- Will Smith: no. Margot Robbie: no, her Apex is felt to be still coming, with "nothing yet".
- An aside objects that great acting now means playing real people, as with I, Tonya, the Roger Ailes film and Richard Williams, suggesting a best adapted performance Oscar; Meryl Streep as Thatcher and Saturday Live celebrity impressions are cited.
- Brad Pitt's original character in Once Upon a Time in Hollywood is more interesting; Once Upon a Time in Hollywood is floated as Robbie's Apex 'right now', immediately qualified that it doesn't feel like it has happened yet.
- New Orleans movies: no. B.D. Wong: no, despite Law & Order and And the Band Played On.
- Super Bowl movie scenes: definitely not. Gambling scenes: up there, in the conversation, alongside The Sting and Maverick.
