I watched it again, for the third time last night.
The accountant drove away with the dog. I missed that the other two times.

I'm going with a benevolent Beelzebub.
That's my opinion and I'm sticking to it.

Continuing the Accountant Theme...

I watched Nobody this evening.

It's about an auditor. Sort of a spoof of John Wick by the producer of John Wick. But a great romp if you're into cliches, guns, gold, implausible revenge, that sort of thing.

Maybe I missed them, but I haven't noticed my big-3 on any lists yet:

The Matrix
Die Hard
Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade


Best Bond movies (one for each real Bond -- sorry, Lazenby):

Goldfinger
The Man With The Golden Gun
License to Kill
Goldeneye
Casino Royale
Not many people would choose Golden Gun as Moore’s best. Especially with Sheriff JW Pepper in it!
