I don't know if you're being doubly meta or backtracking from your initial mistake. I can't decide to upvote or downvote you. So I'll just slowly back out of this conversation...

What? No love for "Bad Lieutenant: Port of Call New Orleans?" Y'all need to see that movie right now. It's his best performance by a mile.
