Michael Bay. His movies are big, dumb, and obvious ones of all.

Not ALL of the original fan base hates the new trilogy, just the vocal minority.

If you want, you could probably find the Original Trilogy on Laserdisk and you can hug those all you want while waving your fist into the air at George Lucas, but you should respect what Lucas has brought to the industry.

Why would anybody want to stick to Laserdisc?

I've always pronounced it "ooo-wah bowl".

Because those are the biggest collectors items presentation of the trilogy {and the original theatrical release as well}

I'm thinking that anyone who complains that much probably has them on the top of a shelf with the rest of their Star Wars collectibles, including but not limited to, a full wookie suit.

The trailer for Antichrist looks promising, but i'm gonna wait till i can see it at a movie theater or at home on DVD or bluray to make a judgement. I'm with Deckard here, no way can this one movie, even if it's as bad as they say it is (and i doubt it is), bring Von Trier down to the level of Boll in one fell swoop.

No. Rushmore, Royal Tennenbaums, & The Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou are enjoyable films.

I whole heartedly disagree; about Wes and Lars. I really enjoyed Dancer in the Dark (and not just because of Bjork), and have been entirely entertained by all of the Wes movies I have seen. Lars is an experimental film maker, and this is bound to result in hits and misses (for a given individual), but the fact that you feel his newest creation is a miss in no way justifies a worst director label IMO. Experimentalism is brave in this world, and a great way to avoid stagnation.

Thanks for the answers, guys. I guess we will never know! hehe

As for being the worst director... I guess he's pretty bad. I know he completely mangled Bloodrayne and the Dungeon Siege movie.

Now, I have absolutely no idea how hard it is to direct a movie. I know there are a ton of movie buffs and even some guys who work in the industry on this board. Maybe you guys can clear some things up for me.

Like I said, I think Bloodrayne was pretty horrible. Both of them. Now I see on IMDB that Uwe Boll did not write them. Given that the scripts were pretty crappy, were those movies doomed to begin with? Could getting a better director have saved them?

Don't forget Bottle Rocket. Pretty dang good for a first film. It might be his best even.

I haven't gotten around to seeing it yet.

Riff Magnum · 05-19-2009, 02:10 AM

Well, if you enjoyed his other movies, you're almost guaranteed to like Bottle Rocket. Owen Wilson is hilarious.

Rblu-Dblu · 05-19-2009, 02:17 AM

I honestly couldn't tell you who the world's worst director is because I would never sit through one of his/hers movies. I don't pay attention to who the director is in the beginning so I can't be biased while watching.

Quick statement.

If you look in the mirror and see this:

Something's wrong.

Guess, you like movies to all the sudden just jump all over the place and feel like they have no place with previous films. Its cool i remember the first time i watched paint dry.

Yes I kid you not. I know Ive taken some knocks here for my support of a few of Uwes films, but if you want to know whos 100% worse, look no further than the above link for Lars Von Triers "Antichrist". Pure fecal matter.

Check out the film if you dont believe me.

Personally, I thought the guy who directed "Brown Bunny" was the worst director in the world.

Breaking the Waves is one of the greatest films I've ever seen. I don't care if the man never directs a great film again in his life. He gave us Breaking the Waves. Giving the world one great film should be enough for us.

Don't worry about getting his name right till he makes a good movie.. You got a while
