Unlike things like directors, writers, actors, composers, even cinematographers, I never pay much attention to producers. The reason for that is unlike all the other professions I mentioned, I can't figure out if they have any distinct styles.
I mean, sure... on rare occasions I can tell that someone like Spielberg has influence when he's a producer. And although Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles was directed by Jonathan Liebesman, the trailer felt 100% like a Michael Bay movie, probably due to him being an influential producer on it.
But even in those cases, this is most likely due to them having experience in directing, so they probably have quite a bit of say in what kind of tone a movie will have. When it comes to those who work as producers only, are there some who have any distinguished characteristics?
