Nolan not getting his name on the poster.


Why? Is he not in the film for very long?

You think darkness is your ally? You merely adopted the dark. I was born in it.

Why should he be on the list in the first place? Did you see Rises? That's enough to put you in the naughty corner for a very long time

First of all, Rises wasn't nearly as bad as everyone likes to make out. It just didn't live up to the ridiculous hype everyone had built up around it.

Secondly, if we're basing this on their films... Did you see Ocean's Eleven/Twelve/Thirteen? Why the hell is Soderbergh even in the documentary?

Lastly, I'm surprised Nolan isn't mentioned on the poster simply because of the subject of the documentary and his very open stance on the subject, which is against the grain in Hollywood.

I did see TDKR and it was great!

You mean the critically acclaimed movie that was a massive financial success and is currently voted number 29 on the IMDB top 250 movies of all time list?

Yea, great argument. Try again.

Nolan is the punching bag of today's film snobs who think they can do better but cannot provide actual examples of what they are talking about... they love to just regurgitate the pretentious articles they masturbate to by "critics" such as Jim Emerson...

There are way too many notable directors, cinematographers, etc...they can't fit them all on the poster. I just watched the film on demand, and I really enjoyed it, although James Cameron came across (to me, anyway,) as a pompous ass, and judging by the look on Keanu's face, he may have come across that way to him, as well. I highly reccomend this film to all film lovers (and Keanu lovers, as well.) Very informative.
