  • Crowe is rejected; Spacey’s run is accepted, with this film versus American Beauty debated.
  • Pearce’s Memento period is proposed; another view favors his post-Brutalist standing, with concern about his social-media activity.
  • Chinatown wins for LA noir; Basinger’s Nine and a Half Weeks/Batman era is favored over this film.
  • DeVito is rejected; evil Cromwell is praised, though Star Trek and Succession are other favorites.
  • St. Elmo’s Fire and The Big Lebowski are raised for toilet dunking; dangling a man out a window is also considered.
  • The Aviator’s Howard Hughes home is favored for Hancock Park movie houses.
  • Heart-shot acting is nominated, especially the cartoon-watching victim and Jack; time to death is debated without medical certainty.
