River over the River Kwai? that sounds like quite a feat of physics
It is, it is indeed....I suspect that I meant "Bridge over the River Kwai"
All the world will be your enemy, Prince with a thousand enemies, and whenever they catch you, they will kill you. But first they must catch you, digger, listener, runner, prince with the swift warning. Be cunning and full of tricks and your people shall never be destroyed.
Michael Mann, is often overlooked I find too. He's more about style, but goddam he's good at it. His films are usually hefty enough to work without the style too.
i am also a fan of mann's. have been since manhunter. you know going in, if nothing else, his movies will look good. i feel in heat and collateral he seems to have captured LA's sense of dislocation perfectly.
Spielberg hasn't done a huge amount lately, but his contribution to modern cinema is immeasurable. He invented the summer blockbuster, brought cgi to the fore with JP, and he gave us Indiana Jones!
i think if you look deep enough you will be able to note the presence of george lucas behind a fair bit of spielberg. having said that i do have to acknowledge that spielberg is responsible for my favouritest scene in cinema history. ever.

take a good look
this could be the day
hold my hand
lie beside me
i just need to say

But then you look at Lucas without Spielberg in front, and sob into your oatmeal.:p
Smokey Robinson constantly looks like he's trying to act natural after being accused of farting.

my second is in that subpar film, revenge of the sith, when vader's mask is lowered onto that pussy anakin's head. i waited over 25 years for that circle to be closed. my childhood is now complete.

well it is interesting that my favourite star wars film, and the one i consider the best, wasn't even directed by lucas. so you could be right about that my friend. and please don't get me started on his crap dialogue. that's when i truly weep into my oatmeal.

Did you know that Lucas wanted one of the indiana Jones sequels (can't remember which one) to be set in a haunted house? Oh my god how shit would that have been? Lucky for us Spielberg has some sense and stopped him.
