Re: Directors You Hate

Chris Nolan. I really hate this guy. I'll hand it to him that The Dark Knight was awesome, but all his other films have been way too gimmicky (Memento) or pseudo-intellect (Inception) that I can hardly keep from screaming. Especially Inception. Fuck I hate Inception, and I hate it when some Michael Cera hipster is telling me it's easily the best movie in 20 years.

I could probably shit all over David Fincher any day of the week, but when it comes down to it I really enjoyed Se7en, The Social Network, and Fight Club. And kind of like Tarantino, I hate the way a lot of guys will see one of his films and instantly believe they're a character from that movie aka Tyler Durden.

Jean-Pierre Jeunet is another I can't stand. I absolutely loathe his scripts and his style over substance directing. Also, I hate it when people think I'm insane for not liking Amelie.

David Lynch. Other than Blue Velvet and While at Heart, everything I've seen by him has done nothing but piss me off and made me get into countless, pointless arguments over Eraserhead.
