Spike Lee has my vote

Can someone post the list, my work is blocking the site.

Thx.

RustyK94 · 11-20-2008, 08:43 PM

The majority of Spike Lees films are all the same.

I agree wholeheartedly with M. Night, Kevin Smith, Wes Anderson, and Bryan Singer.

stockstar1138 · 11-20-2008, 08:47 PM

Spike Lee should have been on that list.

Disagree with Tarintino, Anderson, Spielberg, Burton and the Coppolas.

Watch Do The Right Thing then 25th Hour. Honestly there almost the same movie just with a diffrent plot.

rev.and.ride · 11-20-2008, 08:50 PM

Wes Anderson
Judd Apatow
Tim Burton
The Coppolas
George Lucas
M. Night Shymalan
Bryan Singer
Kevin Smith
Steven Spielberg
Quentin Tarantino

I actually agree with all of them except Wes Anderson and The Coppolas. How can someone who directed Apocalypse Now, The Conversation and The Godfather Trilogy be overrated? Those are all classics!

Wes Anderson movies are generally genius, although I was a little disappointed with Darjeeling. The first four were all brilliant.

I hope you realize how much that makes no sense.

lobo81865 · 11-20-2008, 08:55 PM

add Michael Moore at no. 1. Fat pompous, jerk.

xtop · 11-20-2008, 08:56 PM

M. Night Shymalan
Kevin Smith
Quentin Tarantino

all tied for 1st in my book. hard to get more overrated. shymalan sucks (more) now tho, so he's not really overrated anymore

And they don't include Scorsese who went from the most underrated director (No oscars) to one of the most overrated(one undeserved oscar) in just a few short years.

I can understand QT, Kevin Smith, M. Night, Singer, Anderson, and Burton(I mean he did make that Planet of the Apes remake) and even Lucas(died years ago, we just haven't figured it out yet), But Coppola and Spielberg? I never really had I high opinion of Apatow, but he makes good comedies, so I can't complain.

I actually agree with about half of that list.

xander · 11-20-2008, 08:58 PM

Thats a prototype of a list generated to breed controversy. Terrible.

I think he was being sarcastic.

Spike's ratings must be low.

M. Night Shymalan is the most overated i say. Tarantino i think has done enough great movies to make up for the couple of bad apples he has done.

Wes Anderson i think you ether love him or hate him. That's just his style of movie making. Why Burton or Spielberg are there i don't know

I think Riddley Scott and Ron Howard should have made the list. Overall this list kind of sucks.

Any way here's how the Sixth Sense should have been
