Worst Filmmakers of All Time

I don't think he is a bad filmmaker, but a director I personally don't tend to enjoy is David Koepp, I respect his writing a lot though.

Tyler Perry by a mile. It just gets no worse than ole TP.

I'm not exaggerating at all when I say a 13 year old could probably write a more intelligent script than Perry. The dude has literally NO CLUE about anything regarding movie making. Can't write, can't direct, can't shoot.... God awful.

These threads are so funny. Cynthia thatgif is gold.

Did you see "Taste of Cherry" -- it's a great movie.

Sofia Coppola - I don't know what the **** happened, but how the hell do you go from something beautiful and meaningful like Virgin Suicides to complete sucky bores like Marie Antoinette, Somewhere and The Bling Ring??? I kept getting so annoyed by all her substanceless lingering shots and the repetitive blandness she insists on going with for "some artistic value" or crap.

Charles Grosvenor - This guy has NO IDEA how to make a competent animated movie. Taking a look at his Land Before Time sequels should be enough, which look visually awful and makes you sick with all the ugly close-ups of someone's mug. Of course the writing is the issue with most of them, but he manages to make them even worse with his poor directorial flair.

Noah Baumbach - If Greenberg and Margot At The Wedding are enough to go by, this guy seems to have a knack for creating a whole cast of characters who are unlikable and horrible against each other with little to absolutely no redeeming qualities. Slap on a dull blue-grey filter and call it deep. **** you, I was so frustrated with Margot I wanted to scream and throw the movie a punch in the face. You call that entertaining? "Black comedy", my ass.

Those are three of the biggest offenders I can think of right now.

Are you restricting this to Hollywood movies?

If so, then it has to be Michael freaking BAY!

As horrible as Bay is, he's Scorsese compared to Tyler Perry.

Not going to disagree. The better question might be "Why do you watch Tyler Perry's movies in the first place?"

I just don't know how Vincent Gallo went from "Buffalo '66" to "The Brown Bunny"... He didn't even show his 3rd movie outside of a film festival.

The same reason why people can't help but stop and stare at car wrecks.

Leni Riefenstahl is an easy pick for me. The amount of handwaving around her makes me a bit sad to be honest.

Also, Triumph of Will is terribly paced in parts.

I had the misfortune as a teenager to be dragged to a movie by
someone who thought I d be impressed by the French ineffectual intellectual- Rohmer. Claire s knee, a film that belongs in the Pretentious Poseur's Hall of Fame.

Introducing... Anggy umbara

Funny that was the one Rohmer film I was able to make it through

A friend of mine who is Iranian also recommended it me. I might try watching it.

Lol Well I suppose one can be glad one made it through that movie. Sorta like sitting in front of a crying kicking toddler on a trans-Atlantic flight. Or the flu. 😳
