- Murray’s overall apex is rejected in favor of Ghostbusters, with Stripes also considered; an older-Murray qualification is entertained.
- Johansson’s apex is rejected: the film may be among her best, but her career power came later, with the Marriage Story and Jojo Rabbit nominations cited.
- Match Point is offered as Johansson’s strongest star performance, distinguished from best acting.
- Coppola is agreed as an apex because of the nominations and screenplay Oscar despite another personal favorite.
- Ribisi’s earlier Friends arc is raised instead of affirming this film as his apex.
- Suntory whisky is affirmed with the qualification of its exposure to American film audiences.
- Tokyo is qualified as a possible apex for an American or Western film location, while the long Japanese-film tradition prevents a universal claim.
- The Park Hyatt Tokyo is emphatically affirmed as an apex, with its appeal compared to the White Lotus hotel.
- Insomnia films receive agreement with Insomnia and Something’s Gotta Give as comparisons; jet-lag films receive a stronger number-one claim.
- Phoenix is rejected because the band’s major breakthrough album came in 2009.
