As for the director vs. actor...by far the director. In most cases, directors seem to be more intelligent than actors in choosing films. It's like bands, I suppose. How many CD's do you by sight unseen? Very few anymore. Movies are a little better...
I will go to any movie, sight unseen...
Hello,
I guess I am in Polls now:D
Jim Cameron:
Titanic
The Abyss
Aliens
Terminator
Terminator 2
David Fincher:
Fight Club
Se7en (they are really tied)
He's only done 4 films and I like The Game more than Alien3, but I think that Alien3 was better directed. I am eagerly awaiting...
