Christopher Nolan...

[Antagonist]

Genius, or just Demi-God.

I would be happy to class him as a genius for Memento alone. It is one of the very few films that I have ever been able to watch in back to back viewings... probably because I wasn't paying attention properly the first time and got ridiculously confused!

The Prestige was fantastic as well. Having only recently seen it, it is still quite fresh in my mind. The twists and turns towards the end of the film are simply amazing, but I won't elaborate any further so as not to spoil it for those who haven't seen it.

Batman Begins was almost as goob as Tim Burton's original Batman and for me to make that admission (as I think Tim Burton is god) goes to show how much I enjoyed it... And I nearly forgot to mention, Christopher Nolan wrote the screenplay for all of these films as well. Genius of ninja-esque proportions.

I was quite interested to find out that he was also doing a film project about Howard Hughes, but Scorsese beat him to the spot with The Aviator... I wonder whose would have been best?
