More like Superman III.
It doesn't sound like either of those movies. They just shaved off dollar amounts less than 1 cent from millions of transactions. This guy just had the machines spit out extra money when he entered his ATM card.

Wow that is really some amateurish shilling. Almost all the major banks (e.g., Chase) offer the same bill paying functionality.
Says the guy who created an account 40 days ago? I've got bank accounts a 4 other institutions: 2 credit unions (USAA and Alliant), and 2 regional banks (SunTrust and PNC). None of them offer e-bill initiated payments. I modded you down simply because I don't understand your tone.

On a related note: The Bank Of America ATMs are really, really great. Their ATMs and their online bill pay service are some great banking tech. They're the only reason I'm a BoA customer for my checking and cashflow accounts. With their BillPay service, I can have BoA download e-bills from, say, credit card companies or utilities, and pay the amount of the bill on its due date. I never have to worry about it. I can s…
Really? I can't even figure out how to tell Bank of America to auto-pay my Bank of America credit card every month.
I wonder how they'd have felt about it making phantom lines of credit instead. (Of course, with interest.) "Oh, it's Programmer D! How's it goin', D? You want $1,000? OK! And since you don't have enough money just now, I'll just jot this down for you to pay back later." And magically, when I deposit $5,000, it pays back a few hundred on my, er, his loan. :-)
Fine, more apropos- yeah, the guy was an idiot. I was going to pontificate on how one might actually pull this off, but there's always a problem: you're gonna make mistakes and eventually get caught.

I think you have my stapler.....
I mean, I love quoting tangentially-related old movies too, I think it's totally the highest form of wit, but the url for fark.com is "fark.com".

And yet they still use the Windows "ding" for everything, because of course there's no budget for sound design in an ATM project. I hear those weirdly-out-of-place Windows sounds everywhere. It grates on me the same way Comic Sans grates on those who appreciate type. Someone who does sound design could pick up this banner and impress everyone with set of free UI sounds that are classic and usable.
Oh, and a lot of them are Diebolds...

That is a line from "Hackers" one of Angelina Jolie's first movies!
why was this modded down but hansy's comment wasn't
In contrast, reflexively referencing a movie/celebrity isn't interesting.
