When the Sopranos was on, especially during the first dew years, I agreed with people who felt it was better than most movies.
Thing is, episodes had different directors.
There are still a few directors I admire, but I think there are a lot of factors involved in a flick other than the director that make that flick good or bad.
Also, is "good directing" really all that important? I mean, is Woody Allen a good director? Of course. He's been doing it over 40 years, so he'd better know a thing or two. He knows where to put the camera, move people around the frame, etc.
But if his script sucks, who cares?
