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.

I was a little square as a kid.

Risky Business: outside of one specific story beat, I think this is a perfect movie. But you take the Tangerine Dream soundtrack away, and the whole vibe probably changes quite a bit.

The Departed: over the years, the Wahlberg character has gone from my least favorite to my most favorite part of this movie.
