Well I have a few to add to the list, myself~

I'll definitely second Steven Spielberg, Neill Blomkamp, and Peter Jackson, and would like to add:
Zhang Yimou
Chen Kaige
...and I guess Ang Lee, because he's made some really great stuff in the past, even though he hasn't really impressed me with any of his more recent films.

Sketcherofstuff · Post by **Sketcherofstuff** » Mon Dec 14, 2009 3:35 pm

Oh yeah, I forgot Ang Lee. I do remember being disapointed with his version of the hulk though.

Stanley Kubrick. The End.

Sketcherofstuff · Post by **Sketcherofstuff** » Mon Dec 14, 2009 3:52 pm

GRRR!!!!!!!!!!
I forgot him too!
Ah, The Shining... good times...
(I've been fooling around with my avatar, and i keep noticing people responding to this post. To me this seems like a miracle!)

(I wish I knew how to add on to a post that i already submitted. Oh well)
I forgot (again)
MARTIN ROSEN
He wrote and directed a british animated master peice back in 1982. I highly recomend it. Actually, its on You Tube.

There's a button at the top left on your posts next to quote with "edit" on it.

Heh... uh thank you.

NO SERIOUSLY. LOOK UP PLAGUE DOGS ON YOUTUBE NOW
I have a feeling that i'm going to make a lot of enemies recomending this film.
(While it is rated PG-13 for violent images and thematic content, this movie is right up there with Family Guy and South Park on the animated blood-o-meter.

Watching it now~

I wasn't even thinking about animated films >_>
Hayao Miyazaki must be on this list!

Ebly · Post by **Ebly** » Mon Dec 14, 2009 7:40 pm

in all honesty
and i'm sorry for this
but i have to say
Quentin Tarantino.

Sketcherofstuff · Post by **Sketcherofstuff** » Mon Dec 14, 2009 7:43 pm

I've never seen a QT film. I'm vaguely interested in seeing resivoir dogs, but Inglourius basterds just looked awful... Actually, i'll add him. I think that this will now be just one long list of every one's favorites

Missingo- check the list! You liking Plague dogs so far? (i don't blame you if you get bored to death by part 4)

Ebly · Post by **Ebly** » Mon Dec 14, 2009 7:54 pm

I haven't seen his latest, but Reservoir Dogs was interesting, and needless to say I enjoyed Pulp Fiction. And even if it's silly, the Kill Bill series is pretty good. There's a lot more for me to watch yet, but Jackie Brown was also pretty good, in a strange way...

Hm. you know, i'm interested to see if Rick responds to this. Wonder who his favorite directer is...

"Gotta add slippy now"

That's just adorable. xD

Sketcherofstuff · Post by **Sketcherofstuff** » Mon Dec 14, 2009 10:08 pm

yay! I'm adorable!
Actually, my friends won't stop bugging me about the fact that i came up with the phrase "so f@#$ing adorable" during some random conversation

Like i said some where else, i have a cursing habit (which i'm ashamed of)

Eh, fine. Wes Craven, guys. Where's your sense of horror.

Sketcherofstuff · Post by **Sketcherofstuff** » Tue Dec 15, 2009 8:26 pm

Wes Craven it is then

Still haven't heard any word back about Plague Dogs...

Gmod Idiot Box.

FTW. Seriously.

Despite the fact I work in movie theater, I do not have any favorite directors. As far as most movies/games/music goes, I care more about the final product than those behind it. Unless, of course, they're very well done individual or small group projects. 'Cause then the creators really stand out.

Das what?
never heard of him...

i'll add him to the list, but if i'm being a niaeve idiot, please inform me.

Ebly · Post by **Ebly** » Tue Dec 15, 2009 8:35 pm

One of the people out there with too much time that make 'films' with gmod which basically lets you screw around in half life 2's physics engine

...NOT REAL FILMS WHETHER YOU WANT TO ADMIT IT OR NOT, SLIPPY

Sketcherofstuff · Post by **Sketcherofstuff** » Tue Dec 15, 2009 8:37 pm

Well, i'll leave him up there.
COOL! SUDDEN INFLUX OF PEOPLE ON HERE
I guess this is around the time that every one posts here

Slippery-Q · Post by **Slippery-Q** » Tue Dec 15, 2009 8:43 pm

Did you guys hear something? I can it was the sound of NOBODY CARING ABOUT WHAT EBLY THINKS ABOUT MY CRAPPY GMOD MOVIES. And no, DasBoschitt makes GMOD movies, and he's really funny.

Sketcherofstuff · Post by **Sketcherofstuff** » Tue Dec 15, 2009 8:45 pm

I think an arguement is forming. While i'd love to pick sides, i think i'm gunna stay nuetral on this one

Plague dogs?
i have afeeling that if i keep asking that question, someone'll snap and kick me in the face...

First name basis. That exact phrase came to my mind when i read that.

Blegh, Will Ferrell. The guy, and all of his movies (other than Elf) drive me crazy. Kinda random, though.

Ebly · Post by **Ebly** » Tue Dec 15, 2009 10:53 pm

Glck. I'm the type who will never write off a movie. I need to see it to believe it.

Will Ferrell I have learned to make an exception for.
And I'm sorry, but Adam Sandler.
Yuck.

Slippery-Q · Post by **Slippery-Q** » Tue Dec 15, 2009 11:19 pm

I think Adam Sandler and Will Ferrell are both hilarious. I don't like Ashton Kutcher or however you spell his last name. He was only cool on That 70's Show.
