Up to date list of movies shown on Defcon Movie Night
Defcon Movie Night was started after Defcon 28 by DCsleestak. It is a weekly place, Saturdays at 8PM where people can gather, watch movies, and chat.
I wanted to keep a running list of movies shown at Defcon Movie Night. The list of movies was pulled from the Defcon Movie Night Thread on the Defcon forums, https://forum.defcon.org/node/235218. You can also check out the Movie Night text channel on the Defcon Discord server. This is where every one hangs out and chats during the movie as well as where the link is to group watch the films.
