  • Ford's Apex is tentatively this prestige breakthrough after earlier franchise peaks, because of the Oscar nomination and first-choice status.
  • McGillis peaks at Top Gun instead.
  • Amish film characters receive an affirmative Apex; evil Philadelphia police remains uncertain.
  • Corn silos and sponge baths receive affirmative Apex support; corn generally is less certain.
  • The upper-body-only bath and Book's toileting while injured raise practical questions.
  • Evil Glover receives affirmative Apex with Shooter an alternative; Godunov peaks at Die Hard.
  • Haas receives affirmative acting support then a joking later social-life alternative; train-station murder goes to Blow Out and Mortensen to Aragorn.
  • Weir's Apex is Dead Poets Society rather than Witness, given subsequent clout and lasting impact.
