For me: The Coen Brothers, Stanley Kubrick, Christopher Nolan (more his writing than directing)

I did like Full Metal Jacket though, but that was pretty much the only Kubrick film I cared for. I liked the book version of Clockwork Orange, but damn I think I only liked 1 scene in the movie.

He is pretty bad but he still directed The Rock. I loved that movie. Armageddon was decent for a popcorn flick and The Island had its moments.

I think I am the only person I know who liked Sunshine. Though the way he filmed the ending sequence, I don't know what he did but it makes me nauseous.

Lars von Trier - He's a pretentious, narcissist, misogynist madman who will go out of his way to be controversial and seems to be proud of it! He actually had the nerve to declare himself the greatest filmmaker in the world. I was nearly physically sick watching Antichrist - it made my bottom 10 list!! Worst of all, we probably have at least another 20 years of this fiend to endure!

I thought 28 days later was horse ****

And spongebob millionaire was a terrible adaptation of a very good novel

Danny boyle should be tied down and beaten.

But i on the other hand, love Kubrick. He revolutionised movie making and we should all be thanking him, IMO

Funny how he declares himself the greatest filmmaker in the world when most people probably have never even heard of him. I heard Antichrist was pretty bad, they had actual pornstars for the sex scenes and stuff like that?

What were they? I don't want to watch the actual movie because I don't think I want to actually see it in action.

Quentin Tarantino. Every movie he's done has been garbage. Even the newest Nazi one is only worth seeing once. And just for the Nazi scalping and the bear jew.

Oh come on!

Resevoir Dogs and Pulp Fiction are two of the greatest films around.

And Tarantino, as a director and a writer, is brilliant

The ending of The Island was a bit of a letdown I agree. Still the first hour was pretty good.

Personally I don't think he is all that great. I liked Inglorious Basterds and Jackie Brown though. Pulp Fiction was good but I mean after all these years its just so overplayed and well I am sick of it now. I hated Kill Bill.

I don't mind him as a director but as a writer I think he can write some really bad dialogue. I know its cliche but the scenes with Anakin and Padme in some of the Star Wars prequel's made me cringe.

Yeah him. He made a movie with a symbol of every religion in the world getting burned or ****ed up, but not the Ka'ba becase he was scared of Muslims doing a Fatwa on him.

He diden't. V was directed by Irvin Kershner and VI was directed by Richard Marquand.

I agree with you as well saying there are much better Sci Fi movies out there than Star Wars. I don't mind the films but I am not really a fan.

I agree Avatar was nothing special but I disagree on T2. I really liked that and Aliens. He seems like such an arrogant jerk though in general that I rather not seem like I am defending him. He kinda annoys me anytime I read interviews he gives.

Out of all the Star Wars movies I would say Empire was my fav. It was the only one to really keep me interested from start to finish and I agree it was a good twist at the time.

Michael Bay is the worst. I can't tell if he actually likes his work, or just hopes the youth of America will get off on it. His work is despicable.

I have seen city on fire, and it is very good.

But the truth is, the majority of the mainstream market hadn't seen it. (i don't believe QT hadn't seen it, being a cinophile and working in a vid store) but there is absolutely nothing wrong with paying homage to another movie, or even taking it's ideas, and making them into something mainstream.

It's no different to Scorscese making The Departed and NOT calling it a remake, which it quite blatently is.

pearl harbor was one of the worst movies ever made, and transformers was a seizurefest with shia lablouf screaming half the movie. atleast uwe boll knows he's cool, but michael bay thinks he's cool. michael bay = sunset, explosion, car, babe, nerd. thats it

Watch this and then try to tell me Reservoir Dogs is the best film ever. Not to mention the fact that Tarantino denies ever seeing the previous flick...

I have seen city on fire, and it is very good.

But the truth is, the majority of the mainstream market hadn't seen it. (i don't believe QT hadn't seen it, being a cinophile and working in a vid store) but there is absolutely nothing wrong with paying homage to another movie, or even taking it's ideas, and making them into something mainstream.

It's no different to Scorscese making The Departed and NOT calling it a remake, which it quite blatently is.

Seemed like he ripped the plot right from that movie. I want to direct some movies some day, I'm doing to try out QT's style. Hr takes from everyone, but sometimes he toes the line at stealing other people's stuff.
