Directors we need to see more of

[redhawk23]

Duncan Jones- directer of Moon and son of David Bowie, from what I hear we actually will be seeing a lot more of him soon.

I'd love to see John Dahl make feature films again, he's been doing mostly television work, but i recently saw "You Kill Me" with Ben Kingsley and loved it. Walter Hill's another guy who needs a come back.
o and Barry Sonnenfeld too, if he can manage to recapture the magic of MIB and The Addams Family.

William Friedkin

 

[Figs]

Not sure if anyone already listed him but I want to see more work from Neill Blomkamp.

 

[Gunga Diner]

Joss Whedon. His sensibilities work fantastically on the big screen.

 

[Homer J. Fong]

I admit I haven't seen Serenity (or "Firefly" for that matter), but I would like to see Whedon do more film work too. I always thought "Dollhouse" would have worked better as a film - or maybe even film trilogy - than a television series.

 

[War Party]

I want to see Whedon do a X-Men film.

Richard Stanley- I thought Hardware had a cool look to it, and the same goes for Dust Devil.

Yeah, he's awesome. Shame about 'The Isalnd of Dr Maraue. He's working on a new film called 'Vacation', so it should be cool.

Is Vacation film yet? I remember reading about it on twitch, two maybe three years ago, when Bruce Campbell was attached as lead.

Peter Jackson

Neill Blomkamp

James Cameron needs to make movies more often than once a decade

 

[matrix_ghost]

Neill Blomkamp

To be honest i wouldn't list either of these two here. Simply because they have just made 1 movie. Let's see if their following movies are as good or better then their first features.
Too often you see directors making an powerful impact with their first features and subsequently lose it .

If you list guys like Cuaron or Paul Thomas Anderson then yes i can see why people would want to see more movies from them in the future. Jones & Blomkamp....not there yet IMO.

It should be filming this year in either Algeria or Morocco with Dean Cain attatched to play the lead.

 

[Sawyer]

I want to see Whedon do a X-Men film.

Abso-****in'-lutely. If Singer cant do First Class, I really want Fox to give Joss a go.

Damn right. He would be my next choice after Singer.

 

[-JKR-]

Mike Dougherty. Trick'r'Treat was great. Looking foward to whatever he's going to direct next. He's got the chops!

 

[Deaths Head II]

I would love to have Whedon do an X-Men film as well.

I forgot about him, but I totally agree. The whole time I was wondering if Spielberg directed it. He was really influnced by him with a lot of his camera moves. He should take over X-men for Singer.

 

[The Squirrel]

Neil Blomkamp. He was awesome before he did D9.

 

[Incrediblejeff]

I want to see Whedon do a X-Men film.

I always wanted to see him do the F4.

As for the director I'd love to see more of Spike Lee.Where is he?

 

[Space Moose]

John Carpenter anyone?

 

[Authorize]

Paul King. Bunny and the Bull was a fantastic comedy & had such stunning visuals. He's one of my choices for The Flash, but I doubt WB would have him do this.

 

[deathshead2]

John Carpenter anyone?

He does have "The Ward" filming now. And while I love Carpenter(The Thing is what got me into movies) his movies really haven't been the same since he entered the 90s.

Also it's really weird that a lot of directos who haven't made a movie in years are popping up agian. Like Joe Dante has the "Hole" in post right now.

Yeah, he said he hit a slump and didn't feel like directing. Fair enough. To be honest I enjoyed Escape From LA, but that's just me.

He is also supposed to direct a movie with Nic Cage called 'Riot' set during a prison riot. Sounds like old school Carpenter.
