CUARON !!!!

 

yes. Cuaron is brilliant, he should do more.

more good movies like y tu mama and children of men less bad movies like azkaban

 

I didn't see Azkaban, but agreed about the other two. I still don't know why people seem to bust a nut over Del Toro, Iñárritu, and Rodriguez, but give Cuaron less acclaim. I like Del Toro's taste - he likes some of the same artists and films I do - but as a filmmaker he's pretty hit or miss. Iñárritu is uninspired, and Rodriguez is good at what he does but doesn't aim very high. Cuaron is the only one where I feel "this guy has huge potential." Some of the shots in Children of Men were utterly brilliant.

I love Cuaron. The prisoner of azkaban was tolerable mostly thanks to the director, I really don't like Harry Potter, but that one was pretty fun, he won me over. Some of the scenes in the Children of Men are fucking genius. I can't wait to see what happens when somebody hands him a good script. So yeah, guy needs to make more movies, it's a shame he gets no work.

 

Edit: oh. he directed great expectations :facepalm:

Don't bother. I was really disappointed by it.

I like the original clash of the titans. Or stuff like clay . Stuff that takes work. CG is usually crap unless its like a cartoon.

It just seemed as if he had too many great ideas that they weren't able to create so the make-up ended up looking like crap and the story was fairly uninteresting. All in all, I don't think anyone should watch The Devil's Backbone after having watched Pan's Labyrinth. The other way around should work though.
