Ricard 2,245 Posted May 15, 2014 Share Posted May 15, 2014 http://crityrion.tumblr.com/post/85077003480/directors-insulting-each-otherSome of the quotes are hilarious. Here are two of my favorites:18. Tim Burton on Kevin Smith (after Smith jokingly accused Burton of stealing the ending of Planet of the Apes from a Smith comic book):“Anyone who knows me knows I would never read a comic book. And I would especially never read anything created by Kevin Smith.”19. Kevin Smith on Tim Burton (in response to “I would never read a comic book”):“Which, to me, explains fucking Batman.” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quintus 5,399 Posted May 15, 2014 Share Posted May 15, 2014 I like the one where he said he'd rather watch a good kung-fu movie instead. That was classy attack rather than the rest which were just crass. And I agree with Smith about Magnolia. I swapped my copy with a mate for his Fight Club.

Richard Penna 3,679 Posted May 15, 2014 Share Posted May 15, 2014 I somewhat agree with Gallo (who?) on Scorsese.With the possible exception of Hugo, his movies are all far too long (Goodfellas, for all its positives is a real chore to sit through, and requires an advanced degree in mob culture).

A24 4,330 Posted May 15, 2014 Share Posted May 15, 2014 If I was a famous director, I wouldn't make negative comments about my colleagues. Can you imagine Spielberg talk that way about other directors? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
publicist 4,643 Posted May 15, 2014 Share Posted May 15, 2014 It smacks of envy but on the other hand: it's entertaining.Though i have to say that the analytical 'qualities' of most of the comments are rather shining by their absence. I don't expect more from Vincent Gallo but Bergman and Rivette should know better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A24 4,330 Posted May 15, 2014 Share Posted May 15, 2014 Darabont went too far with The Green Mile but there's some good storytelling in it (especially during the first hour). But yes, he goes overboard towards the end. The Shawshank Redemption is a little more restrained. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
