I'm not sure I'd like the guy personally, but he has made several good films.

I've tried to like superhero/comic based movies but I just can't seem to enjoy them. My wife and I are big movie goers and we both feel that we must be missing something.
My current top 10 movies:
Bravehart
The Good, The Bad, and the Ugly
A River Runs Through It
Jeremiah Johnson
A Good Year
No Country For Old Men
Legends of The Fall
Pulp Fiction
Josey Wales
Close Encounters of the Third Kind
Interstellar was probably one of the better movies in the last year. Argo was also a damn good movie.
The most under-appreciated science fiction film is Forbidden Planet. This movie delves into more complex issues of the human existence. It stars Leslie Nielsen (way before is Airplane days...), Walter Pidgeon, and Anne Francis. It's worth 90 minutes of your time.
So being tired of movies with painfully predictable story arcs, no surprises and hum drum dialogue makes somebody a potential troll? I liked the first Iron Man movie, plodded through the 2nd one and after watching the 3rd one, my only thoughts were 'what did the 2nd and 3rd films do that the 1st film didn't?'.
They were the same as most superhero sequels: 'I'm a superhero' > 'Something bad happened oh no!' > 'Everything is fine now, here's a cliffhanger'.
The last one I thoroughly enjoyed was Watchmen. Mainly because I didn't finish it thinking 'well, that's that over, guess I'll probably have to watch the next one when it inevitably comes out in two years time'. I went into it thinking I'd get just another superhero movie and got something completely different. I'd gladly re-watch that over any of the recent by the numbers superhero movies.I don't know what to say about a guy who doesn't like superhero movies.
