Hollywood needs more Mann.

While I agree in principle, he ended up making the Miami Vice movie instead of pursuing the Gates of Fire project.

I liked 300 as much as the next person, but it is what it is.

I generally hate "it might have been" talk, but we could have had a Michael Mann directed, Bruce Willis and George Clooney led, realistic story of what actually happened at Thermopylae, instead of the filmed, fantasy graphic novel version (or, if you prefer, "in addition to").

Of all sad words of tongue or pen...
