What happened to David Gordon Green?

His first four films made him out to be the next Terrence Malick (Terrence Malick produced his third film), and Pineapple Express was a very good movie. But ever since then he has been so hit or miss. He tried to go the studio comedy route and failed, made two good indies, did a film with Pacino that got middling reviews, did a studio film with Sandra Bullock that was the biggest bomb of her career and got poor reviews.

What happened to this guy? I wonder if he can get back to his former glory. I watched an interview that he gave a while back when he was promoting Pineapple express. He talked about how his indie films really couldn't find an audience. I think that's been his biggest struggle, his films outside of Pineapple express lack an immediate audience.
