He didn't want his kids to be around that so he just left. He was a great director and just a good normal guy that is a rarity. i have a lot of respect for hughes i heard he left the business because he hated what it was doing to people around him mainly that his best friend John candy he felt was worked too hard causing his death.

He even provide the 'story' for Drillbit Taylor, but that's the bare bones of a movie like that. Essentially he began withdrawing from being a major Hollywood player a while ago.
