God help me, but I agree with all of this. I saw D&C in college, and thought it was fun but nothing more. I didn't even bother to see "Before Sunrise." "Waking Life" put him back in coolsville --- it was cool enough to form the entire basis of a Sealab episode, and that's the pinnacle.
Linklater is in pre-production for a remake of "Bad News Bears" with Billy Bob Thornton as Walter Matthau. Meanwhile John Sayles is writing "Jurassic Park IV." We are cursed to live in interesting times.
