I love the way the readers of this site get so personally affronted that the writers\’ choices don\’t correspond exactly with their own. Chill out everyone, it\’s called an opinion! They have one, you have one, we all have one – and the beautiful thing is, none of them are wrong! Wahhey!!!

In the tiled photos heading this article you have a photo from the French film "Girlhood" but nowhere in this article do I see anything about that movie or its director.

This is bizarre that you would put Sam Taylor Johnson on this list – fact is the movie would have been high profile & make a lot at the box office NO MATTER WHO DIRECTED IT. It was one of the most anticipated films because of the book. Not to mention, you gave it an awful review, all critics did. You all said how awful the chemistry was – wasnt this the only redeeming point of 50 shades?? Isnt this one of the key things a director needs to do – direct their actors?? And so I am baffled as to why it proves that she has potential as a director yet (even her first was only "decent" according to you). So explain to me the reasoning behind putting her above directors who have actually shown some sort of unique talent? Would\’ve taken anyone in your sublist before her. Particularly Sebastian Schipper who really did something daring and impressive – deserves recognition far more than just another director taking a pay cheque from Hollywood.

Since the Title of this list was:
