  • This is an interesting Keanu conversation: Matrix 1 or 2 had to be his peak, though the comeback is impressive enough to suggest an Apex Comeback Mountain; another argues for Speed, since in 99 he was not at his most powerful, and he turned down Speed 2, a smart move that was a bad one for Jason Patrick (as transcribed); regardless, it is not this film and nobody's Apex Mountain.
  • The joking nominations are The Lake House for Keanu, and Hardball, for which one host made a strong case because of the death of G Baby; Diane Lane in Hardball as the hot schoolteacher attracted to a degenerate gambler is certainly not her peak, which is The Perfect Storm, quoted with 'You and me, Bobby'; her real peak will come when she appears on the podcast, which a marker from the wife may forbid.
