He's dived bombed. I agree he should stop making movies or at least bring back Mel Gibson or Bruce Willis. I actually heard the other day that he is trying to redeem himself by making a After Earth 2.

A lot of z-movie directors were drawing water from the same well in the early 1950s. <br /><br />Incidentally, that gawdawful score was composed by Hoyt Curtin, who would go on to greater things -- like writing the theme music for The Flintstones....<br /><br />Cheers,<br /><br />Steve Evans Steve Evanshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02681681758454351980noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6058069454938861843.post-75963442389296273452012-09-07T12:02:10.867-04:002012-09-07T12:02:10.867-04:00I'm crazy about Mesa of Lost Women.
