Hacking back in time in Kung Fury is easily the best, most accurate depiction of hacking in any media ever.

The NCIS two-hackers-one-keyboard video is the metric by which all other suck is measured.
"It's a Unix system. I know this." was pretty good/bad.
Doesn't that use an actual, but very uncommon 3d file explorer though?
It does.
The weirdness is that the random 13 year old apparently both:
A) Has experience on a proprietary server file explorer only that was almost exclusively in use in huge data centers at the time. And... B) decides that the slow graphics heavy option is the right choice over a simple command line, while a raptor is actively breaking into the room to eat her.
Edit: and yes, I get that we're supposed to connect that her grandfather is rich and she grew up with all the best toys. Which arguably excuses A, anyway.
I donβt think any of those really apply.
She didnβt have experience with it, but she was good with computers. When she realized what she was looking at, she made the famous exclamation. Not all that different than people posting stuff to Linux in the wild threads.
Fsn is what was up on the screen, so thatβs what she used. Probably easier than figuring out how to get to the command line on an unfamiliar system.

Oh, anything in hackers from '95
In hackers, hacking means to literally jump into a 3D world where you like battle and dodge the programs and connections between web pages which are corporeal.
Hackers!
Mess with the best, die like the rest.
Hollywood hacker bullshit. Not once have I ever come across an animated singing virus.
Ytmnd is the closest I ever got
Captain Jean-Luc Picard of the USS Enterprise
That these were a thing is⦠wild.
Edit: maybe more fitting
Are you sure you're hacking hard enough?
HACK THE WORLD!!!
Planet*
Shit, fuck me. Thanks for that correction!
That 3D space they so often recycle must have cost a bit to generate back then.

Looking at you Swordfish.
This one 
Lifting the scanner to type always gets me.
Independence Day.
The real challenge is finding a decent hacking scene.
The show "Leverage" has some great ones. Mostly showing the hacker getting pissed that everyone else doesn't understand his part of the job.
Also the hacking in the movie "Sneakers" is surprisingly accurate for a heist comedy.

There's always the classic "What people think programming is, vs how it actually is."
I mean, it kinda is, when you're not on clock (e.g. fun) and use vim/emacs on a multiplexer.
Password Swordfish.
dat bj tho
In the mystery series My Life Is Murder, Madison puts a thumb drive into someone's laptop and presto she is typing, downloads and is finished in 60 seconds. No guessing a password or searching for files. Just shoves it in and takes it out. This happens in most episodes of the current season.
They are all funny honestly
Name of your sex tape compilation
All of them
The ego shit script that accompanies this I'd vote makes this better or on par with '2 hackers 1 keyboard' 'I thought you said this'd be hard' is just cringfest.
