[Wedge A.]

Spielberg.

He's not a jerk on set, takes more risks, and his best films are better than Cameron's. I like them both, though.

 

[BloodyWolverine]

Spielberg for Indiana Jones films alone.

 

[Figs]

Spielberg

 

[The Chairman]

Spielberg by miles.

 

[Rukus]

Spielberg

 

[Eagle_23]

Easily Spielberg, no question about it.

 

[El Payaso]

Cameron!

Spielberg is great but too often does he make movies with stupid children in them. And he seems to think the more ******ed the child behaves the more adorable and natural he/she is.

 

[bunk]

Spielberg would win an entire tournament. It's better just to leave him out and give others a chance to play.

 

[War Party]

I will have to vote for Spielberg.

 

[Max J Power]

Both are great and have proven that films made primarily for entertainment can have strong artistic quality, but I'm going to have to go with Spielberg as the better one.

 

[deathshead2]

Spielberg for sure.
Made and produced great movies, and had a huge hand in making WB animation great again.


Cameron is cool and all, but True Lies annoys me so much more than even Spielbergs worst.

 

[ford_jj]

Steven Spielberg

 

[NightBeetle]

I'm going for Spielberg

 

[ChickenScratch]

Spielberg, not only has he a high batting average, but he's touched pretty much every genre and has provided a game changer film. From sci-fi, to horror to adventure to drama, to spy/thriller and wherever else he's made his mark and many of his films stand above most guys specifically known for that genre.

 

[CBGB]

Spielberg definately. I like James Cameron a lot, but when you compare their most famous films, there's no contest.

Spielberg: Jaws, Close Encounters, Indiana Jones trilogy, Saving Private Ryan, Jurassic Park, Hook, AI, ET.

Cameron: Aliens, T2, Titanic, True Lies, the Abyss.

But to Camerons defense though, Spielberg has a much larger resume.

 

[AVEITWITHJAMON]

I think Spielberg has made a lot more poor films than James Cameron has, its hard to compare them though as Cameron has made so few movies compared to Spielberg. I personally think no Spielberg movie is as good as Aliens, The Terminator and T2:Judgement Day respectively.

 

[SPIDERMAN117]

Alrighty then Spielberg it is

I'll throw in a good one


Alfred Hitchcock

or

Stanley Kubrick

 

[CBGB]

I love them both, but Kubrick is my favourite director of all time. I never get tired of Stanley's films. I could watch the Shining, 2001, Clockwork Orange, and Paths of Glory everyday for the rest of my life and never get tired of them.

 

[deathshead2]

While I don't like the birds and I hate the second half of Psycho(its just felt flat after the wonderful first half) I do love Rear Window.

Now Kubrick. I dig Dr.Stragelove, and I find the shining to be a wonderful comedy.


Hitchcock gets my vote. He just knew how to work it. While Kubrick was good, I don't think he was that good.

 

[Bruce Banner]

I love Rear Window, The Birds and Vertigo. So Hitchcock for me

 

[Dr Strange]

Stanley Kubrick

 

[nite-owl]

Kubrick.

 

[Eagle_23]

Kubrick

 

[El Payaso]

IMPOSSIBLE to decide.
