Out of these, Hitchcock or Spielberg.

No. Making cuck puns out of names is far below Reddit tier faggotry.
>>
>>70636780
Scorsese has the highest number of great films, lowest number of poor films and has been the most consistently strong for the longest period.

Kubrick was exceptional but not really an actor's director.

Hitchcock was a genius but had his fair share of average films.

Tarantino has only made one bad film but he has pulled a lot from other directors stylistically. There's nothing really wrong with this except the fact that some of his best known choices are carbon copies of someone else's work.

Wes Anderson is talented but he's getting a bit same-y in terms of aesthetics and stories.

Allen is a better screenwriter than director. His most artistic films are unashamed rip offs of Bergman or Fellini.

Spielberg is a masterful director yet too often works with schmatlz or just uninspiring projects. He doesn't make anything bad but doesn't push himself in terms of projects chosen.

Coppola was a genius for a decade. I know he broke himself with Apocalypse Now but his 70s were as good as it gets as a filmmaker. If he had retired in the 80s he'd be looked back on in with the same sort of awe that Orson Welles receives.

He just ate a lemon you moron.

>when you are so stupid that you don't know that Scorsese loves lemons.

>when you are so idiotic that you've never read that he oft has a lemon or another citrus in his mouth when filming.

>So fucking dumb that you've never heard that he had scurvy as a boy and ever since feels the most comfortable with the skin of a citrus in his mouth.

Get out of here you plebian, go read a book, and make it his biography, if you can.

In edging and wanting to be dominated maybe.

Spielberg is king of the plebs.

Coppola will bounce back and get that reputation later.
>>
>>70636981
Scorcese is also the most diverse of them all. He can go in any genre and he brings in his distincitve style, without compromising the tone of the genre.
>>
>>70636780
Where's Alejandro inaritu?

Where's the wachowski sisters?

Where Michael bay?

Coppola's Twixt was a misunderstood masterpiece. I really thought that was his big comeback, but no...

Thanks senpai

>>70637088
Yeah, that's a good point.
>>
>>70636803
Kubrik to defend me because I think he'd be best suited to murdering people and I wouldn't want him coming after me. I also think he'd be the most likely to resist Spielberg's payoff tactic.

Hitchcock's size and Tarantino's aggression might be difficult to deal with, but I still have confidence that Kubrick could handle them. None of the other directors except for Coppola should be any problem. Allen would probably just stand there and apologize instead of actually trying to kill me.

Not too many directors bounce back after almost 40 years of mediocrity and start making their best work.

I'd love to be proved wrong but I honestly don't think he has another great film in him.
>>
>>70637154
Getting jewed to death in your own hypothetical is a horrible way to go.

He's way more talented than Tarantino though.
>>
>>70637154
>Tarantino's aggression

Tarantino strikes me as a jack russell. All yappy and willing to fight but if push comes to shove he either runs away or gets picked up by the scruff of the neck and has the shit shaken out of him.
>>
>>70637222
That's what happens in most of his movie roles. Maybe he's really like that, or he's a fucking pycho who tries to downplay his aggresive tendencies with a "look at how much of a cucky whimp I am" facade?

He' very overt about being a wuss and liking feet... what if he's actually a necrophiliac serial killer

Not really. They're about the same. Not yet in the league of the other six, but getting there.
>>
>>70637329
You're basing your judgement on their more recent movies, but Woody/Spielberg were very influencial and their erlier movies changed cinema. Same with Tarantino and Anderson, but to a less important degree.
>>
>>70636861
Sound reasoning, bro. Assign yourself a "pleb" trip so I can know to skip your opinions from here on out, would us?

hitchcock obviously. dude knows all the tricks.

kubrick is the best though, obviously. perhaps the only true genius in cinema (much like hero, that word gets thrown around way too loosely.)
>>
>>70636803
Spielberg. He's rich enough to either pay people to give up, or pay others to help build necessary shit. If it comes down to fighting, he has Eagle Scout training to survive in the wilderness and use weapons.
>>
>>70636803
Definitely Kubrick, he'd probably be prepared to do some crazy shit

To be fair, if you put Woody's surname nobody would recognize it. Allen is his first name. It would be like listing a bunch of performers and under the picture of Madonna putting "Ciccone". His last name is Konigsburg.
