No bullshit. This is the definitive thread we'll all look back on.

what
then why do you have a different guy in your pic

William Freakin, purely because of the excorcist.

Uwe Boll

...

Wojciech Has, runner up is Teinsosuke Kinugasa.

Denis Villeneuve.

Yes. Already.

Right now? Nolan.
In 10 years? Villeneuve.

Bump

Scorsese absolutely

...

David Lean. If you had to make a "desert-island" pick, you could just keep re-watching his films for the rest of your life and you really wouldn't be missing anything

Sir Alfred Hitchcock

lynch

Stanley Kubrick
Alfred Hitchcock
Martin Scorsese
Akira Kurisawa

>William Freakin, purely because of the excorcist
>not for Sorcerer or the French Connection
Normies please leave.

>William Freakin

>not Cruising, Bug or To Live and Die in LA
Normies please leave

obviously

Cocteau

>Pretentious photo
Dropped

Tarkovsky or Kurosawa.

Which one?

Orson Welles was much better than Griffith ever was. Griffith was nothing but a mere joke who contrarians like to clinge on, because normies aren't as familiar with him and he was shunned at large by Hollywood at the time for being a pretentious fuck with racial tendencies.

>but muh techniques blah blah
eat shit, he contributed nothing that wasn't already there and wasn't improved upon by more competent directors.

>Right now? Nolan.
Ville is much better than Nolan and always was. Nolan wasn't as good as people made him out to be and his output grew worse and worse, as people started to praise him as a genius.

holy shit this thread

Bergman
Malick
Kiarostami
Godard

I like Kurosawa
Coppola

Other than Bergman, your picks are two hit wonders and you mock others? Pathetic. Watch Griffith, philistine.

>Coppola
ignore that bit I definitely don't think he's the best

HAHAAHAHAHAHA
watch more films

>malick
>godard
>two hit wonders
kek, i bet youve only seen birth and intolerance from griffith

based pusyposter

I've seen every work of the genius you're not worthy pronouncing, but Malick and Godard are still jokes.

Hitchcock
Orson Welles
Billy Wilder

Kurosawa, Ozu, Kobayashi, Kubrick, Tarkovski

I'm 100% convinced its Kubrick

Never used to until I found out his IQ was fucking 200, literally the same as Da Vinci and Issac Newton

I'm pretty sure even to this day that we don't truly "get" his films

>Orson Welles was much better than Griffith ever was

No you haven't, how does Sorrows of Satan end?

>genreshit

You know I can just look up the plot summary.

At that point Welles was a delusional fuck who didn't care about anything, let alone his reputation. He vouched for a man he knew had nothing of worth to provided. If you actually seen Griffith's work, you wouldn't fall for vapid memes spawned by reddit's circlejerk.

In detail, obviously.
Fucking retard.

he's back again.

I gave you a chance and you were like every other fool.

I hate you so much

>He vouched for a man he knew had nothing of worth to provided
Whoops!

WAHHHHHHHHHHHHHH GRIFFIN SUXXXXXXXXXXXXX!!!! HE'S TOO SMART FOR ME HE MAKES ME FEEL DUMB!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! HE'S TOO BORING!!!!!!!!!!

You know, every Griffith poster knows he's garbage and are doing, just in spite of every other sane person outside of their discord circlejerk. Have you even taken a look at people memeing about Griffith? Hilarious bunch.

Like Clockwork, you spew your half baked memes and giggle as (You)'s come one by one, giving your miserable existence some happiness that will perish faster than your ex.

fpbp

WAHHHHHHHHH GRIFFIN SUXXXXXXXXXX!!!!! HE'S TOO CHALLENGING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! MOVIES SHOULD BE DUMB SO I DON'T HAVE TO USE MY BRAIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Tarantino > Griffith
Prove me wrong

where's rooney

Again, proving my point Griffith "fans" are nothing but worthless attention seeking whores.

why did you save that

No, there are no fans of Griffith. That's akin to saying you're a fan of life or a fan of God.

Salman Rushdie?

I miss her!

Ozu
Antonioni
Bresson

you literally can't prove me wrong

FATWA

More like, that's akin to saying you're a fan of what comes from your asshole.

I, too, lurk r/truefilms

>Bresson
Oops!

Imagine being this dumb

>Antonioni
Oops!

Probably Spacey

Probably Spacey

>Ozu
Oops!

Megaautist, do you like anything besides Griffith?

Probably Spicey

...

I don't know how that feels like, you tell me.

Honestly in my opinion no one understands how to use film better than David Lynch.
Other directors may make movies that are better and certainly more enjoyable, but Lynch just has a fucking gift with knowing exactly how to use images and sound to make you feel what he wants you to feel. Never seen anyone else that could hypnotize me like Lynch can.

I refrain from answering that question, but I'll answer OP's

...

I like it up the ass.

>Lynch just has a fucking gift with knowing exactly how to use images and sound to make you feel what he wants you to feel.
>make you feel
>make you feel
>MAKE you feel
This is why film will never be art

Evidence: youtube.com/watch?v=qZowK0NAvig

Hitchcock manipulated the audience perfectly in Rear Window.

Probably Spaceman

Lynch is a better comedian than filmmaker

Agreed, I gotta say David Lynch is the one that first made me understand what a director actually does.

>manipulate the audience
>just turn your brain off and enjoy the ride!
This is why film will never be art

You don't know as much about aesthetics as you think you do.
Someday you will look back on this and cringe.

...

>just give me pretty colors!
>just swing the camera!
This is why film will never be art.

If there's anything Lynch is known for it's eliminating ambiguity.

>Just spell everything out for me!
>Just coddle me!
>Just entertain me!

coppola

I seriously fucking hate the Griffith poster

I know what you mean. That's why we need to rally together guys and downvote Griffith! DOWNVOTE GRIFFITH!

did you just say capocollo?

WAHHHHHHHHH GRIFFIN SUXXXXXXXXXX!!!!! HE'S TOO CHALLENGING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! MOVIES SHOULD BE DUMB SO I DON'T HAVE TO USE MY BRAIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!

what the fuck did you just say?

Scorsese is a hack.
Amazing directors.
Either trolls or retarded.

...

Tarkovsky, and this is not even up for debate.

Great acting there pal.
