Poll Comp: "Don't make me choose!" or "No contest"

This was more of a don't make me choose scenario, more than most that we have had. Both provide something great, but different. slight nod to Scorcese, I have watched Goodfellas more times than I can remember.

Scorsese for me. But was certainly a 'DONT MAKE ME CHOOSE'. Spielberg is absolutely amazing and when he does a blockbuster type movie he's in a league by himself. Schindlers List, Saving Private Ryan, ET, Close Encounters, Jaws, Indiana Jones.....I mean I could just keep going but the catalogue is literally jaw dropping. With that being said though, I think Scorsese movies are more up my alley. Goodfellas is arguably my favorite of all time. The Departed, Flower Moon, Wolf of Wallstreet, Shutter Island are all so different yet so good as well.

“Oh come on.” That’s what I said when looking at these two choices, because this is just too hard at first. I chose Spielberg because he is so multi-faceted. Mostly, I chose him because my favorite novel is Jurassic Park and while I will always contend that the novel FAR outshines the film, that film is one of the greatest things ever put out there. E.T. is another that captures my imagination, and Hook. Nobody does whimsy like Spielberg, but he also captures gripping war and terror in films like Saving Private Ryan and Schindler’s List.

My thoughts exactly. And I 100% agree on the novel, which I re-read every year

That’s awesome, I’ve never heard of anyone else re-reading Jurassic Park as much as me. I think I’ve read it ten times.
