there is a secret often used snub name in hollywood , for a film that is deemed too bad for any director/producer to have his real name tarnished with ,,,,,, they call it an ALAN SMYTHE film ,,,,,,,,, or directed by ALAN SMYTHE etc ,,,,,,,,,
so is this the worlds worse filmmaker part ?
also vincent price played a villain called ''egg head'' in the batman series (how did i know that lol :P )

Tim Burton is the answer. One of Burton's first film projects was a six minute short called Vincent (narrated by Mr Price) >Burton also made Batman, Ed Wood and Sleepy Hollow.

he can neglect to turn on his journey meter in favour of blatantly tucking you up for a few extra sovereigns on a trip you have taken several hundreds of times.
he can also specify he will 2 minutes when phoned,knowing full well he will be 20 and when phoned back he is always just round the corner.
