Fincher is still great, you pleb.

He's got as good a track record as anybody.

>Fincher is still great, you pleb.
His last great film was Fight Club. Modern era Fincher sucks except for Gone Girl which was a fluke, anyone could have directed a story that good into a decent movie.

>implying Zodiac and The Social Network suck

...

I don't think this crop of "music video directors" are very good and don't have a lot of staying power in general. I'm talking about Spike Jonze, the Finchers, Michel Gondry, etc. The only one who seemed to rise above the trappings of the art form is PTA.

...

>a story that good
Fincher elevates trashy pulp into art. gone girl as a book is nothing

Gone Girl was not art it was a generic femme fatale thriller

...

>fincher
>stopped being able to make good films

OP turbo pleb mode

WRONG

...

This hack

OMG SLOW MOTION AND TRENT REZNOR AND BITCHES AND WHORES AND NEIL PATRICK HARRIS

What happened to him

we both know I'm right

i really dont like the look of modern fincher movies, must be the digital cameras or something

what do you mean? the majority of his output is borderline unwatchable. or did you actually enjoy Bonfire of the Vanities, Obsession, Raising Cain?

God De Palma is directing a new movie now

>Fincher
>stopped making good movies
um, the fuck? Gone Girl was a good thriller and he's still got it, what the fuck are you on about, faggot?
>modern era Fincher sucks
>made Zodiac, arguably his best, and TSN
get some taste, fag.

Two I think. One has Jaimie Lannister and Guy Pearce.

This.

Prometheous was rather solid, but he should just stop, especially after he made that abomination that was the new Alien.

>PISS FILTERS = TENSION
Zodiac is a mess. There's maybe 40 minutes of good stuff in there. Everything involving RDJ's character is unwatchable.

Everything since Gladiator has been pure shit.

Never forget

...

>Kingdom of Heaven
>Matchstick Men
>The Counselor
>Body of Lies
"Pure shit"? I don't think so. Definitely spotty but there is some cognizant filmmaking left in him.

Why is it a mess? Why is everything regarding RDJ unwatchable in Zodiac?
Aslo, how's TSN bad? It's well written and directed and shows what a piece of shit Zucc really is.

Kingdom of Heaven > everything you like

Kingdom of Heaven was OK, I'll give you that. But there hasn't been anything memorable like Gladiator or Alien. Just movies that are "ok".

I dont know. I cant stand Orlando Bloom for some reason.

Only Lovers Left Alive was literally the worst fucking movie I've ever seen. I could go on a 5 post-long rant about how much I fucking hate that film.

And Paterson was just meh. It needed that special something to make it good despite being deliberately boring and it just wasn't there.

If the next film isn't good then I say Jarmush is done.

...

>The Counselor
>Body of Lies
The Counselor is an indefensible piece of shit, and and Body of Lies was mediocre at best. American Gangster and Black Hawk Down were after Gladiator, those would have been far better movies to bring up.

>implying The Social Network sucks

He looks like one of the Bogdanoff brothers

The social network is his second best prove me wrong

you're wrong op
he's never made a single good film

...

>Obsession
It's not good at all but I actually like that one.

Fincher's music videos were cinematic and contemplative, though. He didn't use that many "gimmicks;" he pretty much shot them like short films. A lot of them move fairly slowly for music videos.

>The Counselor is an indefensible piece of shit
ok pleb

don't know what your point is really. the movie is incredible.

Don't have one, just wanted to post that since it's funny

Rob Reiner and Robert Zemeckis

They're George Lucas-tier of 'washed up old farts'.

he's just so arrogant and senile

imagine the yes men he must be surrounded by

what an absolute hack

Watch all of those
