    I will not survive the next round. At least two of my nominees made it there, as well as at least two directors I would have nominated if someone hadn't beaten me to that. Now they will have to face one another...

    Well, I just can't believe that Round 1 saw the fall of George Cukor, Henry Koster, Oliver Stone... but John Hughes is still in the running.

    I'm still unsure how JJ Abrams or George Lucas got into this...yet no one nominated James L. Brooks, Cameron Crowe or Michael Mann.

    It makes me incredibly sad to think Takashii Miike didn't even get nominated.

    neither did Kenji Mizoguchi. I was going to nominate him, but I used up my last slot for Fassbinder, who collected 1 vote, and the vote was mine

    Right on! Or if you want you can send it and I can download immediately when I do have that much space. Or actually I suppose I can probably just download it directly to my external hard drive.

    The 4 polls currently open are the last polls in Round 2. Once these finish, we will be able to move on to Round 3. After round 3 (8 polls), we will move on to Quarter Finals (4 polls), Semi Finals, all the way down to the grand finale

    well, Hitchcock is my second favorite director, but at least he is [almost] universally loved

    I have no doubt Hitchcock will make it.

    But, in the meantime, I'm here to whine about Paul Thomas Anderson's fall.

    Yes, and I was pointing out that I don't even know who Anderson is. He is off my radar.

    Meh, I'd like to whine about Edgar Wright being kicked out of the first round, but he's only done 4 films so far, one of which I haven't seen (shocking, I know, but they still ain't released Fistful of Fingers on dvd yet!), so I'm not really surprised. Still, I know he's currently one of the coolest, most stylish comedy directors out there based purely on his work on Spaced alone! Always been a big fan!
    Never be cruel and never be cowardly. And if you ever are, always make amends.

    You are a walking talking Doctor Who encyclopedia to me.
