I thought the cities may be OK since you can fly there, agree with your first 2 by miles above the others, field and bomb could be ours but easily could not be imo

Trying to figure out why the movie/capital

Fan seems solid since it works for the movie and airplanes have lots of em

Casino as you mentioned, Ray is also a movie...

I’m probably not going to be convinced of Germany or Tokyo just because they can be flown to.

Airports are also called airfields, which is why I think field could be ours. The clue isn’t airport, but it’s not a 2-step connection to say that airplanes are in airfields.

It’s a well-known meme that you can’t say “bomb” in an airplane. Also, airplanes are used to bomb things.

You didn’t react to angel, but angels and airplanes both fly and one of the most famous squadrons is the Blue Angels.

I’m not sure what you mean by airplanes having lots of fans, but airplane engines have fans so I guess it could work. But I wouldn’t consider the “movie fan” connection very compelling.

That said, this clue very clearly is intended to lead us toward a movie title. Between casino and Ray, I still lean casino.

I guess plastic would be on my list somewhere too, but likely at the bottom.

I'm not super against Angel but not super loving it, it's kind of like the cities for me

Agree field could be ours as well, I just think it's weaker than bomb and probably fan(which I like for the engines as you mentioned but also the many individual fans they have in the cabin itself that people can fiddle with)

Casino i like a lot and certainly over Ray, Ray is easier missed, idk if we should discount it or not - it is a movie still so the more I'm thinking about it the more I think keep it

I'm somewhere like

Fly
Model

Casino

....

Ray
Fan
Bomb

But could move some of the last ones around if you're really feeling it

Angel is way more direct than Germany and Tokyo. Not close. I wouldn’t even put those two on my list.

I wouldn’t have Ray in my top 6, much less #4.

Fly
Model
Casino
Bomb
Field
Angel

Fan
Ray
Plastic

Is my best crack atm

It’s possible casino is neutral and Ray is ours, but that doesn’t hurt us to find out. Basically, if it’s neutral, then we know Ray is good (so we don’t need it too high on the list). This variant is full of stuff like that.

I agree if Casino is neutral Ray is more likely to be ours, i don't wanna say Ray is more likely to be ours if Casino is but I also don't want to say less likely because it's possible EB saw both movie options out there and it is a 6 clue after all, coulda just been like let's see what all sticks

I'm just so eeeh on field - like yea Airplanes can land in fields, and an Airfield is a thing but our clue isn't Air, while we know airplane fans are definitely things(and big ones at that and a bunch of small ones)

Good to start first 3, wondering if you'll be swayed on fan or Ray any

Fly
Model
Casino

I’ve never been on an airplane that had a bunch of little fans. Are you taking about the vents that people can control at their seats? Those aren’t fans, and I’ve never heard them referred to them as fans.

I also never said anywhere that I like field because “airplanes can land in fields.” Airplanes literally take off and land at places called airfields. Who cares that the clue isn’t air?

Also, we should always have a list before bolding anything.

Bold what you want if these three are good. I’m not going to be around much anymore today.
