15 Directors Meme

So, there was this note thing going around Facebook that some blogger buddies that I've friended got in on. As far as I know, it was initiated by Branden. Anyway, I don't really like Facebook notes; I created this blog to get away from them, so, I'm going to write out my thing right here, where everyone else can see it. How do you like my shameless ploy to get more traffic? Damn, I am devious!

Before the jump, another animal for your ocular enjoyment! This is a meerkat!

Hakuna Matata Bitches!


Anyway, the idea is that you list off the first 15 directors that come to your head that have shaped the way you look at movies. You know, the ones that will always stick with you. Don't take too long to think about it. Just churn em' out. For a little extra flavor, I'm going to list off the movie I think best exemplifies what each director is all about next to their name! Let's do this.

Christopher Nolan (Inception)
David Fincher (Se7en)
Steven Speildberg (Schindler's List)
George Lucas (The Empire Strikes Back)
James Cameron (Terminator 2: Judgement Day)
Francis Ford Coppola (The Godfather)
Danny Boyle (28 Days Later...)
Paul Thomas Anderson (There Will Be Blood)
Quentin Tarantino (Pulp Fiction)
Paul Greengrass (The Bourne Ultimatum)
Martin Scorcese (The Departed)
Michael Mann (Heat)
Stanley Kubrick (A Clockwork Orange)
Ridley Scott (Alien)
Joel and Ethan Coen (Fargo)

Hmmm... This has the looks of a meme! Alright, let's roll with it! Let's turn it into a meme! Who to tag, who to tag, who to tag? If you're tagged, and decide to take part, standard rules apply! Write it up, tag others, and so on and so forth!
