I mean that seriously. The guy doesn't have one talented divided cell in his shit-faced body. "Coyote Ugly" is merely the most recent example of assembly-line shit that he drops on a regular basis. In fact, that film proves that now he's running out of bullshit ideas so he just recycle all of his old fuckin' ideas over again (some of you may remember "Coyote" the first time you saw it, when it was called "Flashdance").
How can make so much bad shit and still be in business? Ofcourse the grand majority of his films are by Touchstone (read: Disney), so it's obvious what kind of fuckin' retard would hire this asshole again & again.
Now I know people are gonna rail me on this one, but I think the guy is gay. No shit. All of his films revolve around groups of young, sweaty, overly-hormonal men who seem to have the inability to think with anything other than their cocks. The women in the story have no place except as part of the males' fantasies. In fact, all of his films just seem to be one long dick joke. It reminds me of that time Quentin Tarantino gave his own personal "thesis" that "Top Gun" is about (this is a direct quote) "a man's struggle with his own homosexuality." At the time, I thought he was crazy. Not anymore.
I shudder to think of what he'll do with "Pearl Harbor". He's already admitted to the fact that it's just like "Titanic" (not one of his, but I'm making a point): a shitty "love" story set against the back-drop of an historical disaster. I really like Affleck, but having him in the film doesn't prove shit, especially after "Armageddon" (the fact that Ben could actually say THAT dialogue and not laugh out loud deserves him an Oscar).
I'm beginning to think this is why Don Simpson killed himself: he couldn't put up with this shit any longer so he decided he'd rather O.D than do another fuckin' dumb film with that Bruckheimer bitch.
