In my opinion Boogie Nights was an absolute masterpiece, that probably never will be appreciated properly due to it's subject matter.... but it's really the only masterpiece on that list (full disclaimer, I've never seen Punch Drunk Love or The Master).

There Will Be Blood may be a strong contender for the most overrated movie I've ever seen. I had to watch it in installments because it was so mediocre, couldn't even do one sit-thru.

So I'd say he's pretty hit and miss. Though Boogie Nights IS on my top 10 favorite movies list.

It takes more than a movie's artful direction to make it good.

I'd say the closest parallel I can draw to Anderson would be Richard Kelly, he made Donnie Darko and it was amazing and everyone had hugely high hopes for his career than a string of mediocre movies after.... In many artistic careers, sometimes lightning only strikes once.

>>720899803

>>720899838
Boogie Nights was good, been a while since i've seen it, might throw it on

If the standard test is percentage of great films from entire filmography the Tarantino is definitely one of the greatest.

Deathproof is, IMO, the only poor film on his resume (ignoring co-directs, features etc i.e. only counting full films), however, it was deliberately made to be a bad film, an ode to the exploitation flicks of the 70's.

John Carpenter made some amazing films such as Halloween (not a fan), Escape from New York, Assault on Precinct 13 and The Thing. However he also made Ghosts of Mars, Escape from LA and 5 or 6 other turds. So his "classic ratio" is much lower than QT.

Martin Scorcese and Steven Spielberg are pretty much in the same bracket of having never really made a bad film and mostly make classic ones.

QT is definitely up there, of course there is no accounting for individual tastes.

There are those that probably think George Lucas is a good director.

Stan "The Man" Kubrick

>>720898922
Martin Scorsese.

Though I must acknowlege Tarantino has a long list of movies that are extremely enjoyable to watch and unique. Though they are mainly intended to be fun and thrilling, and not some deep artistic achievement.

Scorsese has a great depth to his movies that will never be replicated; Goodfellas, Casino, and Gangs of NY (one of my favorite movies of all time).

But I will acknowlege that Scorsese is a master of his craft. It's like Tarantino is a great beer and Scorsese is a fine aged wine, Scorsese will always be better respected but he's doing something very different.... Tarantino is probably equally good in a different type of way, but not the way that usually wins awards.

>>720899046

>>720899922
I think Boogie Nights finest achievement is that it really time warps you back into the 70s and early 80s with fantastic montages (probably the best usage of them in any movie ever, Machine Gun commodores scene or the 99 Red Baloons finale) and great period clothing, the directing style even seems like a 70s movie.

That and I LOVE the characters. John C Reilly and the black cowboy (can't think of his name atm) are hilareous. Phillip Seymore Hoffman is a fantastic closet fag (and he's typecast so much as such I really wonder...), the depressed guy, roller girl, Burt Reynold's character..... I really love them all.

Such a good movie. I really fucking sympathize with how dirk diggler grew up too, the scenes with his mother seem all to familiar.

It's a fantastic blend of drama and comedy. I really love that movie. I think I'll watch it today too...

but everything else in that director's list is meh.

Everything Tarantino does is 'deliberately a bad film'. That's his thing. He makes exploitation movies with wit, dialogue and finesse. In my opinion the greatest director out there, but clearly some people don't agree. I'm fine with that, but you've missed something fundamental if you think Death Proof is the only movie he's done with this tone.

Can't. Not saying the guy is single handedly saving cinema, but he is the best. He knows how to tell and pace a story, he knows how to create interesting characters/arcs/situations. He knows how to draw out the best possible performances from his actors.

And he does all this, making it look totally effortless. Like it's easy. Like anyone could make a movie that takes place in a single room for 2 hours and have it be good.

I refer people to Django a lot. That movie is violent af. It literally has people getting shot in the dick, eaten by dogs etc. Yet beneath all that is an amazing, (even heartwarming) story about humanity, love and compassion. All in the same movie that has something getting shot in the dick a bunch of times. He throws that shit in there because he can and he loves grindhouse shit.

No one else could pull this off. And again, he makes it look easy. Which it most definitely is not. That is the indicator of film making genius. Not saying he is a genius, saying he is a FILM MAKING genius.

And he sticks to silly tropes too much, especially in his Star Trek films. I think he's better at tv producing, and he should have stuck there.

If you're saying Nolan isn't an artist, then you didn't understand The Prestige when you watched it. He has other great, artistic films, but The Prestige has so many intricacies working under the surface. It's a masterpiece.

Tarantino is obviously great, but he's a very entry level filmmaker for movie fans. He's the type of guy a 13 year old would say it the GOAT because they're first grown up movie was Pulp Fiction. He's a great director, but probably wouldn't even be in the top 20 of all time.

I don't wanna get argumentative or trolly, because I think you're just giving you're sincere side of things. But I disagree. Nolan is great.
Memento, The Prestige, Inception, Interstellar.
These are huge accomplishments in filmmaking that I don't think any other director could achieve, as much as I love many of the other names on this list. And there are high concepts in many of his films that aren't "easily accessible". So there is the surface layer that is spectacle that can attract many, but there are deeper layers that a true film lover can chew on. I don't think any apology is necessary for that top layer.

Nolan may be derided by film buffs but he's loved in the industry. It's rare to work with someone who's a real artist but who can ALSO make the movie billions of dollars with just his name

Even his worst movies made more than any other movie ever; James Cameron. Fuck y'all if you don't appreciate Terminator and Aliens.

>>720904209
He's on the list already like 5 times already

>>720903957
Yeah nah I disagree. And I stand by my entry level statement. I don't think much of what he has done should be considered an accomplishment. No Nolan movie has in anyway revolutionised the way we look at film and many other directors given the script and freedom Nolan has could have accomplished the same thing, if not better. Interstellar especially, really exposed Nolan as a filmmaker.
I also disagree with the idea that Nolan is a thinking mans director. Nolan is more of a thinking teenagers director. He's makes films for the lowest common denominator and by result they think they are more intelligent.

>No Nolan movie has in anyway revolutionised the way we look at film

Batman Begins redesigned the entire concept of what supehero movies are and acted as the starting gun to spawn countless other carefully made superhero movies from different studios making billions of dollars.

Before Batman Begins, superhero movies were glorified toy commercials, studios didn't give a crap about them

>>720904239
Nolan makes box office because studios have confidence in him, not because he's an 'artist'. Nolan is given freedom that other directors aren't. And it certainly isn't because he is some 'artist' that has changed the landscape of film. If his next movie bombs he'll be back to making indie films on a $20,000,000 budget.

>>720904239
Exactly. Thank you. You said what I was TRYING to say, but much more succinctly.

great movies, Enemy got a little too abstract for me but I see where he was going with it.
>inb4 retard

I don't mind abstract but I felt a little unfullfilled (pun intended maybe) after watching it, although I was very intriguing and got me thinking for a long time after it.

The rest of his shit so far is dope af.

>>720904429
No, it didn't. X-men and Spider-man were much more important to the Superhero genre.

>>720904522
Yeah Enemy is a you either love it or hate it film. I loved it, but I can understand why people didn't.

>>720899228
Yes

I don't care if people dislike things I like, but saying nolan is shit despite being objectively the opposite makes me angry

are you all retarded? - the answer is Stanley Kubrick. Tarantino is yet amateur comparatively.

This thread is really making me want to scream at somebody as if they'd just stolen fizzy lifting drinks

>>720904304
The only director in history who could have come near what he did with Interstellar is Kubrick. But Kubrick is dead. He died.
I think maybe you've read into some of Nolan's concepts incorrectly if "thinking teenager's director" is your analysis. Sorry to bring up The Prestige again, but it's the best example. You're definitely missing some stuff, man.

>>720904429
>Batman Begins redesigned the entire concept of what supehero movies are
It really wasn't.
Not only was it the most "comic-booky" movie in the series with it's cartoonish CGI Gotham and ridiculous plotline of ninja terrorists trying to poison Gotham's water because we're supposed to believe this city is the worst place on Earth, but super hero origin stories have been done to death.

>Before Batman Begins, superhero movies were glorified toy commercials

They still are you dingus. The Battank alone was a marketing gimmick that led to the sale of millions of clunky toys.

Are you old enough to remember the movie's release? The trailer alone was unlike anything seen before from a Batman movie. Relative to movies that came after, sure it may pale in comparison, but you can't deny it acted as inspiration for superhero movies with a brain. I'd argue there'd be no Robert Downey Jr as Iron Man if it hadn't been for Batman Begins.

Nope. Superhero movies don't have brains, that includes The Dark Knight trilogy. And I'm not some pretentious film snob who hates capeshit, I love comic book movies. But don't sit on your high horse claiming superhero movies ever had any degree of intelligence.

>>720905182
>Superhero movies don't have brains

That's WAY too broad a statement.
The Dark Knight trilogy alone does prove that superhero movies can have depth. And there are many others.

The Dark Knight may have depth (bit of stretch), the other two certainly do not. Just because TDKT was presented in a way not seen in the genre before doesn't automatically make them intelligent, thought-provoking films. I fucking love The Dark Knight and it's one of my favourite movies but it really isn't what I would call thought-provoking.

I realize I'm in the minority but I can't stand Tarantino. He's one of the only directors whose movies I actively avoid (I can't even think of any others except perhaps Shyamalan). I've never even seen the end of Pulp Fiction or Deathproof because I stopped watching partway through.
