Merged: The Movies Thread

[CRedskinsRule]

for the record, I will now use a 13 star review system out of respect for the original US flag.

since I have only seen one movie this year, and wanting to leave room for others, I give Star Trek 2 an 11 star rating (Delaware and Maryland abstained)

^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.

Directors: David Fincher, Wes Anderson, Paul Anderson, Guy Ritchie, Spielberg

^ Finchers a good one. Seven was a great flick as was social network. He also did fight club which is widely considered a great movie. I thought it was ok.

Lee Unkrich. Finding Nemo and Monsters, Inc. (co-director but still counts), and Toy Story 3 (which he directed by himself). Those movies are good no matter how old, smart, or anything else you are.

Silver Linings for me was all the about the message and superior acting. Lawrence shows why she is going to become the best actress on the planet shortly. De Niro is the De Niro of old and steals scenes from Cooper the entire movie.

Flight was good! I need a good movie tonight to take my mind off life. Thanks for the recommendation.

Gone baby gone was really good

Gone baby gone is flat out great.

Argo to me was good, but a little over rated. Really like The Town, Renner is excellent in that.
