    Even so, you can tell when it's a Fincher film. He is a master of the craft and a perfectionist. Every frame can literally be framed. Gets the best from his actors and his photographer and creates, with such a precise, technical but unique, etc.--- vibe, I guess we should call it. He's not quite a Kubrick or Scorsese (both wrote some but mostly directed), but Fincher is very close.
    Then there are the QTs and PTAs of the world. And God bless both of them. The best two American screenwriters AND directors of their generation.

With PTA, though, for example, I love each of his films on a personal level-- some more than others, sure, but I find his versatility in the medium and how he has evolved over the years to be remarkable. He deserves just a little more notoriety. Then again, he doesn't make "event films" like QT. I don't know, man. I love film, and these auteurs don't grow on trees.

Or how about Kubrick? He had co-writers on most of his films. It's not a mutually exclusive thing. I agree most writer/directors have more of a voice because they control the material from start to finish, especially if they are high profile but there are many exceptions to the rule. And there are writer directors that just do work for hire and do not maintain a coherent voice throughout all their work.

Fincher needs a good writer or his films can't be good, no matter his style. Panic Room is a mediocre movie at best, for example. Most of his best moments are due to good writing done by others. That's not to say the films he has worked on aren't good but he's closer to the group of Boyle and Scott than to the group of Tarantino and Anderson.

      That’s why it’s more important to understand and try to learn story for as long as possible before writing anything. The story should really be able to be plotted in your head. Actually writing it out it is literally then just that .
      Stephen king mastered storytelling at a very young age and is not necessarily being creative when he is then doing the writing. It is like the difference between planning a house and building the house. If you had to plan what you were doing with the house every single time you went to go put a nail in you would never get anything done.
      If you have a plan and you know exactly what you are doing, and you can be extremely efficient in the process, then something very very complicated becomes an even enjoyable process.
      But that is then really just step one because what are you actually going to do with that power and understanding now that you know that process? Tons of people call them selves filmmakers and know that process but really suck at storytelling, and many great storytellers give up on mastering the process.

      Exactly, I always considered video club boy as somewhat of a movie VJ: he basically takes things he liked from some movies and paste it into one of his overindulgent childish fantasies that are probably fueled by too many bong hits.
      David Fincher is on a whole other level. I rather watch one of his flawless adaptations over the pastiche Tarantino usually sign as an "original work". Fincher is at Scorcese level: true, old school cinema. Not that gory crap Tarantino and his Mexican pal direct, wasting a great cast. Fincher squeezes Oscar-worthy performances from his actors; Tarantino bastardizes their talent just to put them outside their comfort zone and the idiot thinks that has some sort of value.

    As far as my favorite directors go, Tarantino, Scorsese, Fincher, Ritchie, Tony Scott, they all have a very unique style. My favorite example is True Romance, written by QT, but directed by Tony Scott. That movie does not look like a QT movie, but when Tony Scott told QT he should take over for the Walken/Hopper 10 minute dialogue, that is a QT scene through and through. And even not knowing who wrote or directed this movie, you would always guess right because both their styles ooze from the screen and it's beautiful.

Im not saying theres not any other good ones, and im not saying Finchers bad or whatever, not at all, but Tarantino has proven that his voice is essential.
