: I think Rodriguez is a wonderful director most of the time, although I disliked THE FACULTY immensely, and really wasn't too fond of DESPERADO or FROM DUSK TILL DAWN although they were well directed. I did like EL MARIACHI and loved his segement of FOUR ROOMS, and his new flick SPY KIDS is supposed to be amazing.

I agree, although I think Desperado, albeit not a classic, is good popcorn entertainment. I disliked The Faculty, yet I thought it was shot very well, I think its the tired formula of the Kevin Williamson's "God, this is soooooooo ironic" scriptwriting. Scream was clever. But with the same old gimmick in nearly every screenplay he's written, Ive grown to hate Scream also.
On a completely different note, what did you think of Jim Jarmuschs Ghost Dog?
Thanks Vincent
