Movies Better director: Nolan vs Tarantino

That's a pretty tough one actually. Both are beasts when at the top of their game and I don't think either could make the other guy's best stuff. I think Nolan dips into mediocrity more often than Quentin though.

I guess the best way I sort of see it, Nolan makes movies for the Academy, and Tarantino makes movies for the audiences.

Both are quality filmmakers, but with the exception of Batman Begins and and The Dark Knight, I don't find Nolan's films maintain my interest in repeated viewings. They're good movies, but for me most are one and done.

Tarantino makes fun movies, and there are quite a few in his body of work I can watch repeatedly and still enjoy.

I think the Mexican dude is more better

It's the one that says BAD MOTHERFUCKER on it.

 

[Takes Two To Tango]

I think Nolan, never been into Tarantino films that much.

 

[SmoothPies]

Nolan for me. Both are probably in my top 5 for active directors.

Nolan has arguably only made 1 mediocre film (Tenet) his entire career

hard question,
really they should do mix a sci fi, gangster film, with a star studded cast, with a 80's or 70's aesthetic.
although get tarantino's people to handle the audio

 

[Fox by the Sea]

tarantino's best is higher than nolan's best.

This is actually a very good question. One of them make nerdy movies that tries to hard to be epic.

The other make very strange movies them seem to be made for people who do drugs.

Both have made two or three actual good movie.

So who's who?!

And I don't have a high opinion of either of these guys work.
But gun to my head
Prestige < Pulp Fiction

Prestige is < than Pulp Fiction. Are you high?! We agree! I think Prestige is Nolans best movie arguably and Pulp Fiction shits on it.

x<y means y is bigger than x.

Nolan and it's not even close. It's like comparing fine dining to a burger. I love a good burger, but it's just a damn burger.

Exactly because of that. Have a great one!

Nolan makes massive blockbusters w/ massive budgets, which is what i typically associate w/ eating a burger. Nolan’s movies are also stuffed w/ a buncha gobbledygook just like a burger.

fine dining is like Tarkovsky or Bergman. or even PTA

 

[Nathan LaMontagne]

I enjoy Tarantino more.

Nolan is more generic, high budget, make a movie for awards shows.

Tarantino is obviously a Tarantino.
