Sigh

The only movie I can recall him working on in the last 20 years was the Bodyguard. Which is maybe more than 20 years old. I'm sure he did other stuff, but I don't know what it was. Is there anything good?

Someday when kanye, or michael bay, releases an album or movie that is a "Return to form" after a long hiatus..... You will understand the power of the force.

So not a lot of great work since 1983, and very little at all in recent years. Might be like expecting the next Pearl Jam record to be great.

Like I said, it's only a glimmer. And I certainly have a lot more faith in him than anyone else involved.

Yeah the only thing good on that list is Silverado.

ummmmm The Big Chill is great, Ruddo. Also, I don't like Silverado at all. Also, Wyatt Earp is good. Also, I really want to see Grand Canyon and The Bodyguard.

Dude, the others you mentioned I don't mind, but Wyatt Earp is one of the biggest turds ever. Sorry.

I really liked Grand Canyon. There's some stellar dialogue in it.
