before Jerry is assassinated by Laserbeak – a condor-like Decepticon. Sam contacts the now-independently wealthy Seymour Simmons, and together they realize that Megatron and the Decepticons are murdering people connected to the American and Russian space missions to the Ark. They locate two surviving Russian cosmonauts who reveal satellite photos of hundreds of Pillars being stockpiled on the Moon. Sam realizes that the Decepticons raided the Ark long before the Autobots mission and intentionally left Sentinel and five Pillars behind to lure the Autobots into a trap - Sentinel being the key to activating the Pillars and the Decepticons lacking the means to revive him. The Autobots rush to return Sentinel to their base for protection but Sentinel betrays them and kills Ironhide, revealing he had made a deal with Megatron to ensure the survival of the Cybertronian race.
Sentinel uses the Pillars to transport hundreds of concealed Decepticons from the Moon to Earth and Carly is captured by Gould, who is revealed to be in the service of the Decepticons. The Autobots are exiled from Earth at the demand of the Decepticons to avoid war but as their ship leaves Earth it is destroyed by Starscream, seemingly killing the Autobots. The Decepticons, led by Megatron and Sentinel, seize Chicago as their agents place Pillars around the world. Gould reveals to Carly that the Decepticons plan to transport their homeworld of Cybertron to the Milky Way, then to enslave Humanity and use the resources of the Earth to rebuild their world. Sam teams with Robert Epps to go into Chicago to save Carly, but they are nearly killed by Decepticon forces before the Autobots intervene; revealing they concealed themselves during the launch of their ship to convince the Decepticons they were destroyed.
Working together, the Autobots and Human soldiers manage to rescue Carly and destroy Soundwave, Barricade, Starscream and Shockwave, with Optimus using Shockwave's arm-cannon to blast the Control Pillar, disabling the Space Bridge. Sam confronts Gould as he reactivates the Control Pillar. After a brief fistfight, Sam knocks Gould into the Pillar, electrocuting him. Bumblebee and Ratchet arrive and destroy the Control Pillar, permanently disabling the Bridge and causing the partially transported Cybertron to implode. Optimus and Sentinel fight while Carly convinces Megatron that he will be replaced as leader of the Decepticons by Sentinel. Sentinel severs Optimus's right arm and prepares to execute him when Megatron intervenes, incapacitating Sentinel. Optimus attacks Megatron, decapitating and killing him. Sentinel pleads for his life but Optimus executes him for betraying his own principles. With the Decepticons defeated, Carly and Sam are reunited and the Autobots accept that with Cybertron gone, Earth is now their home. Transformers is very cool movie, not only about the 3d effects and actions but you also learn about robotics. On how you relate and differentiate what will happen in the future. Because after I watched this movie I am thinking if this will happen after how many years :D

David Fincher’s The Social Network is not “The Facebook Movie”.  Yes, the plot centers on the creation of the landmark social networking website, but it’s not about Facebook.  It’s about inspiration, betrayal, the weight of human relationships, the cost of success, and so much more.  It just so happens that Facebook’s creation story is a good way to explore these themes.  Screenwriter Aaron Sorkin thought to brilliantly tell that story through multiple perspectives, and Fincher’s thoughtful and restrained direction showcases some of the best narrative editing in years.  Add Sorkin’s catchy, crackling dialogue and memorable performances from a terrific cast and it doesn’t really matter that the film’s about Facebook.  What matters is that The Social Network is moviemaking at its finest.


The film kicks off with a rapid-fire, dialogue-heavy scene between Facebook creator Mark Zuckerberg (Jesse Eisenberg) and his soon-to-be-girlfriend (Rooney Mara) that only Sorkin could write.  It’s an opening scene that most films would kill to have as it lays its protagonist bare while still keeping him intriguing and hints at the motives that would drive him to create one of the most popular, influential, and lucrative inventions of all-time.  It’s been said that “This is the movie Facebook (i.e. Zuckerberg) doesn’t want you to see,” but the Zuckerberg presented in The Social Network is almost a tragic figure.  Every mean-spirited barb he throws out is something we wish we had the wit to say and yet the script and Eisenberg’s phenomenal performance makes us pity the man who feels like he has to say such hurtful things in the first place.  Where Facebook and Co. may take umbrage isn’t in Mark’s Sorkin-scripted-words, but Zuckerberg’s supposed actions.The Social Network is told through two depositions for two different lawsuits.  One lawsuit is from the Aryan poster-child twins Cameron and Tyler Winklevoss (Armie Hammer) and their partner Divya Narendra (Max Minghella) alleging that Zuckerberg stole the idea for Facebook and forestalled the creation of a rival site.  The other is from Zuckerberg’s former friend and business partner, Eduardo Saverin (Andrew Garfield).  Through this layered storytelling, the notions of heroes and villains are laid aside and we see that on the road to the creation of this monumental website, there’s enough credit/blame to go around.Wandering into these shades of gray, Fincher has created his most restrained and subtle film to date.  The Social Network could have easily fallen into a trap of over-stylized and distractingly-flashy effects, but Fincher must have realized he wasn’t making “The MySpace Movie” and instead opted for approach that’s as clean and crisp as Facebook’s layout.  Fincher finds his energy in the script, the acting, and with Kirk Baxter and Angus Wall’s superb editing.  Watching Mark drunkenly burn through code as he hacks the websites of every dorm in Harvard is as exciting as most big-budget action scenes. The Social Network is for people who like smart, entertaining, thoughtful, and emotionally-satisfying films.

The title characters in "Hackers" are such hip and brilliant young pirates that they can tamper with any computer system without breaking a sweat. What's more, they are skilled Rollerbladers loaded with eclectic fashion sense, and they can also act as crime-stopping detectives when the occasion demands. They're so clever, in fact, that some of us are thrilled to know that the actors in "Hackers" had to take a crash typing course to get through the film's keyboard scenes.

Remember when teen-agers who wanted to do something cool started rock-and-roll bands? Iain Softley does, and so he made "Backbeat," his resonant film about the Beatles' early days. But now Mr. Softley turns his attention to a different kind of counterculture, the one ruled by technology-mad nerds. They speak lovingly to their laptops. They write in the language of the person formerly known as Prince ("Leave B 4 U R expunged"). They show off posters and stickers bearing words like Hackstock. Hackstock? That must be the festival where everybody turns on their monitors and stays home.

The gadgety new world that these techno types inhabit has been attracting legitimate movie interest, even if it still hasn't proved gripping enough to sustain a whole film. So "Hackers" takes on the role of tour guide, just as "Virtuosity" plunged into virtual reality and "The Net" showed us how Sandra Bullock could use a computer to order pizza. "Hackers" not only shows off the lay of this land, but also tries some practical joking, since its young characters use their expertise to play tricks. Standing with a watch and an umbrella just as the high school's computer-run sprinkler system goes off "accidentally" that sort of thing.

Anti-Microsoft crusaders, "Antitrust".If you think Microsoft has an unfair marketplace advantage that has been shaped by anti-competitive actions, believe their operating systems and software applications are technologically-inferior, believe that CEO Bill Gates is the Devil-incarnate, or if you simply can't stand that animated paper clip that keeps popping up without warning, then you will have a ball with director Peter Howitt's ("Sliding Doors") latest effort, "Antitrust". Though it is little more than a cliché-ridden conspiracy thriller rife with gaping plot holes, the shots it takes at the software behemoth, as well as Tim Robbins' ("Mission to Mars") moustache-twirling portrayal of Bill Gates, salvage this lackluster effort from complete obscurity.Indicative as to how quickly the 'New Economy' has cooled since "Antitrust" was in production, the story has brilliant computer whizzes Milo Hoffman (Ryan Phillippe of "Cruel Intentions") and Teddy Chin (Yee Jee Tso) about to start their own software company out of a garage, backed by venture capitalists who are lining up to give them seed money. However, Milo is also being courted by the charismatic CEO of multi-billion-dollar software giant NURV (which stands for 'Never Underestimate Radical Vision'), Gary Winston (Robbins), and is offered a lucrative programming position. Apparently, Winston's 'Synapse' project, which will allow limitless transmission of voice and data anywhere in the world through a network of satellites, is behind schedule, and only Milo has the smarts to finish it on time. At the urging of his girlfriend Alice (Claire Forlani of "Mystery Men"), Milo decides to take Winston on his offer, and pretty soon, he's got his own cubicle at Microsoft, I mean, NURV.Trust me when I tell you that "Antitrust" will appeal only to two distinct groups of moviegoers: those who absolutely can't get enough of Ryan Phillippe, and those who have it in for Microsoft and Bill Gates. Only these two demographic groups will be able to stand the paint-by-numbers script and the incredible leaps of logic necessary to suspend disbelief.

The story of "A.I. Artificial Intelligence" takes place in the future, a time where global warming has melted the ice caps, raising sea levels and submerging coastal cities around the world. With millions of displaced people having moved inland, coupled with overpopulation, laws are passed requiring parents to compete for one of a few licenses that will allow them to bear a child. The head of Cybertronics, Dr. Professor Hobby William Hurt of "One True Thing" wishes to remedy this by offering childless couples a robotic boy who can truly love. Though his company is a leader in 'mecha' fabrication, particularly 'lover' models that are almost indistinguishable from human beings, creating a truly conscious artificial being that is able to feel emotion has yet to be accomplished. Twenty months later, that dream becomes a reality in the form of David Haley Joel Osment of "The Sixth Sense", a mecha boy whose advanced artificial intelligence algorithms allow him to feel happiness, fear, and love.
A.I. "Artificial Intelligence" touches on a number of issues, from the nature of existence, the responsibility mankind has to the sentient beings that it creates, and the issues that arise when man's technical reach extends beyond his moral grasp.
