The last few he made sucked so it seems like its been quite some time
since he was in a movie. (The Weatherman, Lords of War) Maybe make some
decent flicks and do it say - once or twice a year?

Apparently, if he's set up shop in the Bahamas, he plans to cut back
on paying taxes too.

Well, someone probably asked him and he just said what was on his
mind. That is how it seems to me. That's very different from his
making a press release just to announce he's probably going to cut
back on films.

I think his last movie was the "World Trade Center" movie.

Now that he's on his fourth wife (half his age) and a new baby, maybe he
wants to be home more.

Cant blame him for that. He probably just wants to sleep with her. New
baby, hey, he probably wants to actually sleep.

I saw Leaving Las Vegas. Then there was "The Rock", and then
"Con Air". I think he's been cutting back on acting for a while.
