Guardians of the Galaxy
Die Hard
The Terminator

Taxi Driver is the closest to a perfect film, IMO.

Now that I look at it... I don't know why I thought Brazil. Isn't there a bit w/ stairs in there? Like in a dream or something. Not the Potemkin homage but something else.

^Good to hear. Hope you're right. There's a U.K. release, but I'd rather have a domestic one.
