Sims Posted July 12, 2013 Share Posted July 12, 2013 Martin Scorsese - yeah, I said it. I really LIKE a lot of his movies (Taxi Driver, Goodfellas, Hugo, among others), but nothing from him has really "blown me away." Plus, his shtick is often quite formulaic and predictable. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sims Posted July 12, 2013 Share Posted July 12, 2013 The thing about Coppola is that he has four masterpieces and absolutely nothing else worth watching. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sims Posted July 12, 2013 Share Posted July 12, 2013 Joss Whedon's a good one. His only talent is his knowledge of geek culture. Cobble together a bunch of lame, faux-witty one-liners and call it genius writing. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luna Posted July 12, 2013 Author Share Posted July 12, 2013 i don't think i'll ever be able to consider malick overrated even if i find the rest of his movies shit...because a new world is a stunning, tragic masterpiece. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think FFC is a bad director and I don't dislike the Godfather's but I do think they and many of his films are vastly over rated.

Is your sole purpose here to show us your dick every chance you get? You always seem to want to make this some kind of neandrathal like contest where the only good director in the world is Nolan and everything to do with Marvel is shit. You're like a broken record. It's kind of funny but really sad. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

baumer Posted July 12, 2013 Share Posted July 12, 2013 I get the Clint Eastwood thing. I like a lot of films but some of them are over rated imo as well. Doesn't mean they are bad, just over rated. Guillermo Del Toro Peter Jackson 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

baumer Posted July 12, 2013 Share Posted July 12, 2013 I thought Unforgiven was a fine film but not even close to best picture or director material. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
