This reminds me of that episode of "The Simpsons" where Ned Flanders is explaining to Homer the difference between Apple juice and Apple cider. And Homer's brain says, "You can stay, but I'm leaving." Then you hear a door slam.
Sounds like every Hollywood movie with computers in it ever.
Did anyone but me get stuck watching "S1mone" on a plane?
This guy builds a super-custom computer, you can tell it's custom because it has a wide screen and an all-black keyboard, by this I mean, the keys are all-black, with no letters on em.... Then he goes to retrieve this super special hax0r code from the bottom of the ocean (don't ask) and it's stored on a .... 5-1/4" floppy disk.
Also did you know you can hack any password or encryption simply by typing REALLYREALLYFAST, it's true.
My favorite ridiculous movie computer magic is the scene in Enemy of the State where they're able to take store security cam footage of Will Smith's character and rotate a 3-D projection of him to see that he has a tape in his coat pocket on the opposite side from where the camera was.
Computers are boxes of mystery and wonder. Nobody really understands how they work.
Fram wanted to see Die Hard, but he might not after reading this strip, since all the bullshit hacker stuff in Transformers ticked him off so much.
Oh and when he asked me if I wanted to see it the conversation went a little something like this:
"Do you want to go see that new Die Hard?"
"I don't know. Ya know, I liked that one where the guy was on the toilet and there was that bomb on the toilet that was gonna blow up when he got off."
"That's...that's Lethal Weapon."
"Oh. Well I liked that Die Hard where he was all popping his shoulder back in."
"...That's Lethal Weapon too."
"Oh. Well then I'm not sure I've ever actually seen a Die Hard movie."

I like how Kevin Smith is in this movie as an uber-hacker who lives in his mom's basement. The man is cashing in all his "indie" cred for bit parts in mainstream movies. Good for him.

Does Kevin Smith even HAVE any "indie" cred left after Jersey Girl and Clerks II?

I loved Die Hard. But seriously if they were to portray hacking accurately, it would be the most boring shit ever. At any rate the dialogue referring to computers in the movie isn't really as bad as the comic makes it out to be.

Special Guest Appearance by Jerry in frame two, right?
Yeah, that's what I thought at first but the other dude didn't look like Mike, then I got the bald guy confused with the bomb technician in Die Hard 3.
