In the land of Springfield, Homer Simpson opened a snowplow business named "Mr. Plow," during a heavy blizzard, later being run out of the business by Barney Grumble's slightly larger snowplow, "The Plow King." Now, cast your eyes over to Cold Pursuit where Neeson plays a snowplow driver on a violent quest for revenge. As reported by Mashable, the plots bear an uncanny resemblance. The similarity? Both Neeson and Barney are quite the trigger-happy snowplow drivers.
