Hmmm, I like this thread,

I'm a huge fan and respector of Quentin Tarantino (but I wouldn't say he makes MINDBLOWING films)

His dialogue was definately a setting stone for film's later on especially his "style".

But besides that, Spielberg and his Saving Private Ryan opening sequence was simply, How could you not feel like you were fighting along side their company @ Omaha?

I also like the efforts by Danny Boyle, who seems to direct again and again simply awesome films w/ a fantastic sense of characters, style and charm that I always go back too. His last film "28 Days Later" was simply a beautiful, dark, all together amazing film which I will always study again and again.

I dont know what you mean but "mindblowing" so ill just list my favorite directors.

Michel Gondry

Spike Jonze(If by mindblowing you mean intensely creative and colorful, this director and Michel Gondry are your best bets.)

Quentin Tarantino

David Fincher

Peter Jackson(I liked LOTR but im mainly refering to his earlier works, Meet the Feebles, Braindead)

Francis Coppola

Terry Gilliam

Darren Aronofsky

Wes Anderson

and of course

the one and only

(non US director)

(best ever)

TAKASHI MIIKE!!!!!!11!

Not really the best EVER but his movies are awesome.

IMHO Spielberg and McTiernan are the most overrated directors ever, Cameron also is, but Aliens was cool, and Singer's only good work was Usual Suspects.

      I'm not aware of this issue, but to help the other guys.  What version of Android are you using? Did you try a different browser? To see if Edge is the issue here.

      I agree when are you going to read this (really poor BTW) article? Here is a better article so you actually know what is going on and answers questions you had in other comments --> https://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2026/05/speed-boosting-low-latency-profile-is-one-of-the-improvements-coming-to-windows-11/ It is unclear if one will be able to disable the new profile at this point but I am not seeing any reason why one would.
    • Euro-Office must default to ODF to be considered "genuinely European", LibreOffice argues

      By Snake Doc · Posted

      I disagree; they come off very "bitchy" and "whiny". Make a great product and combine that with a great price (free) and people will come over to your side. Or build it and they will come as they say. Constantly trying to get attention by complaining all the time, will turn people off to your product.

      It use to be a nightmare, with LibreOffice supporting a newer draft ODF standard by default, and Microsoft Office supporting the older non-draft standard. Now that they both support the same version of ODF, they should be interoperable.
    • Brave Browser 1.91.171

      Brave Browser 1.91.171 by Razvan Serea Brave Browser is a lightning-fast, secure web browser that stands out from the competition with its focus on privacy, security, and speed. With features like HTTPS Everywhere and built-in tracker blocking, Brave keeps your online activities safe from prying eyes. Brave is one of the safest browsers on the market today. It blocks third-party data storage. It protects from browser fingerprinting. And it does all this by default. Speed - Brave is built on Chromium, the same technology that powers Google Chrome, and is optimized for speed, providing a fast and responsive browsing experience. Brave Browser also features Brave Rewards, a system that rewards users with Basic Attention Tokens (BAT) for viewing opt-in ads. This innovative system provides an alternative revenue model for content creators and a way to support the Brave community. SlimBrave Neo takes all the good things about Brave and makes them even better by keeping everything clean, light, and privacy-focused. It removes the extra clutter, turns off features you might not need, and cuts down on anything that could slow you down or collect unnecessary data. Because it relies on simple settings and policies instead of modifying the browser itself, you still get full Brave compatibility—just in a smoother, lighter, and more privacy-friendly package. Brave Browser 1.91.171 changelog: General Fixed Cardano not being disabled on upgrade to Brave Origin. Upgraded Chromium to 149.0.7827.103. Origin Removed “Survey Panelist” setting from brave://settings/privacy. Fixed P3A and usage ping under brave://settings/privacy being displayed on first launch on Linux. Upgraded Chromium to 149.0.7827.103.
