Re: It is silly to brand a director based on one work

Victor, once again you demonstrate your arrogance. Saying you like or do not like something is expressing a view point. Saying that because you do not like something it is therefore not good, as a fact, is arrogant.

You also again demonstrate your ability to change the statement made to suit your retort. I do not think that Tinear (and he can certainly correct me) was arguing that the violence was a good thing, or a bad thing. Merely that the current violence is more reflective of the world that we live in than the films made many years ago. With better technology and better education, we now know of Stalin's atrocities, Pol Pot, etc. Their violence makes that of todays film makers pale by comparison. Our parents and grandparents did not know of that violence, and therefore films did not depict it.

The problem with Tinear trying to define "black", is that you have taken it upon yourself to define the term, and define what is or is not "good", or "artistic." Your world does not includes grays, or any other colors for that matter. Shame.
