But I only give him THE PRESTIGE as a movie that has made me say "Shit.... keep an eye on this dude." A lot of nice work.... but I ain't giving him the mantle you want to throw at him.

His choices are very calculated.... which is why I think I can see giving him that love (which I'm not saying he doesn't deserve.... I'm just saying, I disagree). But I think someone like Michel Gondry apes Nolan. And I'm not saying he's the best. I'm just saying he's better.

Shit.... I'd probably say someone like Pete Jackson or "Bill" Del Toro owns that title. Others I'd name ahead of Nolan would be like Bryan Singer, Sodorburgh, the Coens.... all better output than Nolan this decade.

But again... not to discredit what the man did in the past few years.... just naming cats who have put out better content.

(Just for note: I thought INSOMNIA was a dull as shit film, and an truly an unnecessary remake)
