I saw this sign on a building site in Gorsty Knoll (Forest of Dean). It's bizarre in so many ways, not least of all the fact that someone can have a sign made up with simple spelling mistakes. 29/05/2006

There used to be a butchers in Wokingham High Street with a huge sign in the window which read "Pleased to Meat you; Meet to please you" which made me chuckle every time I passed it.

I watched this film recently and was stunned by how ridiculous it was. The plot outline is that Harrison's family are held hostage forcing him (bank security guy) to help the bad guys aquire bank details so they can transfer monies to their account.

The best bit had to be when he wired the scanning device from a fax machine to an iPod (very up-to-date), then taped the scanner to a "server screen". He then proceeds to call up a colleage to ask them to run "the maintainance program". Account details start scrolling up his screen (very slowly). After a minute all is done and somehow he OCRs the images and "runs them through the merge program on the CD" which transfer monies, counting the amount in a spinning digit / Hollywood sort of a way. And that's it, it's as easy as that.

The whole film follows this rich vein of comedy. If it had been made as a spoof it would have been funny. I hate films like this, they're lazy and pointless. A thriller is only thrilling if it's believeable - something you would have thought HF would have figured out by now.
