Couldn't agree with you more about the dumb special effects movies, McGrath.

But regarding James Stewart...it's not the fact that he talks so much that bothers me. I often like movies with lots of dialogue. It's the way he talks that bothers me. :-) I'd almost rather die by skink inhalation than have to sit through 2 or 3 more hours of that. I think he has less charisma than Don Knotts.

It's a matter of taste, I guess. I love Bogart.
