That POV bit I just removed about genre films was one that I added way back in the mists of UseModWiki history. I remember adding that, thinking it was important; but this time I'm reading it, wondering why I should assume anyone would agree with that assessment. LOL. Koyaanis Qatsi 17:53 19 Jun 2003 (UTC)

Isn't "Straight Talk" with Dolly Parton also a JS film?

I removed a listing for ''Jurassic Park IV'' from the list of "John Sayles'" films, as it is only a writing credit. Sayles is well known to do a fair amount of script doctoring or straight up script assignment work simply for the payday. These are not "his" films, but jobs he takes to pay the bills and/or help finance his own work. As is noted in the article RoyBatty42 17:29, 2 November 2006 (UTC)Reply
