I get the feeling that a few of the examples are similar, & that it's unfair to say that "Everyone" hates working with them. Specifically, that Bruce Willis example is of one film with one director, who has spoken publicly about how during that film, Willis did not quite realize how amateurish of a filmmaker Kevin Smith is

I saw Smith speak about the film & how at one point he was discussing a close up shot & he gestured with his hands what size it was to be, & it was then that Willis realized that Smith didn't know his lens sizes, like every professional motion picture director should know, & Smith said "I thought you knew. I'm not like a real director. I'm like the clown prince of directors" To which Willis replied "Yeah, I'm starting to notice that"

So imagine that. You're a couple decades into a high profile motion picture career, & now you're stuck on a set with some guy pretending to be a "Hollywood" director & Tracy Morgan as your costar, who is fairly well insane on a regular basis to boot. You could get to feeling like you made a huge mistake & this is all a waste of your time pretty quickly, & that might sour your attitude to people around you. Let's face it. Cop Out is a terrible movie & it was probably evident to people involved all along

At one point Smith asked Willis to give him a take that he explained was like "That moment in Moonlighting" Where apparently David Addison had reacted a certain way. Lots of actors get insulted if someone's asking them to just mimic a performance from some other project

Smith has always been out of his depth as a major motion picture director. He knew it, & everyone else did too. It's why he only made 6 films since 2000, two of which were rehashes of his youth movies (Though I do enjoy them) & the rest were, Jersey Girl, Cop Out, & Zack & Miri Make a Porno, which all bombed

The last film he made was maybe the best & most serious film he's ever made, called "Red State". It is an uncharacteristically good film from him, but was done on an independent budget.

Point being, I like Kevin Smith, but maybe that experience wasn't all a reflection on Bruce Willis, to be fair

I 'will' remember.

Cool list.

I found this video with Michael Caine & Craig Ferguson talking about that recording of Christian Bale on the set of Terminator Salvation. Gives a bit of perspective I guess.



Mandy Patinkin was a surprise to me. I like the way he talked about it too.
I will remember.

Steven Seagal bullied everyone everywhere. He's a pompous nutjob. John Leguizamo tells a story about him on the set of Executive Decision, that ends with Seagal's hands around his throat or some kind of Kung Fu grip he threw on him for chuckling at how arrogant he was

Dunno about that, but he does make some good movies. 'On Deadly Ground' is arguably his finest movie !!
