I too know of Chow Yun-fat. I'm sure he thinks Wong Kar-wai is an artist. But what does that have to do with mega budget Hollywood productions?I have done nothing but act in a courteous manner. I did not blow off just because I disagreed with James Garvin. But you jump in here swinging and resorting to name calling. The latter will kill any discussion.
By calling me a fan you couldn't be more dishonest. This is from my earlier post here:
"Myths like that are the creations of sycophant writers who want to see 'their' directors as special. The sycophant writer is easily identified. He (it's always a he) refers to 'his' director as auteur, so you know he is special."
Not that any of that should get in the way of your agenda. You are so blinded by whatever it is that makes you tick that you cannot see that we seem to agree on most things, like Clint Eastwood. He does low budget productions and never goes over budget, so he's trusted to do pretty much what he wants. His movies are basically obligatory "fillers," or break-even movies, to keep the theater owners happy. The fillers are there so the theater owners have movies to show between the blockbusters. You knew that.
