and before midnight (came out recently, pretty quiet release but great film)! -----> http://www.imdb.com/title/tt2209418/



I've got more than a few names to check out from this thread Ridley Scott is a big one for me too, forgot to mention him.

And I completely forgot aronofsky, what a fucking g. The fountain is fantastic (clint mansell's soundtrack is also insanely beautiful). So is requiem for a dream, and pi, and black swan.


p.s. congrats on 100 posts jorge

Blade Runner yes.

Gladiator and Prometheus are shit though. Seriously you picked them as examples over Alien?

Prometheus while having a couple cool scenes is just a completely messy plot hole riddled disaster and Gladiator after the first watch is just dull and really pretty cheesy

Nah, Gladiator is wicked.
