What would your reaction be if....
you found out that a character in a story, whether in a book or movie medium, is similar to your personality, life, or lifestyle? |

I'm 100% positive that the character of Cereal Killer from the movie Hackers was based on me. Cereal Killer was a name I used on a hacking BBS in the early 90s before the movie came out, and my signature on that board was "The Fr00t-l00p MaNiAc!". I once did a rant in a message saying that you can sit at home all day doing nothing and your name is going through a bunch of government computers, and I also used the line 1984 is a type-o.
Cut to the movie: Cereal Killer is introduced: CEREAL FYI, alright man, you can sit at home, and do like absolutely nothing and... Cereal pauses, notices Dade, whom he has never met formally but seen around, and then continues. CEREAL ...and your name goes through like seventeen computers a day. 1984, yeah right man, that's a typo. Orwell's here and now, he's living large. We have no names, man, no names. We are nameless. Can I score a fry? Thanks. PHREAK Meet Cereal Killer. As in Froot Loops? But he does know things. |

No, that was written by The Mentor, AKA Lloyd Blankenship. He's the reason the Secret Service was after Steve Jackson Games, he was an employee there in the midst of Operation Sundevil. |

But thats so easy. Like you could relate to a whole slew of characters/situations. Thats why reading rules, open to interpretation. |

I'd have to say, I did feel connected to Astrid in White Oleander. Never been so into a book before. Actually cried. |
