Stanley & Iris (1990) is probably the closest he's come to a straight romance picture.
Blumhouse is usually very financially savvy, but you're right that buying the rights to the Exorcist franchise might prove to be an awful deal for them. Not every IP is worth the investment.
Great background on Frazier. Thanks for the knowledge.
The Founder is worth a watch. Fascinating story and great performance by Michael Keaton. He should've gotten an Oscar nomination.
Social Network is the strongest of the three for me as well.
I'd help a woman in distress. But, like I said before, you must run with a different crowd. You seem to be afraid of a lot of stuff.
She was sobbing and asking for a ride. All the men I know would have opened the door for her, driven back to the house, and then tried to work out some kind of communication. Had it been a man, I can understand being extra cautious, but most men are raised to help women, not abandon them.
No man I know would leave a distressed woman by the side of the road. But, hey, maybe you hang with a different crowd.
Good memory! Yep, same guy was in Sudden Impact. Harry threw a molotov cocktail on his windshield and he wound up driving off a pier.
I can't imagine doing that kind of work while listening to music either. Seems like it would be a real distraction. But I guess everyone approaches their work differently.
DW II has my all-time favorite Bronson line: You believe in Jesus? Well, you're gonna meet him.
I got the impression that was his first miss. Before then, he was batting 1.000.
And after a second watch, I got the feeling he almost wanted to miss.
Not every man is an alpha, but every 40+ father I've met knows basic things like directional skills. And no father I've known would leave a woman by the side of the road. They wrote an unbelievably weak character.
Something tells me he avoided the first two types of jobs (too many law enforcement eyes after the fact).
At the end, he was hesitant about confronting The Client (CEO type) but did so anyway because it had become personal.
The figure for the third type seems believable.
Bet he's got one of these bunkers on every continent. Some of these dudes really think they're smarter than Mother Nature.
Fair assessment.
It's a tired stereotype that I rarely see in reality among dedicated fathers.
I thought the same thing. Danny definitely would've checked out that house first.
Maybe they ended it that way as a set up to a potential sequel?
Contingency after contingency after contingency. No loyalty to anyone but themselves.

Getting the present-day US military to break ranks definitely stretches the imagination. But, hey, it's a movie.
The US military would annihilate any state militia.
Now, if the US military itself was to splinter, that could create serious chaos.
Any state militia would be a joke compared to the firepower of the US military.
Unless all CA gun owners formed a militia and overthrew their elected leaders there's no way the state leaders of CA would join up with TX for anything.
