[quote=SpectralJulianIsNotDead]
I included M. Night Shyamalan because he seems to be like the new Spielberg or something.

M Night Shamalamadingdong fucking sucks. I saw Signs and was bored to tears!! It's a fucking horror mivie that isn't scary!!!??? What the fuck? I would have demanded my money back but it was rented and I didn't even pay for it. Still, I felt like someone owed me some goddamn money for enduring two hours of self-indulgent drivel!!!!!

And The Village was horrendous!!!! One of the lamest movies I have ever seen.

Unbreakable was ok. But only ok. Nothing spectacular.

Looks very pretty. Mountains all around and it's very green.
Nice hiking areas and outdoor sport. I like that steam train trip.
The Cumberland Theatre would be a great venue for the youth, don't ya think? Ha! Imagine...

Kurosawa is not a filmmaker of OUR generation. And I wouldn't even say Kubrick was a filmmaker of the current generation. We didn't grow up on those directors. They are fantastic but they aren't really from our generation, like the others on that list.
