Hey Dru...
I'm really not here to fight people's battles, but I know Richard personally and have been friends with him now for about 3 years. His humility is neither hollow nor phony. He's one of the most genuine people I've met out here in L.A., and in this town that's a rare thing. There wouldn't have been a 25th Anniversary convention had it not been for him because no one was picking up the reins, and what's unfolded to now regarding the mini even being made probably has more to do with him mortaging his house and making that trailer than anything else. I don't think Universal really recognized the value of the property they were sitting on while it was languishing until he brought it to their attention, and then they started shopping it around to others. It's not surprising, studios here don't really have much going in the ethics department when it comes to treating people right and Richard has been unjustly maligned by many to suit their own agendas.
