      Harry Houdini . Misdirection...

    In the film, a hacker was captured before Stanley. What was his name?'Swordfish' Rocks!

      Axl. He was shot by Vinnie Jones in the interview room.

    How much money was Gabriel after?'Swordfish' Rocks!

      9.5 billion. 'Have you any idea how much money that is?'

      DEA. 'I'm DEA Stanley.'

    Which airport was the bus on route to?'Swordfish' Rocks!

      LAX. 'Where is it?' 'Airborne.'

      Yellow. And then he took the flying bus...

    What was the name of Stanley's daughter?'Swordfish' Rocks!

      Holly.

      TVR Tuscan. Did you notice the car had English plates?

      John Travolta . Wasn't that 'beard' something else?

    What is the name of Hugh Jackman's character?'Swordfish' Rocks!

      Stanley.

    What was Gabriel's account number in the bank in Monte Carlo at the end of the movie?"Swordfish" #1

      356127G. Just to see if anyone was paying attention at the end.

    What was the name of the financial institution across the street from the coffee shop?"Swordfish" #1

      WorldBanc. Has anyone ever heard of WorldBanc? I didn't think so.

    Where was Senator James Reisman killed by Gabriel?"Swordfish" #1

      Bend, Oregon. The Senator was shot while fishing in a catch-and-release stream. How ironic.

    What is the model of computer on which Stanley stores his worm's base code?"Swordfish" #1

      PDP-11. DEC (Digital Equipment Corporation) used to make great computer hardware (in my humble opinion); sadly, much of it is now relegated to museum-type spaces.

    What drink do both Stanley and Gabriel order at this coffee shop?"Swordfish" #1

      Triple Espresso. A highly caffeinated drink, no longer just for breakfast anymore.

    What is the name of the coffee shop that Gabriel and Stanley go to?"Swordfish" #1

      Travelers Coffee Company. Does this shop really exist somewhere?

    How many monitors does the computer in Gabriel's rented home have?"Swordfish" #1

      7. I find it curious that seven is also the number of heads of the mythical beast, the Hydra.

    What is the name of Stanley Jobson's daughter?"Swordfish" #1

      Holly. The sunglasses she is wearing when we first meet her, make her look much older than she actually is.

    "You can take the girl out of the trailer park, but you can't take the trailer park out of the girl." This line was said by Stanley to whom?"Swordfish" #1

      Melissa. Drea de Matteo, who played Melissa, was also highly featured in HBO's original series, "The Sopranos".

    From what country does the hacker Axel Torvalds have a valid passport?"Swordfish" #1

      Finland. IKEA is furniture made in Sweden. Hamlet is from Denmark. Russia now boasts a great number of computer hackers. But the best ones seem to come from Finland, or the United States of America.

    According to Gabriel, how much do nuclear warheads go for, each, in Minsk?"Swordfish" #2

      $40 million. "Hell, I can buy half a dozen and get a discount." - Gabriel Shear

    Why does Gabriel need the $9.5 billion?"Swordfish" #2

      "Because Wars Cost Money".

    According to Gabriel, which United States of America president once shot a man on the lawn of the White House?"Swordfish" #2

      Thomas Jefferson. Aaron Burr was never president of the United States of America.

    How much C-4 explosive (along with 15 lbs. of stainless steel ball bearings) were strapped to each hostage?"Swordfish" #2

      20 lbs. Were you paying attention? Truly a walking "Claymore mine".

    How many hostages were alive at the end of the ordeal at the bank and in the flying bus?"Swordfish" #2

      20. 22 original hostages - 1 blown up at the bank - 1 blown up mid-air with a nasty guy = 20.

    What does Stanley call his dog after Ginger "corrupts" him at Stanley's trailer?"Swordfish" #2

      Judas. The dog did not seem to care about Stanley's opinion of him; he (the dog) was getting attention from the very beautiful Halle Berry.

    Of which college/university is Stanley Jobson an alumnus?"Swordfish" #2

      Cal Tech. Seen on the computer monitor when Stanley logs in to retrieve his base code for his worms.

    Which movie was the subject of Gabriel's discussion at the beginning of this movie?"Swordfish" #2

      Dog Day Afternoon. A great movie starring Al Pacino.

    Which brand of laptop computer does Gabriel "force" Stanley to touch in the nightclub while having a gun at his head and a girl paying him a lot of attention?"Swordfish" #2

      Dell. Did you notice the 802.11b Wi-Fi card in the laptop? I did. But then, I'm a computer geek.

    Which school does Stanley's daughter attend?"Swordfish" #2

      Briarlynn Preparatory Academy. The school name is seen very briefly in the scene where we first see Stanley's daughter, Holly.

    What company is the employer of Stanley Jobson at the beginning of the movie?"Swordfish" #2

      DeHavilind Oil Co.. The company name is seen on a sign when Ginger Knowles first appears in her hot red rental car.
