Post by: Bobs_Hardware on August 11, 2002, 12:30:14 AM: It would have to be Speilberg. He has variety and imagination that can get across the lightheartedness of my life.

Post by: Samwise on August 11, 2002, 12:40:23 AM: I picked M. Night. He has a great style. Spielberg... well, he\'s great too. Perhaps a bit bloated, I dunno.

If I couldn\'t have M. Night, I\'d pick Ridley Scott.

Title: Choice of Directors
Post by: Animal Mother on August 11, 2002, 07:03:13 PM: I\'d have to pick David Lynch. Honestly, the directors prechosen for this poll suck. George Lucas is not a good director. He may be a good producer and editor, but he is a terrible director and writer. For god sakes, before Starwars episode I, he hadn\'t directed a movie in 22 years. With American Graffiti (crappy) THX-1138 (Crappy) Star Wars (good with terrible writing) and episodes 1 and 2, I would not put him up top with great directors.

basicly what you see in a movie on the screen is what the director saw in his head when he read the scriptso he has to figure out how to get his mental image onto film
theres so much more to it but thats about as simple as i can make it
