Who sucks?

pure_mercury · 08-16-2008, 03:08 AM

Which artists (with some modicum of critical acclaim) actually suck? Directors, authors, graphic artists, whatever? Who is completely overrated? Which creative emperors have no clothes?

First nominee, for Egregious Overratedness: My Bloody Valentine. Cool sounds, no songs to speak of, not a great example of the shoegazer aesthetic.

I'll probably get creamed for this but I am not impressed by Neil Gaiman.

That was written by Christopher McQuarrie, and directed by Bryan Singer. I happened to like that film. How about A Beautiful Mind and Saving Private Ryan for ludicrously overrated films of the past ten years?

EDIT: Gladiator is one of the worst Best Picture Oscar winners in history. And I like Ridley Scott.

I agree with Gladiator, it was lame. I liked a Beautiful Mind and Saving Private Ryan quite a bit.
