    Michael Bay

  2. 2

    George Lucas

    This is a bit of cause and effect. His movies aren't the worst ever, just basic, like an unseasoned steak; the problem with this guy is that 1) He's been riding the same movie's fame for 32 years and 2) His movies have ruined more people's lives than cigarettes (although World of Warcraft is trying their hardest). Yes, George Lucas is basically the Alien Queen and the nerds are his face-huggers, because their entire existence is devoted to one purpose. Another annoying problem is his re-release of the original trilogy. George, you don't get to go back and fix your mistakes just because you can't come up with anything new.

    Uwe Boll

    If you know who this man is, you know to shoot on sight. If you don't know who he is, his name translates to "Film Cancer".
  4. 4

    Joel Schumacher

    Another no brainer. Joel just had to go ahead and turn the Batman franchise into his own neon-disco-ice show-homoerotic fantasy, and all we could do was sit and watch, helpless and nauseated.

    Bryan Singer

    One of two directors to destroy two comic franchises. Many people out there think that he did X-Men justice, but all us real fans know the truth and look at those others with a mix of pity and hate. 'Superman Returns', on the other hand, was a superhero movie without a plot or anything remotely entertaining. When I say "Singer has never done a good film in his whole career.", people always counter with, "But what about 'The Usual Suspects', wasn't that awesome'?". Emphatically no. That movie is basically 'Fight Club' for people with lower brain function. And what's with this Nazi fetish he has?

    I won't lie and say I don't enjoy a brainless action flick purely for entertainment now and again, but it does make me sad when they pull from such wonderful, long-running material and turn it into an hour and a half of 'oh my god everything's happening so fast look at all the explosions' and then the credits roll...disappointing.

      Ugh, YES. He wasn't just a pretty good Superman, he was a GREAT Clark Kent.



      Although, maybe it's more important to be a good Superman than it is to be a good Clark Kent. Cause if the guy's a s**tty Clark Kent, that's fine because, frankly, Superman is a s**tty Clark Kent.



      Looking forward to Cavill either way.

    You seem very passionate about this topic. And to be honest with you I kind of agree. I never saw X-Men 3 but from what I heard it was halfassed. And ya they don'e even care about the viewers or anything like that. Im excited to see your list of directors that you do like.

    This list is not about who I like, that is one for another time and is on my lists of lists. As stated above, I do very much adore Judd Apatow and his work, so he is on this list simply for comedic value. As for Ratner, I dislike that he halfassed X-men 3, and that in general his movies are done for the same reason as Michael Bay's. They only see their viewers as walking money bags, and have no interest in doing anything for other than making assloads of cash, rather than making something special. I love low art done by smart individuals, but they have no interest in new ideas or anything original; their movies are a bright shiny $100 million dust cover over a rusty broken down El Camino.

    so many people hate on brett ratner. is it just because the guy has a personality? i think the man knows how to make a blockbuster and please the mass. his movies aren't meant to appreciated by film gurus. that's not the point.

    kudos for including Tyler Perry in this...if I want to see an emotionally unbalanced old black lady obsessed with herself, I can take a drive through Watts for free.
