 Re: WOKJ 100 best directors: The Countdown! Playing NOW! Levy wrote: Price wrote: 37. Alfonso Cuaron - 20.5 points It's incredible how quickly people anoint directors. Almost half of the people in this list haven't shown they're here to stay I agree with Levy. Although I do really love The Usual Suspects, the other work from Singer I just find OK at best. He has to do much more . _________________

Re: WOKJ 100 best directors: The Countdown! Playing NOW! Who directed Shoot em up? He's probably top 5 material the way this list is progressing

Re: WOKJ 100 best directors: The Countdown! Playing NOW! Price wrote: 34. John Ford - 21 points Should have been much higher, but of course, he never used CGI special effects or had things blown up. Some of his movies were even in black and white! Who wants to see that these days? _________________Buy my books! http://michaelaventrella.com

Re: WOKJ 100 best directors: The Countdown! Playing NOW! Price wrote: 35. John Woo - 21 points I'm actually happy with his inclusion, although certainly not with the ranking, but that's because his Hong Kong films are worthy of top 100. Still a 'Huh?" when saw the name since I never expected him to be this high at KJ. _________________Recent watched movies: American Hustle - B+ Inside Llewyn Davis - B Before Midnight - A 12 Years a Slave - A- The Hunger Games: Catching Fire - A- My thoughts on box office
