Vince Vaughn is like bell bottoms, or women wearing shoulder pads, or parachute pants, or mullets.... For some reason they were "cool" once, but everyone moves on and realizes it was really just a little embarrassing.
Vince Vaughn never changed. He's still exactly the same.
Or, he both quit hanging around creative filmmakers and started trying to be a Hollywood movie star by working uninteresting commercial fare.
I mean, he was the man in SWINGERS and Spielberg saw that early edit and casted him on the spot for that LOST WORLD movie of his. Then Vaughn simply went where the paychecks and a free lunch could be found.
A pity, but Ben Affleck fell for that same bullshit too. At least Affleck is following his buddy Matt Damon's paradigm for choosing the right project to work on. His recently released directed picture GONE BABY GONE is a surprisingly pretty good drama.
But until Vaughn does something remarkable with his star power, he can fuck off.
