Scott is losing his touch his last great film was The Martian his film since then have mediocre or crap

The Last Duel (2021) was good and better than The Martian in my opinion.

He needs to keep directing.

If you don't like his films then stop watching them, what's Ridley doing? Chaining you to a chair and forcing you to watch all his new releases?

I haven't watch any of current films since Alien Covenant Im just saying he should call it quits

That would be a shame, because he is one of the last few interesting director's still working... Nolan? Interesting, but overrated. Cameron? He isn't doing anything remotely interesting for the rest of his life as long as he is playing with his Avatar sequels, and overrated. Tarantino may still have something to show us, but his recent works haven't been as good as Jackie Brown or Kill Bills. Spielberg? If the right subject matter comes along, but otherwise meh. David Fincher was unfortunately hijacked by Netflix.

Francis Ford Coppola is grateful you're attacking someone else for a change

reply

Coppola needs to retire as well

I liked House of Gucci more, except Jared Leto's too comedic character.

The Last Duel is terrible !

reply

thats what I heard havent seen it

reply

Visually it was Ridley's old style gorgeous. But storywise not very interesting. And what was with the half masks in the duel in the end? Did they really had that kind of masks hiding only half of face?

reply

I dont care for RS horseback, sword fighting, toga wearing, historical , religious films. Gladiator is good but thats it. He however have other great films under his belt.

Napoleon will bomb hard despite being an Apple Studios production.
