I'm not trying to get points for being "edgy". why does having an opinion where I don't like Nolan's work become "le edgy"?

He's just implying that you're a closed minded atheist. Not that you have to be Christian to enjoy the film. Have you ever seen it? I haven't but heard its great (mostly from Christians, admittedly)

The bible has some really great stories in it, but passion of the christ was just 3 hours of whipping jesus. The movie barely told a story at all.
>>70638907
You're right though.

Big guy rises is his worst but even that isn't exactly bad even with the epic meming
Scorsese
The worst he's done is "mediocre".
>>70638919
It was a 7.5/10 average capeshit it was on the same level as avengers and ant man and crap
>>70638725
>>70640040
It wasn't, you fucking idiot.
Aronofsky is the closest. He's only had one misfire, I'll let you guess which.
>>70639960
>>70638725
Roman Polanski
>>70638881
His films are poorly written, poorly edited, every camera set up or scene construction is a master class in how to be as unimaginative as possible. He takes good ideas and he makes mediocre films out of them. He's a professional waster of ideas. His films range from boring to laughable.
Even if you're blinded by the idea on the first watch, it only takes a second watch before you realize there's literally nothing there. The narratives unfold like shit because he's a formalist at heart who doesn't care about plot or characters, but unlike the great cinema formalists, his technique is garbage. It'd be better for him if he did care about his characters and then he could be some sentimental hack like Rob Reiner and act like form doesn't matter when you've got stories to tell. As it stands, though, he's successful only at tricking 14 year old boys into thinking he's like totally deep, bro.

>>70640040
You think TDKR and Avengers is 7.5/10 level? Woah, are you retarded or something?
>>70639903
EWS is Kubrick's worst unless we're talking about faith to adaptation of the source material, in which case The Shining is the worst.
EWS is only held high because it was his last and he died shortly after. Even Cruise's acting is mediocre, which is rare for him.

Not that guy, but EWS is my favorite Kubrick and in my opinion his best. In terms of total cohesion to a theme and enjoyability.
Plus saying any major Kubrick is "Kubrick's worst" is stupid considering Fear and Desire and that other shit. And also the fact that Clockwork Orange is mediocre as fuck.
>>70640543
Malcolm McDowell made Clockwork what it is. The scene where he returns to the old man's house with David Prowse was fucking excellent. Plus Kubrick's modified dark ending that strayed from the book was good. Subjective opinions I guess, I enjoyed it way more than EWS.

He's great, but he has had a few unlucky attempts. Knight of cups was not good, and neither was tree of life. I don't know if I'd call them bad, but certainly far below his average.

You don't need that name to advertise the fact that you're retarded.
>>70639424
Not him, but I can't see how someone who isn't a fundamentalist christian would be able to enjoy that movie. It's just a christian snuff film. I understand that christians love it since they have a deeprooted personal emotional investment in the story, but otherwise, it's just tortureporn.

Rian Johnson. His films range from good to great. Brothers Bloom is his least amazing from what I can tell from online gasbags, but I personally loved it. And Brick was masterclass for an imaginative debut.

I'm not particularly religious or atheistic, but the Passion of the Christ is a great film. For someone to really think it was bad they have to have some kind of other vested interests in my opinion. I can't get close to imagining a better way of telling that story on the screen than the way that Mel did it.
Of we're talking best Mel Hinson film, Apocalypto has to be mentioned. I absolutely loved that movie. Great action, good humor, beautiful looking. Way better that Passion.
>>70638725
Wes Anderson
>>70641550
Tree of life was a masterpiece
Knight of cup not so good though
But can we really say it was bad ? He just went knee deep into his own style.
>>70638936
Mission Impossible 2 was shit .
>>70641800
I was going to post this as well, I like all his films (which are incredibly diverse) and his episodes of BB, and his attachment to episode VIII gives me (a new) hope for Star Wars.

Shit I completely forgot about that. I'd like it more if the non-fight-scene parts were handled and written better. It's an imaginative movie with a lot of poor decisions.

Go to bed Stephen. The film is an absolute masterpiece, your book is a piece of shit.
>>70644386
>But can we really say it was bad ?
I literally said that I didn't know if I could call it bad.
Tree of life was not a masterpiece. The New Land was a masterpiece. Badlands was a masterpiece. ToL was not.

Wes Anderson. This isn't bait.
I know Kubrick is considered pretentious by many, but has he actually made a bad movie in his whole life?
>>70646168
His first, Fear and Desire, was so bad Kubrick himself bought as many of the copies he could so he could destroy them.
>>70645963
Burn After Reading is really bad.

Only because all of his movies were worse than bad
>>70639025
Well he only directed Le Mans, right?
Good film
>>70641550
How can you say that? Tree of Life is so far above and beyond his other films. It's easily his best.
>>70640211
We have a winner here
>>70640441
Never seen anything of his before 2001 have you? Spartacus and his first few films suck (The Killing rules though).
>>70638802
>>70639025
Probably this yeah
>>70640420
He made so much, there's bound to be some stinkers in there right?
>>70648660
Spartacus wasn't that bad.
Dr. Strangelove is one of the best comedies of all time.
Liked both far more than EWS and 2001.
>>70648469
Spartacus is horrible. Lolita is ok.
Jean Vigo. I win.
>>70648902
Spartacus is absolute garbage. You have three actors giving stunning performances, which is a good thing, then you have a mess of a script, completely lacking in any form of subtlety, forced and lazy political "ideas" without any form of backdrop and forethought, a director who is clearly disinterested in the movie, scenes shot by other directors which are ridiculously different in regards to tone and scope. It's garbage. Dalton Trumbo a shit.
>>70649205
>"Although uncredited, he is also responsible for directing the first hour of Spartacus. Due to differences with the film’s star/producer, Kirk Douglas, he was replaced with Stanley Kubrick. Dan Sallitt of the LA Reader writes the following about the film: "Reports and interviews suggest, and stylistic analysis confirms, that the first hour of this 1960 epic about the Roman slave revolt was almost entirely directed by Anthony Mann, though Stanley Kubrick receives sole directorial credit."
Should have let the master finish would he started. Would have been a great film.
