One of the greatest directors of this era hails Logan as the best of his kind and gets intellectual
''Watching @mang0ld 's LOGAN again I am struck by the Zen-Western, elegiac poetry of its script and the spartan brutality of its action. It's that rare breed of film that enhances the mythology it closes. It betters the films that preceded it. One of the very best of its kind''.
Almost reminds me of Nolan's thoughts on the first x-men movie.
In a world where comic book movies are just a cgi shallow disgraces, embarrassing the art of cinema. it is good to see other comic movies doing some good for the genre. I predict The Joker will be next. it could even top Logan and TDK.

Love GDT but his word isn't gold and I wasn't much a fan of Logan anyway.

Well he got the warning already and now this strike so 1. You don't get another warning again though, the strike is warning itself, it'll just be another strike again. |

That’s pretty cool. Never saw his Reverse-Splash movie. But he’s a pretty inventive director. I should really commit more time to his films.
Does it really matter what these directors think though? Paul Thomas Anderson loves Adam Sandler movies, Kubrick was a fan of White Men Can’t Jump, and Nolan thinks Black Panther is going to be nominated for Best Picture.. and what a foolish thought that is! Right guys?

Wouldn't "best of its kind" be the X-men movies? I mean he says it "enhances the mythology it closes." Logan is at the tail end of the X-men movie universe. So it closes it. I don't think he's talking about the comic book movie genre as a whole.

I don't think he's talking about the comic book movie genre as a whole. lol, nah .... he was talking of the entire genre. that is why he said best of its kind and rare breed of film.
also toro is your standard smart hollywood director meaning he likely hates MCU movies. most logan/tdk lovers are mcu haters. didn't you get the memo in 2008 after iron man vs tdk?
it will be funny if he said xmen only and not the genre when you consider the best mcu movie winter solider is not even as good as the xmen first class and the second best mcu movie iron man was destroyed by TDK. it will be funny if the director of hellboy and blade 2 thinks an mcu movie is better than Logan. LOGIC PLEASE.

Nothing in what he said said anything that made it sound like the entire genre. |

I love how idiotically binary you are, tell me does every non-oscarbait movie get disgraced by the vapid self important tripe we get trotted out ever year that award shows aimed at stroking the ego of the entertainment industry tell us are the best?
Logan being great, which it absolutely is doesn't diminish the enjoyment or merits of the MCU films, you really need to try to figure this shit out numb nuts, only time something being insanely awesome is when it does the exact same thing as what something else tried and failed miserably at doing but does so brilliantly and effortlessly, or vice versa.
