One of those dudes who 'movie bros' slobber over.


Scorsese, Tarantino, Nolan... they could record paint drying and their fanboys would give it an 10/10.

Basically cults.

Outside factors influencing the perception. Instead of taking each movie at face value, people get all hot and horny based on the names attached to the project.

I'd add Kubrick to that list (not a comment on the merits or otherwise of the filmmakers).

reply

I actually was gonna add him as an historical example but decided against it as he's no longer living and thus not actively making movies.

These dudes have all made some good movies but they've also had some duds. It is what it is, you can't hit a home run every time, but they have some diehard fans who trip over themselves trying to praise everything they've done.

It's basically predetermined. You know these dudes will love the movie before it's even out.

He's a great director and I enjoy his movies immensely.

I also enjoy Kubrick, Tarantino and Speilberg among others.

I wouldn't rate all of their movies a 10/10 however.

Just because someone enjoys the work of these directors doesn't make them a "fanboy".

Not everybody can be a Barbie fan like you!

I don't disagree, but Nolan takes the cake for Bro'ing right now. Marty's just enjoying his twilight years. Quentin's just trolling with his phony "I'm retired from movie making" stance.

Nolan is reveling in tlhis belief that his Shyte doesn't stink.

I don't get the hype with Nolan. Incredibly overrated.

Absolutely right. nolantards are snobs
