Iggy here:

Personally, I'd rather put a bullet through my brain than watch another
movie he directed.  I was able to watch "Dances With Wolves" once... it was
good... but too long for me to bother sitting through a second time.
"Waterworld," as lame as it was, had some interest the first time I saw it
but, again, was too long and also lame for me to even want to consider
watching a second time.  I watched about... ohhh... 5 minutes here and there
of "the Postman" when it came on TV.. and that lasted maybe half an hour
even flipping back and forth.

"Robin Hood - Prince of Thieves" was a decent enough movie, but I agree with
the joke in "Men in Tights" where Elwes says that "Unlike *other* Robin
Hoods, I can speak with an English accent."  (Who knew Baron Robin of Loxley
was actually from the American Midwest??)  It's the only movie of his I'll
re-watch occasionally.

Other than that, I can't really stand any of his movies.  I think he has
*way* too high an opinion of himself both as an actor and a director.  He
let the rave reviews for his work on "Dances With Wolves" go to his head...
but he wasn't smart enough to let the hideously poor reviews pull him back
down to the ground.

(I'd rather sit through an "Ally McBeal" marathon smoking pot that sit
through any of his movies other than Prince of Thieves... and I find Ally
McBeal trite and inane, and I am violently allergic to marijuana... it shuts
down my respartory system.  Imagine having a severe asthma attack from mild
second-hand exposure from concerts and such... and a potentially lethal one
if I ever tried to take a hit off a joint.  Discovering this allergy wasn't
a fun experience.)
