I just returned from a late night screening of "Live Free or Die
Hard", which is about a sinister band of Internet terrorists trying to
take out the US National infrastructure. The hacking is as
over-the-top unrealistic as the action sequences, but Bruce Willis is
still bad-ass! Anyway, I think I saw some brief Nmap action!!! It is
more brief and subtle than in Matrix Reloaded. Nmap was on one of the
screens near the beginning of the movie, just a little before McClane
shows up Farrell's door. Can someone confirm? Even better, can
someone get a screenshot I can post to Insecure.Org? The first one to
get me good screenshots will be a hero!
I actually thought this might happen, since the studio asked me some
hacking questions long ago while they were filming. I sent them some
info about Nmap, SSH, etc, but never heard any more from them. So I
figured they dropped the idea. But I think Nmap is in there and I'm
hoping one of you can get a screenshot to confirm by sneaking a camera
into the theater or grabbing a frame from a pirate copy.
Cheers,
