Paul Greengrass should go on the list. Despite critical acclaim, I think his direction has ruined the Bourne franchise.
Lots of explosions doesn't mean great action. Michael Bay is a godawful action sequence director.
Michael Mann, on the other hand, is great at directing action scenes. But overall I don't know if he's all that great of a director.
Come on Transformers and Bad Boys were pretty decent. Okay okay Bad Boys was decent but Transformers turned out to be a pretty good movie.
transformers was shiny.
I didn't hate Transformers as much as I expected to, but I definitely had issues with the direction. Motion and explosions and shiny things are to be expected in an action flick, but I don't like when they come at the expense of being able to actually follow what's happening on the screen.
Transformers had a few parts that were actually funny in a good way, but mostly that movie was unintentional comedy gold.
The best part is still that they had the computer genius chick, but she's really hot, so to make her seem smarter they gave her a foreign accent.
A while back my son asked what "masturbation" meant.
I asked him where he heard that, and he said "Transformers". Haven't seen it myself.
I don't completely understand what you're saying. You think it was too much action? Where was it hard to follow?
There were entire sections of that film that are filled with unspecified hunks of metal hitting other unspecified hunks of metal with little to no discernible difference between the hunks of metal. In general, I like the camera pulled back during action sequences, rather than up close and shaking/moving all over the place. Give me a wide shot and let things unfold.
I got ya. Good point. The shaky camera I suppose is used to accentuate the pace being fast or intense. I'm not a fan either.
I think the wide shots are why I love Woody Allen so much.
Oliver Stone. Born on the Fourth of July was maybe the worst war movie I have ever seen, and he won best director for it. As for Michael Bay, he sucks, but how can anyone call him overrated? I don't know a single person in this world who has a high opinion of him.
You're a if you don't like The Rock or Armageddon. That is all.
You seriously make the stupidest posts in every forum on this board, virgin. You're a cause you don't like pussy. Armageddon was crap BTW.
So people are s if they are waiting to have sex until marriage because of their religious beliefs? Are priests and nuns s because they take a vow of celibacy? Anyways, Armageddon is a great action movie. The Rock is too.
Not liking pussy is a much greater sign of being a then not liking a ty movie starring a chick who looks like Steven Tyler minus the heroin.
Lots of priests are.
I think Stone is wildly inconsistent. For every gem like Platoon or Nixon there is a stinkbomb like BotFoJ or JFK. I will always give him props for being able to recognize the dramatic potential of Rodney Dangerfield though.
Did anybody see Stone's "W"? Is that what it was called? Any good?
what about yalls thoughts on Rob Cohen? i personally think the guy is a genius
Stone's direction for Thandie Newton's portrayal of Condi Rice seems to have been for her to hang out at state fairs and study the chickens that play tic-tac-toe.
