Well, the problem maybe he's not trying to be a good storyteller. He tends to profit off ambiguity too much sometimes. In a sense, it's what killed Mulholland Drive... It's like... The first half hour establishes 18 side stories that magically disappear...

Then again, I think that's why Twin Peaks worked, he was allowed time to tell a story, and Twin Peaks is quite well put together considering how many substories go on at once in it.

Terence Hill, as recently confirmed during an interview to an Italian TV talk-show, was offered the role but rejected it because he considered it "too violent". Dustin Hoffman and John Travolta declined the role for the same reason. When Al Pacino was considered for the role of John Rambo, he turned it down when his request that Rambo be more of a madman was rejected.
Al Pacino = God
