Top 10 Overrated Directors

Kevin Smith seems to get mentioned a lot. I think he was just fine up through around Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back, along with Clerks II. Perhaps his style might seem a bit dated or not as funny as people grow older and vice versa; it's an interesting dynamic. He's perhaps more interesting now for stuff like podcasts and speaking events in general as he's a pretty interesting and funny dude. A lot of writers seem to be 'stuck in their own head' introverts, but Smith is kind of the bubbly and extroverted exception. The Silent Bob/Teller kind of character is sort of amusing in this respect given how verbose he is. Great storyteller.
