Your Most Hated Director?...

[MiamiHeat]

if it was revisionist history itd be called a do entary.

Don't you mean if it wasn't revisionist history, it'd be a do entary?

directors cant have artistic license anymore? portraying a legend is more artistic than a fact. its a movie not a history class.

No, they can't have artistic license when he :

- markets a movie named "JFK" and it's about the assassination of JFK.

- markets a movie named "The Doors" and it's about the band

- markets a movie named "Alexander" and it's about the historical Alexander


in each of those movies, he went to the media claiming he had ACTUAL historians/first hand sources and that it's "accurate"

for instance, he claims the Doors is accurate, even though Morrison and others went to the media and were like WTF?

same thing for most of his bull

I think The Doors was as idiotic as anyone, but I'm pretty sure this assertion is necessarily false for obvious reasons.

Paul Thomas Anderson

I know a lot of people love his movies but I think they are slow and boring. I care a lot more about being entertained than watching great acting I guess that is just me.

yeah, Jim Morrison's been dead for quite some time now, pal.

Who ever directed new moon.

Rob Cohen for making those piece of Fast and Furious bull movies.

M. Night Shyamalan

Damn, beat me to it. But I have read things about the rest of the band being unhappy with the film and the way Stone made Jim Morrison look. Apparantly, Patricia Kennealy was very unhappy with the portrayal of her.

Though I think Val Kilmer did a good job based on what he had to work with. But, as a whole, the movie was really bad in my opinion.

Really dude?

[peewee's lovechild]

I like how Morrison came back from the dead to blast Stone.

Schumacher.

Mother. er.

He raped Batman. Even The Joker never ed with Batman the way this did.

He probably still masturbates to Batman's nipples at home.

I tend to hate directors based on how short they fall of what they seem to be capable of, so based on this, I think Rob Zombie needs to hang it up. It's like he's a fan of horror movies without understanding what makes things scary. Does it really make Michael Meyers scarier to humanize him with a psychobabble account of his evil-ification? Isn't it scarier to keep him an incomprehensible mystery? And does his endless series of references to other films actually do anything but take audiences out of the drama at hand and remind them that they're just watching a movie (and a one at that)?

Yeah, I haven't heard anything about Ray Charles coming back from the dead to blast Jamie Foxx's performance. Guess Ray must have liked the movie.

Agreed. I liked House of 1000 Corpses and The Devils Rejects. Those were the last Rob Zombie movies I liked. Halloween and Friday The 13th blew hairy goat ass.

I heard that he jumped out of Foxx's closet and tried to force the butt sex on him but that he couldn't because he's still blind, even in death, and instead ed his belly button thinking that Foxx was the tightest virgin he'd ever had.

I don't like anything by Zombie, music or movies.

But, I was told that he did the animation for the bug-out desert scene in Beavis and Butthead Do America, so I'll give him props for that.

Hahaha, I just pictured him doing that screaming "She gives me money, when I'm in need!".

Hahaha.

Oliver Stone is an interesting case. He strikes me as a complete in person and I hate almost every film he's made (except U-Turn for some reason that even I can't comprehend) other than Natural Born Killers.

Despite that, I can't really put him on my list of hated directors because I usually think his work is interesting enough that I'll watch it at least once, and because Natural Born Killers is easily one of my favorite movies of the past couple decades. Only thing he's done that I don't think is crap, but it's a home run.

The Doors, for the record, was an absolutely horrible movie with an amazing performance at its core.

Platoon and Any Given Sunday make me forgive everything else.

I like Born on the 4th of July, Wall Street, Salvador, and JFK. But, I don't rave about them like many do.

[peewee's lovechild]

You gotta admit, he has produced some of the most unlikable antagonists in cinematic history.

[da_suns_fan]

Michael Bay.

[IronMexican]

yeah, Jim Morrison's been dead for quite some time now, pal.

That just might be MH's stupidest post on he site. That speaks volumes.

[slayermin]

His best film is The Hand .IMVHO

I saw that at a drive in. Good movie.

I was surprised to see that Schumacher directed Tigerland (during the credits, I didn't check while watching), because I kinda liked it. I don't really care for Colin either, but that movie was interesting if nothing else.
