Why he might be annoying:

He looks like a younger and hairier Billy Joel.
He spent 17 years between his two movies.

Why he might not be annoying:

After seeing '2001: A Space Odyssey' at nine years old, he wanted to be a director.
He won the 1997 MTV Video Vanguard Award for his contribution of directing music videos for years.
Many people consider him a genius and many people believe he has a creative look on things and that his videos are artistic and creative with smart ideas.
After he heard Johnny Cash's cover of the Nine Inch Nails' song, 'Hurt,' he was very moved and deeply affected by it, so he asked and begged Cash if he could direct it for free.
Trent Reznor (the writer of that song) and Zach de la Rocha (former lead singer of Rage Against the Machine), were so saddened by the video that they were both in tears.
His music videos have won over a dozen MTV VMA's, two Grammy Awards, three Clios and three Billboard Music Awards.
Two videos that he directed, Madonna's, 'Bedtime Story' and Nine Inch Nails' 'Closer,' are part of the permanent collection of New York's Museum of Modern Art.
