    So he's a people's hero. Also, regardless of alleged interim dickishness, he's still the auteur of "Swingers" and "Go." I think he wins..

    If I had a sailboat in NYC, damn straight I'd be out on that thing every day way past 1am. And so would all my very sexy new friends.

    Technically, wouldn't it be the speedboat that crashed into the cargo ship?

    "Oddly, the AP seems to have gotten the scoop because the two men happened to have been at the news cooperative's New York headquarters "

    If I were an asshole, I might make up a self-serving story about saving three people from drowning, too. But that's me, if I were an asshole.

    Here's why I think Doug Liman stinks.
    True story: I once went out on a couple of dates with his brother Louis. Let me say... the reason there wasn't more is that Louis did not bathe. He smelled breathtakingly bad. He totally traded on the "My dad is a famous lawyer" crap. And it wasn't like he was trying to prove anything - he just didn't understand the point of taking a shower.
    I was also graced at that time with an audience with Doug. He, too, has only a nodding acquaintance with soap. It is unbelievable.

    @FormerEnglishMajor: If it's that unbearable what prompted you to see him more than once? But that's just me. I don't like smelly people in general. Maybe you're more tolerant.

    @Paul.B.Dodd: I thought on the first date, maybe I was just being picky, or he'd just gone to the gym, or maybe the dry cleaners messed up his shirt. The second date - there was no doubt. It was during my 'give everyone a second chance' phase. Which didn't last long.

    The story doesn't explain what the fuck they were doing on a sailboat in the Hudson River at one o'clock in the morning..

    @smithhimself: Hollywood "hollowed-out Cuban cigars," no doubt.
    (Try saying that aloud, 3x fast.)
