Title: They Shoot Pictures, Don't They?
Post by: j_scott_stroup04 on January 13, 2004, 03:44:16 PM
I was wondering if anybody on this site is aware of theyshootpictures.com?  If you're not, I strongly suggest that you visit this website as soon as possible.  Note: make sure you put it exactly what I wrote, no www. at the beginning.  

This place has a top 100 greatest directors of all time list.  a top 1000 greatest movies of all time list.  Almost any director you can name has their own page.  It's quite the interesting find.  I came across this site about 4 months back and have been hooked ever since.
