Re: Merged: The Movies Thread

^No we're cool mredskins

Since it is a movie thread I thought I'd ask a movie related question.

Who is the best director today in terms of successful films? By successful I mean a majority of audiences and/or critics like the movie.

My choice would be Christopher Nolan. The guy has yet to have a bad movie, IMO.

Agreed Christopher Nolan or Ridley Scott.

Tarantinos another one, although some didn't think highly of Jackie Brown and Death Proof.

I personally think Tarantino is super overrated. I'd agree about someone naming David Fincher and if he keeps up the pace he's on, Ben Affleck.

Yeah Affleck has been doing real well in the directors chair. I still haven't seen Gone Baby Gone but the Town was good and Argo was great.

Speaking of Fincher, another great movie he did which didn't get much attention but was really good was Girl with the Dragon Tattoo. That was one of my favorites a few years ago.

Dragon Tattoo was excellent, a little long in the end, but still very good.

Weird thing was at the begginning of the movie that chick was hideous, by the end of the movie i wanted to make her my number one f*ck buddy. dont know if id take home to mom

100% on the chick. It was her, lets say, 'desire' and her being up front, cut the bs attitude toward the end of the movie that made her do a complete 180 for me.

Plus Rooney Mara is sexy when she isn't dressed up like a gothic freak.
