    Just curious. We always do a "favorite movie" type thread so I thought why not a Director thread...

    Please add anyone else I forgot.

    From the list above I've gotta go with either Kurosawa or Kubrick.

    I love all the Star Wars, ET, and Indiana Jones, Godfather, it's awesome stuff. But True Romance, Reseviour Dogs, and Pulp Fiction, that's the shit.

    George Lucas may have created a pop culture phenomenon with Star Wars, but as a director he's average. If you want to see the movie that Lucas ripped Star Wars off of, watch Kurosawa's Hidden Fortress.

    Maybe, but Kurosawa didn't digitally film his pictures the majority of the time, like Lucas is doing now. Gotta have some serious abstract mojo for that.

    No doubt those movies were great and groundbreaking, but I'm wondering what's more groundbreaking, the writing or the directing. Granted it's the same guy, but I think he should be herralded for his writing and concepts more than the actual directing.
