My Least Favorite Movie Directors

My face (no, I'm not Kate Winslet) after watching another bad movie from another bad filmmaker.
I believe it was last year that I posted my favorite movie directors which is no question Martin Scorsese. But, I may need to put another filmmaker onto the list as I saw 3 of his films and they are all great in different aspects. However, we all have directors that we abhor such as these movies that these directors made. When I see the person in the trailer or ad, I shrug in disgust and go into the movie with low expectations, hoping that their next movie is very good. But, at least, here are my least favorite movie directors no matter if they have one good movie in their resume.

Joel Schumacher

Best Movie: Falling Down
Worst Movie: Do you really need a clue? Batman & Robin

 John Moore

Best Movie: None
Worst Movie: A Good Day to Die Hard

 Jon Avnet

Best Movie: I've never seen Fried Green Tomatoes, a guilty pleasure is Red Corner
Worst Movie: 88 Minutes

 Tyler Perry

Best Movie: By acting, Gone Girl By directing: Madea's Family Reunion
Worst Movie: A Madea Christmas & Madea's Witness Protection

 Dennis Dugan

Best Movie: Happy Gilmore
Worst Movie: Grown Ups 2

 McG

Best Movie: Charlie's Angels & We Are Marshall
Worst Movie: This Means War

 M. Night Shyamalan

Best Movie: The Sixth Sense & Unbreakable
Worst Movie: The Last Airbender & After Earth

 Paul W.S. Anderson

Best Movie: Event Horizon
Worst Movie: Death Race & The Three Musketeers

 Michael Bay

Best Movie: The Rock 
Worst Movie: Transformers 2 & 4, Pearl Harbor
MY LEAST FAVORITE DIRECTOR(S) ARE:

Jason Friedberg & Aaron Seltzer

Best Movie: None at all
Worst Movie: Everything they do. They're all parody films. Look up Wikipedia.

Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix (2007), PG-13, ★★1/2

We're about halfway through the Harry Potter franchise and this is the turning point in which I found the material to be darker and more mature when the storyline surrounding Lord Voldemort grows. And, also we see another new and fresh direction as David Yates comes into the spotlight to finish off the franchise with the last four movies. I remember watching the trailer in the theaters and I was excited for this movie as it was mostly action-packed. The bottom line is despite the camaraderie between the young Hogwarts characters and a real-good action sequence in the climax, it is a choppily edited and more grounded movie that does not provoke much magic or memorable scenery. Harry Potter (Daniel Radcliffe) is enduring a hot summer and Dudley (Harry Melling) provokes him by making fun of the fact that Harry is haunted by Cedric's death from The Goblet of Fire and also his mom's death. As a storm approaches, demeanors come into the tunnel sucking Dudley's so...

Non-Stop (2014), PG-13, 3 stars

The passengers think Bill Marks (Liam Neeson) is a terrorist. Airports and airplanes. The lines. The crowds. The delays. Everything that Bill Marks (Liam Neeson) hates about flying. When it comes to airports, I have to go through the procedure with taking your carry-on baggage and luggage on the flight. Then, I go through security which I have to admit is not as bad, just follow the rules and guidelines. After security, what do you do? If you are two or three hours early, you have time to kill: Have something to eat, watch something on your IPad, shop, etc. As you board and get on the plane, anything can happen from turbulence to maybe something unexpected like this movie's situation. This movie is silly and preposterous, but it is a fun movie to watch. The movie opens with Bill Marks tired drinking alcohol and arguing with a supervisor on his cellphone glancing at a photo of his daughter. But, he is trying to get his act together by lighting a cigarette while he is being pus...
