Most are forgettable but watchable. True Romance and Man on Fire are solid, though.

I have a visceral reaction to advertising and promotion. There's just something about salesmanship that grates on me on a very base level and I react very negatively towards it. I want those people to suffer and I want their enterprises to fail.

Havent seen or don't remember:

The Fan
Domino
The Taking of Pelham 123
Déjà Vu
There’s not a four-star movie in the whole bunch. Tony Scott has always been a B-movie director with a blockbuster budget and bag of tricks.
what?

The Hunger, Last Boy Scout, Top Gun and Days OF Thunder are all classics

If two movies are tied for first, the third movie would be third best, not second best.

When there is a tie, the list should go:

1. The Godfather and The Godfather Part 2
3. The Godfather 3

Therfore The Godfather 3 is the third best movie.

Sociology is too substantial for Mickey. He goes to lectures about stuff like comma usage in Paradise Lost
