 Re: WOKJ 100 best directors: The Countdown! Playing NOW! Verhoeven is a cool director (much cooler than the Wolfgang Petersons, Michael Bays and their respective wannabes surronding Hollywood). Showgirls=camp classic.

Paul Verhoeven - 21.5 points Liked Black Book, enjoyed Basic Instinct, but those and Total Recall combined are not top 100 worthy, not even to mention Showgirls should offset some. _________________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

Re: WOKJ 100 best directors: The Countdown! Playing NOW! Trixster, picking Michael Davis would not be better than your existing list. That said, it wouldn't be much worse.

Re: WOKJ 100 best directors: The Countdown! Playing NOW! Dear Paul is way too low. #2 would be great.
Which is exactly where he is on my ballot! What a coincidence!

Re: WOKJ 100 best directors: The Countdown! Playing NOW! Expected for Polanski, a big dog so to speak.
Though I don't get Chinatown.

Re: WOKJ 100 best directors: The Countdown! Playing NOW! For all his faults, Lucas beats alot of the shit we've been seeing here.
Not that he belongs on the list. He doesn't. But perspective is important.

Re: WOKJ 100 best directors: The Countdown! Playing NOW! It's not a bad choice. A New Hope is an all timer, American Graffiti and Sith are good too. Maybe not top 30, but eh.

But A New Hope was NOT a good directing job. Sorry, Lucas is great in many things, directing is not one of them though
