I would love to see [director] make a [genre] movie

I would absolutely love to see Tarsem Singh ("The Cell", "The Fall") make a straight out horror flick, something along the lines of "Hellraiser". I think that would just be absolutely mind blowing.

I would love to see James Cameron make a movie with a budget under $5M.

On a more serious note, I'd like to see David Fincher make an action movie, this time without massive studio interference.

I would have loved to have seen John Caprenter (the 80's version) make an actual western (instead of just aping the genre).

Yup, first thing I thought when I saw the thread title, clicked on it, and the constant Tarantino splooging ensued. You'd think all cinema begins and ends with Tarantino here.

Ditto. I'm not a Tarantino fanboy, but his films always have scenes of very intense suspense. I would like to see what he could do with a horror movie, especially something supernatural.

I would also like to see Spielberg go back to horror. We've all heard how he did practically everything on POLTERGEIST. Why hasn't he ever made another movie like that? Would that be too low-brow? Considering how scary JAWS, POLTERGEIST, and parts of JURASSIC PARK were, he apparently has an affinity for scaring people.

Yeah because heaven forbid people like someone who's popular right? Gotta pick out a bunch of obscure names to sound cool and more intelligent about film than the common board members..

Really though I don't think its so much that people think cinema begins and ends with Tarantino, but more along the lines of he is one of the best current directors/writers out there. He really hasn't made a movie I didn't somewhat enjoy and I just happen to think he could do a lot of different genres well.

And the winning number is post #17. I had my mental wager on post #9 for someone to make a pornographic film reference when I opened this thread.

Come to think of it, a Tarantino porno would be pretty fascinating.

Morbid curiosity: Christopher Nolan directing a slapstick comedy.

Actual answer: I'd love to see Wong Kar-wai take on a full-blown film nor, which hopefully will be happening with The Lady from Shanghai.

Re: I would love to see [director] make a [genre] movie

I would love to have seen Ridley Scott make a pirate movie, but that would only have gone over before the Caribbean franchise started. Basically something more serious and less whimsical. I also thinks Scott could make a good movie about bikers, like a Sons of Anarchy type movie.

And just to join the wankfest, see Quentin Tarantino make a Godzilla movie.

A Cormac McCarthy book adapted by David Lynch.
