Dawid 0 Report post Posted October 9, 2004 Hi, just wondering who your favourite directors are? Not just commercial and mainstream ones, lets hear from the art goons out there!Personally mine is Guy Ritchie (Snatch, Lock Stock & Two smoking barrells)- I really dig his style.

shigajet 0 Report post Posted April 11, 2005 Ditto for Guy Ritchie, but I also like Vincent Gallo's "Buffalo 66" and Kevin Smith's "Clerks".As for commercial directors, gotta go with James Cameron - mainly for the two Terminator movies he directed. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sprnknwn 0 Report post Posted April 13, 2005 My favourite director is David Lynch. I love his films, specially Eraserhead, Lost Highway, Blue Velvet and Mulholland Drive. Yeah... it?s true... I don?t even understand some of his stories, but is not neccesary to appreciate his surrealistic talent and his great work in visuals and soundtracks that make their films (specially Lost Highway) audiovisual delights. In sci-fi I like the two Vincenzo Natali films (Cube and Zephyr).I also like the first Bryan Singer films, the first Kevin Smith ones, same with David Fincher... (why everybody ends up doing hollywood *BLEEP*?) by the way, that first two films of Guy Ritchie are excellent but I think Madonna has killed his filming taste. Oh, I would add Terry Gillian, Clint Eastwood and of course, the old Scorsese.And spanish directors such as Alejandro Amenabar (one more time, his earlier work), Isabel Coixet, Juanma Bajo Ulloa, Fernando Le?n, Luis Bu?uel (a classic) and one from Argentina, Adolfo Aristarain. Check them out. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

wakelim 0 Report post Posted July 30, 2005 Peter Jackson and Ridley Scott are two good directors of their genres that are superb filmakers. I also like the Wronskili brothers (or some such name), who did the Matrix. Its really well directed, even though I don't like the second and third ones. Spielberg rocks, although I'm not sure how much directing George Lucus actually does. I think he's mostly producer. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
