I loved The Orphanage (which he may have just produced), but Pan's Labyrinth was an instant favorite, Hellboy far surpassed my expectations, and now I can't wait to see what he does with The Hobbit.

Cuaron made one of the most brilliant films I've ever seen (Children of Men) after making a fantastically dark interpretation of the best Harry Potter book. I didn't enjoy Y Tu Mama Tambien so much, but I can see why it garnered the acclaim it did. In any case, I'm stoked to see what he has up his sleeve (Mexico '68) in the coming years as well.

Mexican directors are taking over the world of film.

.... fish in a barrel my man, fish in a barrel. Getting a response like that out of you was as easy as I expected.

It's called sarcasm. Check into it.

on a side note, Pan's Labrynth was the shit. Haven't seen any of the others. I gotta be in the mood to read subtitles constantly.

Honorable mention to Charlie Kaufman, who's actually a screenwriter, but I feel that he should be credited more than the guys who actually made the corresponding movies.



I approve of this elegant, sophisticated and superior post

haha... it's not the mental energy, I just hate having my eyes miss the little nuances of what's happening while they are focused on the subtitles most of the time.

dear god no...lol. I won't watch a dubbed movie unless it's an old school Kung Fu flick.

If you liked Pan's Labyrinth, The Devil's Backbone will blow you away. I think it's a better film than Labyrinth, however both are excellent and shouldn't be overlooked

I never really pay attention to directors/writers, which I think is really weird. But I found out that I liked all of Danny Boyle's movies, so I guess him.

Oh and Mel Brooks fo sho.

Are you kidding me? Those movies were practically the same. On that note, I couldn't like DB having watched PL first.

As for those who cited Kevin Smith. Me? Well, I can't stand his flicks. I can't really seem to "appreciate" them. Whatever but, folks strokes for different for.
