Who's your favorite director?



uncabeeil -> RE: Who's your favorite director? (6/27/2008 3:23:34 PM)

It's a tossup between Mel Brooks and John Ford.



PrincessButtercup -> RE: Who's your favorite director? (6/27/2008 3:24:16 PM)

Peter Jackson.



ldzppln3 -> RE: Who's your favorite director? (6/27/2008 3:47:49 PM)

Martin Scorsese is my favorite director. The man is a genius behind the camers.



horsepill -> RE: Who's your favorite director? (6/27/2008 7:25:56 PM)

Can't go lower than my five: M. Night Shyamalan, Ron Howard, Peter Jackson, Tim Burton and Ridley Scott. [:)]



henny -> RE: Who's your favorite director? (6/28/2008 10:26:42 AM)

I can't name just 1 (although it'd probably be RWF).

Top Ten:

Rainer Werner Fassbinder
Werner Herzog
Guy Maddin
Agnes Varda
Stanley Kubrick
Robert Altman
John Cassavettes
Lars Von Trier
Pedro Almodovar

Can't think of a definite 10th.



colliefan -> RE: Who's your favorite director? (6/28/2008 3:16:46 PM)

Really showinng my age: David Lean. And, no, he didn't direct silent movies.



DreadPirateRandy -> RE: Who's your favorite director? (6/28/2008 5:28:11 PM)

I don't "get" why everyone is fascinated with Peter Jackson. Aside from King Kong (which wasn't even good, in my opinion) and Lord of the Rings, the rest of his work is decent at best.



1love1God1way -> RE: Who's your favorite director? (6/28/2008 6:12:59 PM)

Ingmar Bergman.

Most definitely.



MrFribbles -> RE: Who's your favorite director? (6/28/2008 6:15:08 PM)

Tarantino and Burton. Can't pick between those two.



Bas -> RE: Who's your favorite director? (6/29/2008 1:21:29 AM)

Bergman is the master. No one can touch him.



brothertodd -> RE: Who's your favorite director? (7/4/2008 5:16:24 PM)

Akira Kurosawa:
Seven Samurai,
Yojimbo,
Dodes'ka-den,
Sanjuro,
Ran,
Kagemusha,
Ikiru,
Rashomon,
Kurosawas "Dreams"
His films have influenced many spagetti westerns like Magnificant Seven (7 Samurai) and a Fist full of Dollars (Yojimbo and it is almost verbatem except the samurai are gunslingers)
He is also a major influence on George Lucas. probably why the jedi's apperal look like samurai



BeachLover99 -> RE: Who's your favorite director? (7/5/2008 6:48:36 PM)

My personal favorite is Ron Howard (loved Apollo 13 and Cocoon). Alan Alda runs a close second...



McFatty -> RE: Who's your favorite director? (7/5/2008 7:42:55 PM)

I tried, but I can't find anyone to beat William Freidkin, Akira Kurisawa, and John Ford.



BlackCapnHarlock -> RE: Who's your favorite director? (7/5/2008 9:49:51 PM)

Ridley Scott
and Robert Zemeckis are good.

Q. Tarantino is very over rated.

I am also a big Coen Brothers fan . . except for the Big Lewbowski and The Ladykillers.

Kubrick is all right just atheistic and boring at times.



ConstantReader -> RE: Who's your favorite director? (7/13/2008 1:13:32 AM)

All-time: Alfred Hitchcock.

More recently: Christopher Nolan.



PhrozenPhoenix -> RE: Who's your favorite director? (7/13/2008 3:32:59 AM)

Tim Burton and Jim Henson are my tops. They are/were amazing directors IMO. Runner ups would be James Cameron and Quinton Tarantino. More recently, Guillermo Del Toro.



sudden -> RE: Who's your favorite director? (7/21/2008 4:32:20 PM)

Bill Forsythe. No ones movies have touched me as his have.

Sudden
