And then this one bummed me out. I didn't know about this. But Swanson is now one of the entertainment businesses most vocal supporters of Donald Trump, waging daily campaigns on his behalf on social media. Never knew it. Getting messages of gratitude. That's why she was second to your buffer. Apex Mountain. Omar Epps. I'm going to say love and basketball. Omar Epps. The peak of his career? Peak of his career? Peak of his career. It's love and basketball. Probably love and basketball. Love and basketball. Love and basketball. Love and basketball. The wood. Rappaport. He had a good ER run. He was very good on ER. The ER thing probably mattered more to most people when you asked them what Omar Epps is for. All right. Let's go with that. Yeah. But Rappaport. Could I get it? It's this. I already know of my. What is it? See, Rass? Oh, man. It was your HBO show where he shows up and wants to give you the Tom Brady deflate gate business. Christy Swanson. This or Buffy? Buffy. Buffy the vampire slayer. Mid-90s college campus culture? Mm-hmm. It's either this or- It's pretty- I got to say, though. PCU? It's pretty accurate. Can you go 90210, California University? Maybe. It's not the peak. It's probably PCU. PCU? This is not un- This is not un- Un-Representative. Right. Busta? What about him? In the movies? Apex Mountain? No. Nah. Belly. Like, Busta's not in belly. Is he not in belly at all? Come on. Busta's not in belly. It's DMX and Nas. He's not in belly at all? Busta Rhymes? Nah. I take it back. I'm trying to think. And movie-wise, I mean- There aren't a lot of- No, it's got to be everything. It's probably this. I would say no. Nah, it's not Apex Busta. John Singleton? In the movies? No, it's just Busta Rhymes. Oh, in general. Oh, no. It's not. No, no. Not even close. I'm going to make the case for John Singleton. This? Even though Boys in the Hood is by far his best movie. Well- How could this be Apex John Singleton? So, Apex Mountain, the concept is, when you're at your apex, peak of your powers professionally and creatively. Oh, well, then you have the most juice. Yeah. And you can get the most done that you want. It can't be Boys in the Hood because it's his first movie. Yeah, because he didn't have the juice in it. Well, I think Rosewood is his Apex. Rosewood would be there, too. But I will say that this, though- This sets up Rosewood, though. But I would say that the only argument to be made about it, because Rosewood is John Singleton's second best movie to me. That's a great movie. I agree with that. But I would say that here, he was, as a director, a little hotter than Rosewood. And the only reason why I would say that is because Rosewood came out the same weekend that Booty Call came out. Yes. And I remember him- That was a huge thing. Chastising. He was very upset. I remember him chastising people for having gone to see Booty Call over Rosewood or something. I remember him making a thing about it. Yep. This wasn't a big deal in Boston. What I'm saying is, John, at his peak, just wouldn't have had to do that. Right. Because everybody was running out of the same. They would have got out of his way, also. I feel like higher learning, actually. By the way, if he'd have made Rosewood when he made higher learning, his career would have been completely different. Yep. I agree. Picking nits. We've picked a lot of nits already. But why is a six-year senior fudge rooming with freshmen? There's a lot of problems. Yeah, so there's some stuff going on. That's not happening. But also, it looked like they had private residence halls. It was like a private thing to do. Wouldn't more people have gone to jail in this movie? Honestly, there's a pretty confirmed date rape. She doesn't. Nothing happens. But she doesn't press charges right now. That's part of the thing. But doesn't Regina King step up for her, though? No. No. Regina King steps up. The black bitch. The black bitch overrides the rape. So she... Jennifer Connelly asks her, do you want to go to reporting? But at that point... They talk about the underreporting and things like that. She goes, no, it's just going to make me feel shitty. I still feel like by 95, they were more active. I'm saying that there's a way that you handle that differently. But the way this movie handles it, I kind of... I mean, I believe it. Right. I believe it. I was disappointed, though, when they got to that party to beat up the frapplers. I just don't feel like that paid off the way it probably should have, considering she had literally just been date raped an hour earlier. But another thing about that scene is she had been date raped, but by the time they get to the party, it's completely not about that. Right. Right. Yeah. That's the thing that disappointed me about that scene. Yeah, that's what I mean. That's why I'm picking this. The cops are so bad in this movie. Oh, God. They're so veered toward the white people that even in that last scene,
