Well written & thoughtful, but dude, you're so young! No Poseidon Adventure with Gene Hackman emoting like a mothefucker & Carol Lynley crawling along fiery gangplanks in hot pants?

Nothing at all from Roger Corman?!?

(Attack of the Crab Monsters with the Professor's Russell Johnson in a supporting role is my guilty fave).

I admit, I haven't seen six out of ten of your picks.

But then, Limitless?

Wow! Absolutely yes. I watch it or scenes on Youtube all the time. Each time it gets sillier & makes less sense, but as I grow older & realize that I know more while remembering less, the idea of a drug that could organize the brain, make all memories immediately available & learning effortless is just fascinating. I particularly love the initial encounter with his landlady. Watch that one all the time.

I understand they made a series based on it, with Coop cameoing. No idea how it fared.
