** With references to the mid-2000s indie scene, Website/MySpace, and early 2000s movies, this movie might result as a rather interesting time capsule.
** Part of the plot involves Carl being commended and given a promotion for earning huge profits for his bank, a storyline that you'd now be ''very'' unlikely to see after the financial crash that occurred around the time the movie was released. Mitigated a little in that the bank's directors, while not out-and-out {{Corrupt Corporate Executive}}s, are depicted as cold-hearted individuals who are quite happy to shut down branches that aren't sufficiently profitable, without any regard for their employees.
