Stranger than Fiction was about an auditor.

Yeah, and that was kind of an only-ok fantasy-comedy sort of thing which barely made its production budget back in the US (though, if you deduct the money from the gross the theaters kept, then it was in the red.)

So, not the best comparison, perhaps.

"The Terminator" was about a waitress! And then she got attacked by a futurebot!

When you throw robots into it, ANY movie can be awesome!

This movie is likely another Terminator prequel! And the project he uncovers will be for the creation of Skynet!

IT.... MAKES.... SENSE!!!! *crazy foil hat conspiracy*

Wasn't Kirstie Alley's character in Look Who's Talking (Molly) an accountant. Also her mom (Olivia Dukakasis (sp)) and her dad in the movie were all accountants??

There is a 2001 film with the same title.

I've actually been waiting a long time for a film about an autistic person that didn't portray them as some kind of asocial robot. But yea, now that you bring it up, you don't see a lot of main characters as accountants in films.

"Charles Manson" paid for the bitches bail, apparently.

There was very little sound from the man except for a continual series of moans. - Charles Bukowski
