Tony Scott

[DLaurent]

Which of his films are worth watching and are they any good?

Seen Top Gun, Beverley Hills Cop 2, and True Romance. Reason I asked is I watched the original 1987 Man on Fire the other day, and my mate told me to just watch the Denzel Washington remake. It's part of my new style of watching 'new' films.

Last boy scout is good.

If you're able to deal with snarky new york twats then this is a diverting listen praising tony scott to the skies

He did five with Denzel and they're all good. I like Enemy of the State too.

I'm gonna watch Spy Game tonight, as it's one of the free ones of Amazon Prime.

My favourite Ridley is Someone to Watch Over Me.

Who would you vote for?

Tony vs. Ridley

The solid action thriller or the flawed epic? Tony never made anything as good as Alien or Blade Runner, but he was more consistent and Ridley's all over the place.

I'll be able to answer when I've seen more Tony films, as Ridley has done some pretty awful stuff of late.

 

[version]

Tony developed this mad style that even he said went too far by the time he did Domino.

"Bob Dylan fanatic. Sports gambler. Michael Mann cultist. Disciple of LeBron. Champion of Scott (Tony)."

i wont deny, but i admire artists that are more selective in their work.... ridley just pumps out so much shit, especially in recent years

Spy Game was alright. Always takes me a while to adjust to the pace of a new film after so many old ones that although might be well paced, seem to have meaning in every action. No fat in other words. More watching required.
