Re: The Silk Road Film has been released - shows what happened on this forum 2 catch

I don't know why I sense that bitcoin will be shown as an evil in this movie! Probably yes! Probably not! I can see only one mention of Bitcoin in the trailer but I really hope it doesn't show bitcoin in negative light.

Don't get your hopes up lol.

If it shows the main character in a badlight, then surely it has to show Bitcoin in a bad light? You can't be talking about one guy and make him the sort of villain but who uses good tools;)

And yeah I know this is hollywood so don't believe 90% of what you see portrayed on the screen. It's all for drama and making money, truth is not really important;)

This is exactly what they have in full print on the screen for the opening scene:
"This was made of a true story... except for the parts we made up." Wink

So of course they added and replaced some parts of what happened to make it more appealing to the general audience which are not into crypto or technical in what was involved.

For Christ's sake, they even took out that Ross used Bitcointalk forums to get caught by the fbi agent pretending to be another forum user. Roll Eyes

They showed them using the forum of silkroad as that's what was from my previous screencap of that agent with the earpiece but they replaced the interactions he have had with the agent on this forum with just a messenger type platform instead.

Here are the screencaps of those pm's from the fbi declassified documentary they had released on this case at the beginning of the year.
