Career-O-Matic

Rotten Tomatoes can now graph a director or actor's movies according to their critical ratings, showing a kind of career directory. So you can see M. Night Shyamalan getting worse and worse, or Woody Allen getting gradually worse... hmmm, well, theoretically the average director gets better, but Famous Directors seem only to get worse. (Possibly because they no longer have to listen to anyone. See Lucas, George.)

Anyway, fun to play with....

  1. I'd be interested to see this applied to Hollywood writers.

  2. I'd love to see Lucas, George but strangely he doesn't show up. Neither does Stanley Kubrick--even stranger.

    Hi, Mr. Epstein

    I apologize for using the comments for this purpose, but I didn't see a contact page.

    I found your site through "By Ken Levine" and love it! I was wondering if you'd be interested in trading links with me. My site (http://www.craighartonline.com) is mostly humor, along the lines of The Onion. Check it out if you wish and I hope to hear from you soon!
