Not that Kate Beckinsale isn't hot

I ran across an article on the Hollywood Stock Exchange site discussing the top 5 movies in John Cusack’s body of work. As I read it, I was filled with rage. If you don’t want to check out the article itself, here’s a summary:

1. Serendipity (2001)
2. High Fidelity (2000)
3. Gross Pointe Blank (1997)
4. Say Anything (1989)
5. The Sure Thing (1985)

Here’s what I can tell about this person just from looking at this list:

1. It is a woman. I could tell even before looking at the byline – no man worth his salt thinks Serendipity is Cusack’s peak. Most wouldn’t even think it belongs in the top 10.
2. She is (at most) 23 years old, having been too young to appreciate Cusack’s earlier work. That’s the only reason Better off Dead is not in her top 5.
3. She is brain dead (she watched Gross Pointe Blank over 50 times).

So - in light of the fact that this travesty of cinematic critisicm has been foisted upon a trusting public (no doubt the author is a daughter of someone significant at HSX and wanted to play journalist for the day). And in whereas I missed my regular post on Friday due to circumstances beyond my control, I now present the actual (corrected) top 5 movies by John Cusack:

1. High Fidelity
2. Being John Malkovich
3. Better Off Dead
4. Say Anything
5. The Journey of Natty Gann

Feel free to post your own lists if you like. I’m open-minded. Except to the journalistic hack who wrote that HSX article, someone take away her laptop.
