Yeah, but we're living in a world where he's seen as a grumpy weirdo. I think he's just being real. Aside from the whole "I'm a warlock" thing, of course.

Don't ever speak the name of *barf* Matthew Broderick...
I'm not sure things have ever been great, but it does seem to be true that the middle has dropped out of cinema. We either get juvenile huge-budget movies or tiny indie movies. I just want solid, grown up stuff that cost more than 50.000 dollars to make.
EDIT: it's all too easy to be caught up in whining about how things used to be better, but it does seem to me that all the good new movies I watch these days are obscure modest-budgeted movies.
