Who's the Better Director?

[Homer J. Fong]

Donner, for Superman I and most of II, Lethal Weapon, and Scrooged.

 

[Rukus]

John McTiernan

 

[Peyton Westlake]

So far it looks like McTiernan 5 & Donner 4. anyone else wanna weigh in?

 

[Bim]

Richard Donner

 

[Peyton Westlake]

All knotted up at 5 now.

 

[Mrs. Sawyer]

Donner, because as much as I love Die Hard (especially around Christmas), I love Lethal Weapon a lot more.

 

[Peyton Westlake]

Donner takes the lead over McTiernan, 6-5.

Donner, because of The Omen, his best film. Let's move on ?

F.W. Murnau vs Fritz Lang. Just kidding, someone chose another match.

ok.....trying to think of another match up which is worthy.

 

[Ash J. Williams]

Richard Donner

 

[Peyton Westlake]

Next for me.....I know is a very odd pairing, but when I saw some films they made.......not that dissimilar. Here we go.

ALEX PROYAS ( the Crow, Dark City, I,Robot & Knowing) vs. PAUL VERHOEVEN ( RoboCop, Total Recall, Starship Troopers)

 

[MessiahDecoy123]

Verhoeven

 

[Mister H.]

Verhoeven

 

[gwynplaine]

Good one.
I have to go with Verhoeven, but I really like Proyas' movies too.

 

[nite-owl]

Paul Verhoeven.

 

[Peyton Westlake]

After much thought.....I want to say Proyas, even though I liked Verhoeven's movies more.

 

[bunk]

Verhoeven

 

[Peyton Westlake]

So far it seems Verhoeven is running away.

 

[gwynplaine]

Yeah, that was a good match. Maybe it's time to chose another one as good ?

 

[Dark Victory]

Verhoeven. Another director whose films made my childhood awesome.

 

[Mrs. Sawyer]

Verhoeven

 

[El Payaso]

Verhoeven.

 

[Peyton Westlake]

Ok.....since the last seemed a runaway my next contest would be...

WOLFGANG PETERSEN ( Das Boot, In the Line of Fire, Air Force One, Troy ) VS. TONY SCOTT (Top Gun, True Romance, Crimson Tide, Man on Fire )

 

[Figs]

That's a bit of a tough one but I'm going with Wolfgang Petersen.

 

[gwynplaine]

Petersen.
