IndustriousAngel Posted July 4, 2014 Share Posted July 4, 2014 100? Wow that's a lot ... too much in fact, but here's my few 10/10s from imdb in alphabetical order, so Woody is in front: Allen - Sleeper Brooks - Young Frankenstein Carpenter - The Thing Crichton - A Fish Called Wanda Dante - Gremlins 2 Jeunet - Amélie Jones - Life of Brian Lynch - The Straight Story Parrot - The Music Box (That's a Laurel&Hardy short) Reggio - Koyaanisqatsi Reitherman - The Aristocats Scott - Alien Then there's a bunch of 9/10 but really that's too much work Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rorschach Posted July 4, 2014 Share Posted July 4, 2014 ^^Gremlins 2 is one of my favorites too. It actually predicted the Food Network, The Golf Channel, and so many more! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

luna Posted July 5, 2014 Author Share Posted July 5, 2014 Well, some filmmakers from whom I've seen all their films or at least all the essential ones: man, i'd like to complete filmographies too, but there's a lot to do! i think all i can say is... david lynch (except dune) lars von trier (except nymphomaniac) terrence malick (except to the wonder) jean vigo lee unkrich Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jake Gittes Posted July 5, 2014 Share Posted July 5, 2014 I still rarely complete filmographies 100%. I think the only filmmakers who've made more than 10 films and I've seen every single one are Cronenberg and Jarmusch. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rorschach Posted July 5, 2014 Share Posted July 5, 2014 My favorite movies are the big blockbuster action movies. Now that doesn't mean I don't have any smaller movies on my all time list (Ed Wood is my favorite out of all of those though). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
