re: Will Ben Affleck ever get any respect?

quote:

1) Ben Affleck was probably the best sub 40 director out there, and easily Top 15-20 out of everyone.

2) That all three previous movies revealed a ton of talent behind the camera and a very classical approach to cinema.

3) That Argo would be awesome.

I own every movie he's directed so far and plan to purchase Argo shortly, loved that movie. He is the damn man behind the camera. I also think he's matured quite a bit as an actor, but he's got ridiculous potential as a director.

I don't know how to explain this in the correct terms as I've never taken any movie classes or whatnot, but every one of his movies just has the right feel to it. He really seems to focus on the environment and making it a part of his movies, and I really like that. I also think the dialogue in his movies (I don't know if the director has control of that or not) has been awesome.
