MoFo Battle Royale Directors Edition, Round 1: Ridley Scott vs. Danny Boyle

Ridley Scott


Danny Boyle

Scott is great, but Boyle is incredible beyond belief.

Both directors have made great films, but neither one have I really taken a core interest in. I'll go with Boyle because he is more experimental.

Suspect's Reviews

Ridley Scott.

Tough call - apart from Alien and Blade Runner, Scott's never really done much for me. Boyle, on the other hand, is much more consistently impressive although he's never really done anything quite on par with the two Scott films I've mentioned. I'll come back to this one.

Come on this is a no brainer; Boyle is way overrated in my opinion.

Ridley Scott.

Ridley Scott. Gladiator, Alien and Bladerunner are just too good

Alien and Blade Runner. Who could ask for anything more?

I love Boyle's stuff, but he is not on the same level as Scott.

Scott, because Blade Runner beats anything Boyle has ever done.

In Switzerland they had brotherly love - they had 500 years of democracy and peace, and what did that produce? The cuckoo clock."

And Alien and The Duellists beat Blade Runner.

Sure they do.

Alien definitely beats Blade Runner (Xenomorphs yuuuuuuuuumhdflkajhlkhkjhljh).

Sure it does.

I think this is the first time we've agreed with each other on these threads >.>

Winner: Ridley Scott.
