So who beats him out? Dannymac Send a noteboard - 16/10/2012 02:23:19 AM
Given that cinema is a visual medium, and he has completely changed the bounds of what is possible (the answer being, basically, anything,) who has had a bigger influence on the medium?

When the career of George Lucas is reviewed, will he be the most influential film-maker of all time? Dannymac - 10/10/2012 12:27:59 AM 971 Views
ont forget THX and Skywalker Sound. *NM* MightyYT - 10/10/2012 04:02:18 AM 307 Views
Absolutely, right. ironclad - 10/10/2012 08:11:54 AM 677 Views
Shrug. He might be the most influential special-effects artist *NM* beetnemesis - 10/10/2012 08:43:05 AM 307 Views
Hardly, he's not even one... *NM* DomA - 12/10/2012 01:21:18 AM 274 Views
It is going to be the same way with Steve Jobs Roland00 - 10/10/2012 02:38:25 PM 596 Views
Steve Jobs shouldn't be remembered for the Apple II, it was Woz's creation. Anonymous2000 - 18/10/2012 04:37:38 AM 529 Views
He deserves all the credit he gets, he's a superior artist to his pals Spielberg & Coppola Cannoli - 10/10/2012 04:15:29 PM 720 Views
My point is that his greatest contribution is horrifically overlooked. Dannymac - 11/10/2012 06:14:53 AM 581 Views

I'm going to start making a list of people who say stuff like this to me. Cannoli - 12/10/2012 03:48:36 AM 642 Views
well, I always point it out when it happens to me imlad - 12/10/2012 08:24:44 PM 621 Views
acting does matter for opera though ... The_Muted_Grimaud - 23/10/2012 07:57:56 AM 779 Views
That's giving a single man way too much credit and influence, and under the wrong title DomA - 12/10/2012 01:13:07 AM 566 Views
I'm not sure the OP was saying he was the most influential director imlad - 12/10/2012 08:34:02 PM 599 Views
Pretty sure I said film-maker. (Checks the Subject line.) Yep, I did. *NM* Dannymac - 15/10/2012 05:28:50 AM 304 Views
That's precisely the problem. You said filmmaker, not effects studio owner. *NM* Tom - 18/10/2012 10:31:26 PM 270 Views

this is not in response to DomA's comment, but imlad - 19/10/2012 08:31:23 PM 609 Views
I've seen parts of that. It's a good one. *NM* ironclad - 22/10/2012 08:49:47 AM 271 Views
I agree 100%. *NM* Tom - 18/10/2012 10:29:40 PM 277 Views
Short answer, no. HyogaRott - 15/10/2012 06:19:52 PM 662 Views
So who beats him out? Dannymac - 16/10/2012 02:23:19 AM 550 Views
Thats the point, he didn't actually change anything; he demanded that others change things. HyogaRott - 16/10/2012 02:35:03 PM 720 Views
You have a strange definition of influence. Nate - 16/10/2012 09:55:59 PM 603 Views
Not really, influence is somthing actively done, his role was too passive. HyogaRott - 17/10/2012 03:23:40 PM 639 Views
Spielburg, Howard, Coppola, Tarrentino... There is a long list, even only among the modern filmakers *NM* HyogaRott - 16/10/2012 02:39:28 PM 306 Views
Maybe, no, no, and no. Lucas had a much bigger impact that any of the film-makers ..... Anonymous2000 - 18/10/2012 04:40:41 AM 559 Views
Well, as a director he doesn't usually even warrant mention Tom - 18/10/2012 10:27:24 PM 770 Views
Absolutely not. Tom - 18/10/2012 10:19:20 PM 723 Views
