Neither.  Me with too much time on my hands and getting into the head of an IRAiE (IRA in Exile) elf who plays with explosives as a hobby.

i think my fave scene in swordfish is the nasty slowmo roundabout camera shot of the hostage going boom, and all the havok it wreaks.

though after one of my courses, speed is now a comedy, as are most movies about folks dealing with bombs. red wire or blue wire? umm, it's a 40pin printer cable, all lines are grey and they each go to something different.

Agreed;

Or, better yet, use wires all the same color, but with little paper tags telling you what they are that you tear off once you're done... then wrap the thing in a couple dozen strands of the same exact wire that do nothing.

Oh, yes, and have a big LED-display timer, then a small device you're molded into the interior of the charge that's another timer.

so many dirty tactics that i shall not mention, under the assumption that "they" might try it.
