What all movies are out there that appeal to those who are a bit techie?

We have things like Starwars and Star Trek but Im asking more about stuff like
Hackers - http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0113243/?ref_=nv_sr_1
Swordfish - http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0244244/?ref_=nv_sr_1
Citizenfour - http://www.imdb.com/title/tt4044364/?ref_=nv_sr_1
Snowden - http://www.imdb.com/title/tt3774114/?ref_=nv_sr_1
Zero Days - http://www.imdb.com/title/tt5446858/?ref_=nv_sr_1

I just saw Snowden a week or so ago, its pretty good. Even my non-techie girlfriend was intrigued and had a ton of questions after the movie.

There are some Bitcoin movies as well but I cant remember their names...

What else?

When it comes to Bitcoin, there has not been any mainstream movies to come out yet about the subject, but the two best documentaries that I have been able to find are: "The Rise and Rise of Bitcoin" and "Bitcoin: The End of Money as We Know It." These documentaries are fairly new, coming out in the last two years, and with more people interested in the subject, it will lead to more of these documentaries.

For the techie, some newer movies that I would recommend are: The Social Network, Transcendence, Iron Man, Minority Report, Her, and Inception.
If you are looking for older classics, these movies should be watched: Tron (1982), 2001: A Space Odyssey (1968), Gattaca (1997), WarGames (1983), and Total Recall (1990).

trouble is with any specialist subject, most times the Hollywood treatment of that subject always makes the real experts howl with indignation or laughter.

anyway, for hacking type stuff you've also got antitrust - http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0218817/ which is interestingly preachy about open source.

this sounds interesting too but I haven't seen it yet - http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0126765/

existenz is warped techie - http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0120907/
