Yeah, agreed. I think they're judged a lot more harshly when compared to his '70s work (I mean, we're talking about some of the greatest American films ever made, so that there's a pretty high benchmark), but if any other director had Peggy Sue Got Married, Rumble Fish, The Outsiders, Gardens of Stone, Tucker: The Man and His Dream and, yes, even visual marvels/noble failures like The Cotton Club and One From The Heart under their belt over the course of a decade, most would agree that's not too shabby.
