Maybe I'm missing something, but why should it have been oracle SQL?

It's an Oracle-focused database blog so it was probably a reference to what his articles are usually about. (Just a guess.)

I'm happy that, finally, people are not shoving 'movie-os' in computer scenes anymore.

The first time I saw real stuff in movies was in Antitrust, then in Tron: Legacy and finally here.

For people using mysql, that kind of query really isn't such bad SQL at all.

The Social Network was good about it. Someone online actually reedited the scene where he was grabbing images from frat sites and edited in scenes from other films, like Hacker's "virtual skyscrapers", and suddenly it was like a real Hollywood film again!

Matrix 2 rather famously involved an actual ssh escalation using nmap. Takedown (aka Track Down) was another fairly accurate example of hacking (though highly inaccurate historically). One of the more famous examples of "Movie OSes", Jurassic Park (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dFUlAQZB9Ng), actually was a real unix system running FSN

Weirder still how the prompt clearly reads "mysql>" for Oracle.
