I am referring not to the list, but to Del Toro's career in relation to the list. It's just too soon! Yeah, he probably can't handle being this high on the prestigous KJ list. Now the success will go to his head and he becomes an alcoholic

Re: WOKJ 100 best directors: The Countdown! Playing NOW! Don't forget Music of the Heart!  I remember, post Scream 2, when Wes Craven talked about how he wanted to leave horror movies behind. How'd that work out for ya, pal?

Re: WOKJ 100 best directors: The Countdown! Playing NOW! Price wrote: 50. Cameron Crowe - 17 points Hasn't been a good run lately for the list.

Re: WOKJ 100 best directors: The Countdown! Playing NOW! 13 left out of my top 20 here.
I think only a handful of them will actually make it, though.

Re: WOKJ 100 best directors: The Countdown! Playing NOW! I've only had 2 of my top 20, and they were the two most obscure directors. I guess that means my list is pretty mainstream.  _________________Magic Mike wrote: zwackerm wrote: If John Wick 2 even makes 30 million I will eat 1,000 shoes. Same. Algren wrote: I don't think.
