Ridley Scott has directed many successful films. Which are your favorites?

My favs are Hannibal, Gladiator and Blade Runner. :D
 
Ridley Scott was responsible for 1492? My opinion of him has dropped through the floor.

BTW, I voted for Blade Runner, but there were several other flicks on the list that I also liked.
 
I just saw Black Hawk Down last week and think it had, without a doubt, the best war action sequences EVER. Unfortunately, the dialogue stunk (but there wasn't much of it) and so would the plot if it wouldn't have been based on a true story.

I didn't like any of the other films... except Alien, but I've never really sat through the whole thing.
 
Alien and Blade Runner.

Black Rain brings back memories too, first movie I saw in a movie theatre...
 
He didn't do "Aliens"?
 
"Blade Runner" it is, then. Thanks Mikoyan.
 
I voted Alien, although director's cut of Blade Runner is a far better movie (none of that explanation speech ruining the scenes).

Have yet to see his later stuff... a pleasure for tomorrow.
 
Alien and Blade Runner. Two classics, IMHO (I got the whole Aliens series in DVD - waves at me :D)

Regards :).
 
I consider the Director's Cut of Blade Runner to be among the top five movies of all time on all scores - vision, execution, acting, script, cinematography, etc. - so guess what I picked...
 
Alien and Blade Runner get my votes.

Gladiator was entertaining, but not a favorite. Thelma and Louise was a good film, and I'm surprised it still has 0 votes.
 
Blade Runner the PC game was better than Blade Runner the film. IMO.

I voted Gladiator - simply awesome
 
My vote goes to Gladiator. :goodjob:

G.I.Jane must be one of the most horrible movies ever - for all the wrong reasons. :ack:
 
Alien. Gladiator was okay.

Black Hawk Down is "war porn". :D I don't know where I heard that, but I think it's a good description.
 
Gladiator- for all its faults I enjoyed Oliver Reed`s speech about not fearing death. Also I think Russell has a lot to offer as an actor (I had to say that or he`ll hit me).

You know Oliver Reed died during that film? My theory is that Russell had actually been using Oliver`s soul while he was too drunk to notice it was missing. When he finally wised up the soul decied to stick with Russell- the new Oliver Reed.

Open the windows when you use furniture polish kids- its dangerous stuff.
