What is your favorite film by..........

Simple. Answer what your favorite film by (director) is. Also, put in your least favorite by the same director. Also again, explain why you chose the film. This is sparked by random curiousity :)


Quentin Tarantino: Favorite- Death Proof (I love the dialogue and the flow, as well as the bar scene. The second half wins it of course because all the buildup and then that suspenseful, adrenaline rush finale. I know people don't like it, and some say it's his worst film, but this is my opinion and i'm sticking to it.

Least fave: Reservoir Dogs (Sorry, I think it's weak. It's a good film, but I honestly find it boring.)


Robert Rodriguez: Fave- Sin City (No contest. Simple.)

Least fave- (excluding sharkboy and lava girl and Spy Kids 2&3) I'd say El Mariachi. I didn't like it. He did a fantastic job for his pocket change budget but that doesn't make it good.



Peter Jackson: Fave- Dead Alive (One of the best zombie movies, nuff said)

Least- Lord of the fucking Rings (boring. Oh, and angra, stop hyperventilating!)


Danny Boyle: Fave- I have a slight preference to Sunshine, but just because of the amazing camera shots and plot all around, i'll say it's like .0001% above 28 Days Later.

Least fave- Trainspotting (Just wasn't that interesting)


Feel free to add one director when you participate, but still fill out these.

You didn't like El Mariachi? How about Desperado?
Reservoir Dogs is boring But you found Death Proof 's dialogue entertaining. Have you ever worked with women there dialogue is rarely entertaining.. though i have only seen it the one time in the theater so maybe i was getting tired after all the excitement of Planet Terror..... Death Proof was a good film but hardly his best, but that's my opinion. How do others here feel about it?
Well Tarantino..favorite.. I'd say Kill Bill vol1-2 and Pulp Fiction(safe one lol)
least ...Deathproof
Rodriguez.. Desperado
Least i haven't seen the kiddie movies but one of those will do.. you pick.
Also doesn't Sin City have 3 directors (Rodriguez, Tarantino, Miller) hence Rodriguez loosing his Directors Guild membership preventing him from being nominated and winning for academy awards same as Tarantino.

Don't think i have seen a lot from Boyle have to look them up but i did like 28days later and Trainspotting was ok too i will look some up and edit it is kind of late


Petter Jackson least i would say King Kong that was just a dump.


new added director... John Woo favorite A better Tomorrow II
least Paycheck

Good one Posher but it so hard to find films i didn't like from some of my other favorites so i went with Woo
