02.19.09 OOOH, YOU’RE SO EDGY, E.W.!
I f-cking hate lists. Everyone on the internet constantly spews inane monkey shit and puts numbers next to it and calls it a “Top (blank) List.” And people click on that shit because we’re all simple f-cking shitheads when it comes right down to it. And because people click on it, other people throw more shit and put more numbers next to it and more shitheads read that shit and before you know it it’s all a big shitty shit party which brings us to today. The shitheads at Entertainment Weekly made a list of the “Top 25 Greatest Active Directors”, which I read because I’m a shithead, and now I’m sharing it with you shitheads:
1. Steven Spielberg
2. Peter Jackson
3. Martin Scorsese
4. Christopher Nolan
5. Steven Soderbergh
6. Ridley Scott
7. Quentin Tarantino
8. Michael Mann
9. James Cameron
10. Joel and Ethan Coen
11. Guillermo del Toro
12. David Fincher
13. Tim Burton
14. Judd Apatow
15. Sam Raimi
16. Zack Snyder
17. Darren Aronofsky
18. Danny Boyle
19. Clint Eastwood
20. Ron Howard
21. Ang Lee
22. Paul Thomas Anderson
23. Paul Greengrass
24. Pedro Almodóvar
25. Jon Favreau
Steven Spielberg at number 1! Oh my gosh, I never saw that one coming! Steven Spielberg is like the Brett Farve of filmmaking. He’s not bad at what he does (and I admit I loved Minority Report as much as I hated The Terminal) and he seems like a nice enough guy, but so many people suck him off so often that part of you just wishes he’d get stung to death by bees. And Peter Jackson? F-ck off. I fell asleep during the first hobbit movie and I only sat through the others to see if Frodo and Sam would finally buttf-ck each other. So anyway, congratulations on making us all sit though yet another asinine quantification of intangibles, you goddamned smelly pukefaced yak touchers.

Shit.
What do they think, porn directs itself?
You fell asleep?? I cried during Lord of the Rings.
When I came back from the bathroom, I accidentally sat on my balls.
Jon Favereu???? Are you fucking serious. I love Iron Man. If that film were a chic I’d fuck it and even call it the next day. But before Iron Man Fav did Elf, Zathura, and Made. Alfonso Cuaron did Children of Men and a Harry Potter movie I actually liked and he ain’t on this list. Jesus, Paul Thomas Anderson is Only 3 away from the guy that directed a Faison Love Will Farrell movie and is 9 under Judd Apatow?
Quentin Tarantino’s Daily List
1. Wake up
2. Jerk off to Enter the 36 Chambers
3. Have rambling conversation with yourself about Sid Haig
4. Eat a baby
5. Go to sleep
Judd Apatow? Really? I have a lot of problems with this list - Clint Eastwood and Ang Lee below Zack Snyder, James Cameron even being on the list when he hasn’t directed a movie in 12 years - but none is as retarded as Judd “Here’s some regular guys doing regular stuff, aren’t they funny? They’re so funny I’m not going to move my camera or exercise any sort of visual style whatsoever” Apatow.
The ‘25 Greatest Directors’ title was actually a last minute edit. It was originally called ‘25 Directors Our Readers Might Recognize’, and was alphabetical.
PIC CAPTION: What a Napoleon Dynamite wet dream looks like.
Awesome, sounds like Vance is having the same kind of day I am.
What, no Reny Harlin?! FAIL.
Ron Howard?
I’m too shocked to even make a rape joke.
I thought the caption was the “entertainment” for the Slumdog Millionaire cast?
“Hello Moe’s…”
“Yes - I’m looking for my friend Al - Al Paca.”
“AL PACA! IS THERE AN AL PACA HERE?”
No Michael Bay?
You’ll pay for this EW! Boom!
llama llama llama llama llama
oooohhh a snaaaaake a snaaaaaaake oooohh nooooo

If EW made the top 25 worse directors, it would be the same list backwards.
They should direct my dick into their mouth cavity.
No matter how many times He reads this list, The Mighty Feklahr still cannot find Rob Zombie on it!
Hrmmmm…. no M. Night Shamandong either. E.W., your credibility has just risen 0.3 microprops.
No Tyler Perry? I call bullshit!
As soon as Mel Gibson received his copy of Entertainment Weekly, he stripped naked, smeared cat shit on his forehead, ran outside and called the telephone pole a dirty Jew.
Wait until he sees this list…
Somewhere, George Lucas is looking at this list and wondering if that contract with Nerd Satan was really worth it.
#26. Miley Cyrus
Pfft. I call bullshit. That can’t be really be in this week’s EW. It has nothing to do with Twilight.
Clint Eastwood is rated much higher on the Top 25 Deceased Directors LIst.
