I actually really, really like some Scorsese. but I really don't like much of it. And the Irishman just made me mad, mad, mad.

I have SO MANY bad ideas.... but my wife, my confidants, my limited financial resources, and my lack of fame and/or power prohibit a lot of them from coming to fruition. I guess when you're that famous/rich/powerful - no one tells you "no".

I've mentioned before that the overwhelming majority of successful people in Hollywood have rich and/or connected parents. It didn't quite sink in until I realized that my most successful friend is the son of a legit Forbes List billionaire.
