Hey Clyde,

Yeah, sure, I could throw rocks at Speilberg and Lucas, but they have given us some of the most memorable films in Hollywood history. In many ways they have redefined movie-making. And yes, they both ushered in the "blockbuster." But again, the material speaks for itself - at least some of the time. I never fancied Lucas a great director of screenwriter. As for Ratner, so far, so unmemorable. Rush Hour might get mentioned in the same breath as Lethal Weapon or Beverly Hills Cop one day, but my guess is that breath would come via a fart. But hey, that's just me.
