What other side would that be? I've been as patient as I can be, as a fan of his films, and there is absolutely no explanation for the poor quality work coming from him lately other than he simply doesn't care. You can see the difference between his early films and his latest ones - he cared about what he was doing when he was first starting out. Cared about it so passionately he put 100% of himself into the films. Gasp! He even did post-production work!
We're lucky now if 50% of the scenes where it's supposed to be him actually have him in it, either physically or vocally. And most of the time he looks like he's asleep, hungover or his mind is on something else other than the scene he's supposed to be acting in.
He knows his fans will apologise for his shortcomings and buy and rent whatever kind of rubbishy film he puts out, so why should he exert himself?
That's why I do not believe he cares about his fans. We're the ones that made him successful; and we're the ones that are accepting his low standard of quality of work, by being apologists. He can do better, if he wants to- he just doesn't want to.
