vc2002 Posted January 8, 2014 Share Posted January 8, 2014 (edited) Cameron reverse-engineered to make sure his movies weren't like them at all. :PLook, you're not going to find A-list directors saying negative things about each other, and they'll always find something positive to say when asked. That's simply the name of the game. Of cause they won't. This is a harsh business and Bay is one of the most hard working and successful directors right now and I'm sure Spielberg and Cameron, who's been long and successful enough in this business to know how much it takes to become a successful director like that, know it better than anyone else.

Walt Disney Posted January 8, 2014 Share Posted January 8, 2014 I went the distance and listed the 100 best directors. Paul Thomas Anderson didn't make my list. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baumer Posted January 8, 2014 Share Posted January 8, 2014 I had an anger that chilled my bones when I watched Melancholia. Therefore, I am happy to say that I am happy to say Von Trier is not anywhere near my list. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jake Gittes Posted January 8, 2014 Share Posted January 8, 2014 A great film Walter Hill has directed is The Driver (sadly, it's pretty much the only one of his I've seen). Great little piece of minimalistic neo-noir with a stoic Ryan O'Neal, an unhinged Bruce Dern, a very young and very beautiful Isabelle Adjani and a shitton of atmosphere (dat LA at nighttime). Required viewing for everyone who loves Refn's Drive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jessie Posted January 8, 2014 Share Posted January 8, 2014 1) Spielberg said on numerous occasions how he's a huge Bay fan. 2) Cameron said on numerous occasions how he's a huge Bay fan. 3) Nolan said on numerous occasions how he's a huge Bay fan. 4) Cameron said he studied Bay's films. You have 1, 2, 3 yet to prove. You will get my apology once you did that.You're wrong at the end of the day and now you're just being too stubborn to admit it. You called me a bullshitter, I proved you wrong and now you still can't bring yourself to accept it making you look even more of a douche. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You called me a bullshitter, I proved you wrong and now you still can't bring yourself to accept it making you look even more of a douche. You proved that I was wrong on 4. I'm still waiting for your proving your 1, 2 and 3 right. Nolan never talks a lot openly, so you can forget about 3. That means you did bullshit about that. I searched a lot on 1 and 2 and found nothing to support them. So 75% of your post in page 6 is still bullshit.
