With Prime Examples of Their Hackitude.
JS's link does provide ample evidence of his hackidity (if you can coin hackitude, I can coin hackidity), but it also shows that he sometimes accidentally gets it right: THE CLIENT, BATMAN FOREVER, and 8MM are not bad films. And CC need not be ashamed of MRS DOUBTFIRE and BICENTENNIAL MAN. (If he tries to direct a movie about his historical namesake, he should suffer a mysterious accident :-D).
Kudos on this entire list. Not a one choice I disagree with (though I will admit to owning and enjoying PWSA's "Event Horizon"...but I'm not proud of it).
