Holy smokes. I'll make a note about you with your film recommendations.

American History X
American Psycho
Boondock Saints
Unbreakable
Wonder Boys

ALL tester movies. People don't like Kevin Smith and I'm fine with it, but those five you listed off all are deal-breakers.

Regardless, thanks for taking the time to answer which you were talking about. SHOCKING, though.
