There are certain adored directors that make me grind my teeth. Nolan is at the top of the list. Wes Anderson is right up there. Gregg Araki and Neil LaBute really and truly suck, too, but they aren't nearly as adored. Imagine, for a minute, moderating /r/movies and actively hating Chris Nolan and Wes Anderson.
Question - do you think dislike these movies more because they are popular / well-liked by the general masses? Like, if they weren't so generally universally "acclaimed" by internet folk, would you dislike them less?
In the company of men is almost universally forgotten and I hate it with the unquenched fire of a million suns. Almost nobody remembers The Living End and it's a wretched piece of shit. However, I am reminded with dreary regularity of how many people are wrong about Chris Nolan. ;-)
