- Has made films in perhaps the widest range of genres in the history of cinema: Comedies, action movies, adventure movies, musicals, westerns, erotic films and even religious films.
- He's nicknamed "Jet" because he was known for completing films in a very short time. In one case, he did a feature length film within only 24 hours. That ability, however, came with a sacrifice in terms of quality: Because he didn't like re-shoots, he used imperfect and ruined shots in his films.
