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.

What the fuck is up with the electronic book reader the brunette uses in "It Follows"?

It looks like birth control dispenser.

That is a truly random movie-related thought

I enjoyed it. Disposably entertaining.

Totally agree. I wanted to see it after the first trailer, which really didn't give much away. But after that second trailer?! Man! Yeah, I'm all in. I can't wait.

I find that I enjoy those "imposter best friend" movies for a little bit but the part where the imposter is revealed is always really hard to watch for me. Like I really just dread it throughout the entire thing. I know that's kind of the point, but they're still rough.

I liked it. I hate tom cruise but he's decent in it. And it's a great story.

Ever see those "king of the box office" type lists? - actors plus Jennifer Lawrence whose movies have grosssed the most money worldwide. I know those are meant to show who the biggest draws are, but I was wondering, have some bit players / cameo appearance people been in more successful movies than any A-lister?

I am guessing by just that standard, these are the 3 most successful actors of all time:
1) Stan Lee (cameo in every Marvel movie plus Mallrats)
2) Warwick Davis (a few Star Wars, every Harry Potter, fucking Willow...)
3) John Ratzenberger (every Pixar movie plus Empire Strikes Back)

Did I miss a bigger box office champ? Who else would be in the top ten?

Andy Serkis maybe: LOTR, Star Wars, A couple of Marvel movies, Kong, The Apes movies...

Samuel L Jackson just on sheer quantity

And Aubrey Plaza is in such a good moments these days. I love her.

Serkis is a great call. He did that first Hobbit movie as well, and with 2 more Star Wars features and at least another Marvel movie, his number will increase dramatically.

Samuel L. Jackson is another excellent guess. I know he's not much of a leading man, but he's an A-lister and household name.
