Mike Honcho 4,034 Posted October 21, 2014 Hitchcock (of course) Kubrick Polanski Scorsese Cohen Bros De Palma Michael Haneke Dario Argento Honorable mention: Sam Peckinpah, Takashe Miike, Sergio Martino, John Carpenter, Sam Raimi, Tobe Hooper, Sergio Leone, many many others. Who you got? LIke your list, I'm a little more mainstrain in my tastes, so in no particular order Raimi, Leone(just pulled Once upon a Time in America off the shelf to watch again), Spielberg, Coppola, Fincher, Ridley Scott. Aronofsky, Nolan, Kubric, Scorsese, Burton, Tarantino and Eastwood. If I'm going older, Welles(love Touch of Evil, Kane and Ambersons), Hawks, Ford, & Hitchcock, Chaplin---Peckinpah just for The Wild Bunch. I want to put James Cameron on the list, but he's already on my list of people I want to punch in the face, so... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TimmySmith 2,782 Posted October 21, 2014 Always loved Spielberg and therefore Lean. Capra Scorcese Mel Gibson Welles Ridley Scott Oliver Stone made about 3 perfect films Kubrick is too heavy handed for my taste. Coen Brothers either big hit or big miss.

TimmySmith 2,782 Posted October 21, 2014 Curious as to what 3 perfect films you give Stone? Salvador, Platoon, Wall Street. With honorable mentions to Talk Radio & The Doors. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mike Honcho 4,034 Posted October 21, 2014 Salvador, Platoon, Wall Street. With honorable mentions to Talk Radio & The Doors. The Doors was right around the time I started getting sick of him, forgot about Wall Street though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TimmySmith 2,782 Posted October 21, 2014 The Doors was right around the time I started getting sick of him, forgot about Wall Street though. BOTFOJ was a very good film, but too long and too preachy at the end. NBK and JFK were terrible IMO. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MDC 5,891 Posted October 22, 2014 Cannot believe nobody said Mel Brooks. Other than Young Frankenstein I don't like his movies much. Terry Gilliam was a really good call. Kind of surprised nobody named Woody Allen or Clint Eastwood. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mike Honcho 4,034 Posted October 23, 2014 Yeah but we're talking real pedo, not jail bait pedo No Polanski is real pedo too---drugging and raping a 13 year is pretty focking real. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MDC 5,891 Posted October 23, 2014 That and the fact that he is the most overrated filmmaker ever. I'm not a fan but he's made a bajillion movies and people seem to like him. His newer dramatic stuff is IMO a lot better than the old comedies he's mostly known for. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TimmySmith 2,782 Posted October 23, 2014 The first time I read this, I thought you were saying Clint was over-rated. I like Clint, although i get the rap that he is not a stickler for detail. He makes a good film for everyone. Woody makes films that about 50 people in NY like and because they do, lemmings follow. Another Director not mentioned is Sydney Pollack. I really like his films. He tells a great story without a bunch of fluff. An actor's director. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
