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.

Stanley kubrick - To me the best director there ever was...

Oliver Stone - Platoon was just amazing and every film is wicked

    • Nvidia's GeForce NOW summer sale drops prices for Ultimate and Premium memberships

      By AndrewSteel · Posted

      Not such a great deal, Ultimate, which gives you full 5080 features is $181.99 CAD per month, that's $2183.88 per year, I can buy the 5080 for $1809.99 CAD, then it goes up to $279.99 per month after the first billing cycle. Typical cloud rental, costs more than buying the hardware.

      Wow, spoken like a true blind hater, you don't even provide arguments. Please, go check my comment above to @seacaptain and you'll find out why what you say doesn't make sense in this context...
    • Microsoft about to radically change how often your Edge browser updates

      Get used to this, with AI tooling now uncovering new vulns and getting them exploitable far faster than has ever been possible before software is going to need to be updated far more frequently. Back in the day it may take reseachers weeks or months to do what AI can now do in hours. Once its a threat is discovered it's weaponsized far more quickly, meaning you simply can't be waiting 2, 3, 4 weeks to deploy a patch, it needs to be patched immediately. Going to be interesting handling this in the enterprise space where traditionally patching has been steady, but very staged (and rightly so up until now), that is going to have to change.

      You don't need to "close all browser sessions constantly" or wait for updates to install. The updates download in the background while you use the browser, without interrupting you, they install automatically the next time you launch the app. And they install very fast (depending on your storage speeds, of course), you have to wait at most 2-3 extra seconds, if any. Seems like you haven't used Edge in a loooooooong time...
