Bitcoin was mentioned in Horrible Bosses 2. It was in a scene where MF Jones mentions that he paid for anonymous phones with Bitcoins.

It was mentioned in an episode of The Simpons. A quick YouTube search can help you find it.

Is this the one where they find a terrorist dead and they say "Bitcoin, a digital cryptocurrency" when they extract an USB from their pocket? lol, well maybe it was better that it got cancelled because that would be even more bad propaganda for BTC. But all propaganda is good anyway so....

Not a moving but CNN's Inside Man with Morgan Spurlock is airing a special on living off of bitcoin for a week.

It airs this Thursday (2/19) at 10pm Eastern.

Check it out on tv or at CNN.com!

Officially? It's not like Bitcoin is a brand. I guess it was actually an error.

I remember a Law & Order: SVU episode where Bitcoin is mentioned. Guess what it was related to.

Good list you have made;
I didn't know bitcoin ever came in movie.
That's very good publicity.
Hope we will see it more and more. Can only be good.

I want to see a futuristic movie with a society that runs with bitcoin as the main currency.


Title: Re: Bitcoin movies?
Post by: specgamer on March 07, 2015, 11:22:10 PM
Sorry, I will keep in mind but I don't think there are movies that mentioned bitcoin. Maybe in 10 years.  ;)


Title: Re: Bitcoin movies?
Post by: BeastRunner on March 08, 2015, 12:34:38 AM
Not directly related, but indirectly. It is a metaphor for Bitcoin. What's cool is that the entire movie was based on this metaphor for Bitcoin, so it was really cool.

It was the one with J. Timberlake and A. Seyfried. It was called In Time.

Really cool and definitely worth a watch by a hardcore Bitcoiner.

I remember turning on the T.V. and an episode of Person Of Interest (maybe last year) had mentioned the silk road and bitcoin, but they didn't call it that, they just said cryptocurrency and online underground market, or something like that... I was really excited:)

Post by: Zoomer on March 08, 2015, 12:57:37 AM
Would like to see that simpsons episode where they show the banner, is it just a quick glimpse then gone as i suspect? I have yet to see bitcoin movie but seen a few documentary about silkroad etc maybe tap that in google if you cannot find any movies

There was an episode of The Simpsons where Krusty lost all his money in the "bitcoin market," if that counts.

I would recommend checking back in two years. You'll see more of it in pop culture soon enough.

It would be nice to see a list that keeps updated, I am sure in a year or two it would be one lengthy list.

I started something like that (https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Bitcoin_references_in_TV_Shows)  :)

Lets just hope we have a sequel of the Rise and Rise of bitcoin sometime soon. We definitely need something like it.

The TV show NCIS mentions Bitcoin related to busting an online drug marketplace.

Krusty must've traded some alt crap then:

Yeah sometimes they are ambiguous to not make direct advertisement of Bitcoin and illegal blackmarkets.

And in a recent episode of Supernatural too.

Interesting thread!Yes i saw it on Supernatural 10th season too!I really like to see it on tv series and movies..and i hope it will make it even more popular and famous in all Countries as mine because most here don't even know it yet..

(Hard feeling to go on custom services to receive a miner and the officers looking you as a U.F.O. when you are explaining it :o .)

Kind Regards,

Yeah, don't automatically default to CONSPIRACY! Subtitle technology just spells out the words, it's not smart enough to know that "bitcoin" is a thing...it just knows the words "bit" and "coin" and that they were said one after another.


Title: Re: Bitcoin movies?
Post by: Possum577 on March 12, 2015, 05:46:55 AM
I guess we need to add the upcoming documentary on the Silk Road to the list.

Got this link from another thread: http://bitforum.info/t/silk-road-documentary-deep-web-trailer-is-now-available/320

Note how Bitforum calls Ross "Dead Pirate Roberts" instead of "Dread..."

Non believer! LOL
Anyway, a silk road docu will be coming soon.
Not a movie either but Silk Road is a very interesting story and Bitcoin played a big part of it.
