Okay let’s do this, a thread as I watch the 1996 crime caper (featuring Stephen Baldwin as a “cyberhacker”) Fled. Five minutes in and we have the assassination of a government witness with bombs hidden in Chinese food delivery, promising start.

That’s the name of the movie!

So the guy who got blown up was a witness against some dangerous mobster and now the government is having trouble making their case against the mobster.

🎶 A tale as old as time 🎵

You better believe each letter in the text that tells you where the scene takes place makes a little typewriter noise!

Stephen Baldwin and Lawrence Fishburne are now cuffed together after some disagreement.

The prison guards are engaging in some conspiratorial conversations and swapping out the clips for their guns and talking about waiting for a signal, while Fishburne and Baldwin fight.

Another prisoner manages to get a hold of a gun in the middle of all this and starts shooting guards and prisoners, absolute pandemonium.

They have officially fled everyone, I repeat, they have fled.

Dodge is Stephen Baldwin’s character name. I’ll try to remember this as I go. Hacking mentioned!

So by the prison policies Dodge should not have been out on the chain gang because of the length of his sentence, there’s some conspiracy here and that’s why he found himself in this whole mess. Is Stephen Baldwin really the lead in this movie?

While Dodge and Fishburne (I can’t remember the character name) are running in one direction the convict who actually did all the shooting is running in the other.

The people sent by the Attorney General (something to do with the mobster from the beginning of the movie) just killed the lone escapee even though he had his hands up.

Dodge and Fishburne do a lot of running and panting and slipping and thrashing about in little rivers and such forth while a helicopter buzzes about above them.

Dodge has been doing big time hacks.

Oh my god it has all been worth it for this.

This is the stuff right here.

The guy who hacked computers at the hospital he worked at so that he could use them as bots to DDoS for some skid ass Anonymous subgrouping has some big thoughts on the morals and ethics of hacktivism. Brain worms.
