Transformers vs. Die Hard...uhhh...vs Terminator 3 vs. A bunch more cyber-terrorist movies
Both the movies have the following in common:
1) adrenaline rush
2) people who stand very close to exploding bombs and buildings and walk(even better run) shortly thereafter
3) Guns...lots of guns (Keanu Reeves style)
4) Viruses that threaten to take over the world
Ahh, John Mclane, the one guy who can fall from a truck on to a highway then fall from the highway on to a fighter jet's rear (which is probably hot enough to fry anything within a few feet of it) then fall from the jet on the the highway below and then fall down to a road below with all the above items falling on him. Within 2 minutes he gets up cocks his gun and sprints ahead to whoop some cyber baddies.
Now if you are as paranoid as me, you will concur with me how much of a threat cyber terrorism is. Think about it, if there was a virus that could shut down everything...I mean everything! All power grids go down so during the day we're frying in the heat and living in darkness in the night. We don't have gas pumps working so we can't move around anywhere. We can't save food (because the refrigerators don't work). Not to mention I can't get my daily dose of youtube!
Are all these movies pre-cursors to an attack imminent?
