Waste?
Judd's made a couple decent, funny films - any chance of him making any more? Cuz it's been a while. Sticking to the same tired formula is not likely to produce any winners. The law of diminishing returns.
His father was a record exec, I get the impression he's got "merch" in his blood. There are artists and there are studio hacks...id say Judd has made his choice. Or maybe it was not a choice, maybe he wasn't that good to begin with?
