No one cares about him.

I presently wonder how he ever made a successful picture. The Sixth Sense was ok but doesn't age well, and every subsequent film is mediocre. He's a Hitchcock wannabe, and the size of his head makes up for his small penis. Yeah, I guess I don't like him.

He started with an average film and then proceeded to release steadily worse material every time. Why does he get s much airtime?

His movie signs was saurian. Not the aliens but the movies, the door, the knob, it wasn't like movies before. It wasn't like invasion of the body snatchers, it was suarian. The look in Mel's eyes, Roary Culkan. Anyway, he want's to make a good movie. He likes eastern things, I hope people don't take that the wrong way. His movie sounds like it is going to be good, we have to see it first.
