True Romance and Badlands have a great little steel drum tune all throughout

Rumble In The Bronx is my favourite. Mainly because the stunts impress me the most.

Happy Gilmore and Uncut Gems are the 2 best ones imo

Better than Gladiator? Alien? Black Hawk Down? Bladerunner? Body of Lies?

This is a bold claim.

I’ve only ever seen the Theatrical Cut, but remember really hating it honestly.

You haven’t contradicted my post, but ok.

People will purchase products that are temporarily effective though. They don’t have the foresight to choose based on long term outcomes vs near term.

The scene in the basement with Ralph Fiennes… so disturbing.

This movie is Spielberg’s best.

If only I was willing to waste my time “researching” fossil fuels and the Mesozoic era to then anoint myself an expert in the field that’s do ‘doing my own research’. If only I was arrogant to think that these are such simple questions.

At what depths, and locations, are all types of fossil fuels found around the world?

What are all the locations and depths of dinosaur life that died ?

Calculate probability that, on some reasonable level, these remains formed hydrocarbon materials potentially used as fuel?

Super simple.

I think what you’ve written makes sense.

I don’t know enough about different types of fossil fuels, where they are all found, and how it relates to dead things from the Mesozoic era to contest anything you’ve claimed.

Fossil fuels still come from the remains of mostly dead plants and some animals, so I’m sure dinosaurs are involved in some fashion.

Not only that, it makes PERFECT sense through a comedic viewpoint. I’m not saying this is one of those “so bad it’s good” kind of comedies. I’m saying this was written as a comedy intentionally.

When mark whalberg grabs the wine glass, only to discover it is fake… he then plays with the glass for the rest of the scene, clearly under the realization that it is fake, but just before the scene ends, he goes in for a sniff, just to make sure. Lmao

The Happening.

I 100% believe it to be one of the most brilliant intentional comedies of all time. The twist is that this movie has hidden a deadpan comedy in plain sight, under the guise of being a thriller/horror. I’m not saying “this is so bad it’s good” either. I’m saying it is actually good and was meant to be a comedy.

I cannot recommend it though, purely because I know just how hated it is. If viewed strictly as a thriller/horror it all of a sudden becomes one of the worst train wrecks of a movie you’ll ever watch. I’ve probably seen it 20 times and laughed just as hard each and every time.

I also know that the few people I know who’ve watched it recently through the lens of a dark comedy, have agreed with me that it is actually genius comedic writing.

True Romance

Natural Born Killers

Requiem for a Dream

These aren’t perfect fits, but they’re all dark dramas that involve a woman going through what you described.

Ryan Gosling in The Notebook is to young women, what Patricia Arquette is to young men in True Romance.

Two fictional beings that the opposite sex can only dream of finding in the real world.
