No. Remember the law: "Commenter may not kill commenter."

As much as I like Tim Roth, how can anyone never mention Paul Giamatti first?

I'm pretty sure his intention of any pitch meeting was just to get enough money to buy coke.

It really did look and feel more like and episode of The Six Million Dollar Man or The Dukes of Hazzard than a major Hollywood studio feature film.

Big Fish was his next film, and I enjoyed it. It had the luck of having a decent script that actually benefited from Burton's cartoonish style.

Two out of three ain't bad.

Escape from the Planet of the Apes is pretty much the book with the roles reversed. The apes there are developed and have technology (it really is another planet). The human in the story learns the ape language, speaks, and becomes a celebrity. You then have the excavation scene at the end of the first movie and a

Burton is an artist and not a storyteller. If he doesn't have a good script, his movies shit the bed while having a faux-creepy visual.

The redacted parts of the letter must be about all the STD's he got from her.

It was a satire of the sitcom and not politics. They took it off the air themselves after 9/11 because they didn't feel that it was the right time to be seen as making fun of the president.

No shit. That should have been the tip off to anyone around that those guys were bad news. I'm surprised that they didn't melt before making it to the bank.

He was the sign language interpreter at the end. Didn't see it myself either. I noticed it in the credits.

That's why the joke works.

Say what you want, but at least Jackson knew that what works on the written page doesn't always work on film. And he was better at pacing.
