One would think, that an actor, director or writer gets better over time, but that's not the case here.
Thomas had 20 years and countless movies to improve, yet all he does, he does worse.
His films won't show new skills but rather the state of his soul life, which is on the decline for years. He falls apart and so do his movies.
He won't listen to critics (in his little own world they are all haters) and he hardly finds anybody to work with him. Everything can be seen here.
