which do you like better? which style of direction did you like better?

we all agree these guys are both brilliant people, i was just curious as to whose movies you liked better and why.
 
kubrick hands down. i find aronofsky's direction trite, presumptuous, and transparently manipulative, while kubrick is a master of style and suspense with a twisted sense of humor.
 
I love darren but think he's highly overrated just because directers like him are in high demand and short supply...
 
Both of their styles are completely different.
The only thing they have in common is art in film making.

It's like comparing Chocolate Ice Cream to Raspberry Sorbet.

Darren is straight and to the point, while Stanley likes to "Drag" out his movies with unnecessary scenes.

Don't get me wrong, I think they are both great at what they do........
But Darren captures me better with his style of modern art and photography!
 
Aronofsky has a long way to go to even come close to the level of Kubrick...but I like both of their work.
 
No no no.. the REAL question is:

Which actor do you like better: Russel Crowe or Yahoo Serious? They are both Australian after all.

Adios,
Steve
 
I am a huge fan of Aronofsky. Give the man some time he is going to be around making brilliant movies for a long time. PI was amazing and I probably prefer it to Requiem, but both are very captivating and deal with interesting subject matter in a unique way.

The only problem I have with his work is in Requiem he overdid the hyperpaced frenetic cut-cut-cut-cut. If he interspersed that with some more long, flowing, tranquil shots (a la Kubrick, think 2001's space scenes) the fast paced cuts would have more visceral impact.

Still, for a beginner he is great. Any idea what projects are in his future? I've heard he is attached to the film version of Frank Miller's classic "Batman: Year One." I think a visionary with a dark style like Aronofsky could be one of the few people who could actually save that film franchise from the schlocky crap it has descended into.
 
Yeah but from what I heard the next Batman movie isn't going to be the Year One adaptation. Arofonsky is attached to Year One but the movie is still in pre-production stages while he is finishing some other production. At least thats what I heard from the rumor mill.
