Yes indeed. Saddened me when he turned down doing The Wolverine.

I think he's the best of the group, honestly. He needs a marquee masterpiece, but give it time.

That list had the Superior Pariah Cinematic Stamp of Approval; a very prestigious award if you ask me 
Lawless is in my Top 5 most anticipated this year. As long as he keeps working with Nick Cave in some way he'll have a stellar career.
He has a nother of my most aniticpated with Killing Them Softly. AoJJ was an artistic masterpiece and Chopper was solid.
I saw shame and loved it. Haven't seen Hunger but I will soon enough. The cast in 12 Year a Slave look ridiculous and the source material is fantastic. Looking forward to that one
Nothing needs to be said about Refn. I hesitate to say he is even up-and-coming. In many ways, he has already arrived.
I saw moon, thought it was good, not great.
Man, Take Shelter...what a movie. I have to see Shotgun Stories and I'm excited to see his upcoming movie "Mud"
