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.

The top two are amongst my all time favorites. Even 7th place is a good movie, that I’ve enjoyed watching several times.
