No mention of Lynch, no Zemeckis, no Ridley Scott

Uncultured.

David Lynch is the most underrated of all time. He's my #2 and should be yours too

I like Cameron, Scott etc.. Tarantino.
Spielberg pretty much set the standard for the blockbuster movie
Bergman, Kurosawa, Bresson and Tarkovsky get a nod for there impact and influence on cinema as a whole.

All bad lol. Signs was the only thing there I remotely liked and that was because of the casting. The Village started off dope then quickly became shit about midway. The Happening was some of the worst writing I've ever seen and Glass was a complete disappointment compared to Unbreakable and Split.

Have you watched Us?

I liked Get Out better when it was a Twilight Zone episode from the 70s and not as racially charged.

Pakistani Hand Cannon
10-26-2021, 11:36 PM

Get Out was race bait of the highest order, an amazing movie, the only thing that ruined it was them preying on black people, which made absolutely no sense and they only offered one sentence of an explanation for it happening. But hey, get in where you fit in, Jordan Peele.

Us was just a bad movie, it was great until the end and u found out where they came from, which ruined the whole thing

Literally didn't read the topic. Acceptable answers are Scorsese and P.T. Anderson.

1) Big trouble in little China
2)The Dark Knight Rises/The Dark Knight & Batman Begins -fuck it. The whole Batman Trilogy from Christopher Nolan goes on this list as a single pick cause ya...
3)The Shining
4)Original TMNT
5)Goonies

Lynch’s Muholland Dr is one of my favs so he gets a nod

Eraserhead blew my mind as a youngster. Like wtf am I watching

guys like kurosawa, kubrick and scorsese were kinda in a league of their own (i'd add bergman and tartovsky if i'd actually seen (more of) their stuff, probably)

villeneuve, pt anderson, lynch, coppola, ridley scott are respectable mentions

slept on ITT: aronofsky, coen bros, inarritu, joon-ho, peter jackson, winding refn, terrence malick, fincher

probably lots i'm sleeping on too tbf, either not knowing who did the films, or forgetting the director's body of work

actually no, hayao miyazaki is the best director ever. there, i said it.

some of the mentions in this thread tho, man
