Not quite sure. Expecting some coarse punchline as the story involves a fly (trouser-zip) and 6 inches but apart from that, no idea.

Most of the comics mentioned so far are comic-book heroes type things. As far as I can see the Realism-type comics have been missed out.

Daniel Clowes is by far the leading writer and artist in this field. His most famous is probably 'Ghost World', which got made into a movie released pretty recently, is incredible.

He also has invented the funny yet touching 'David Boring' and publishes a few issues of 'Eightball' every year.

Check him out people, he's amazing.

Hello there people, just throwing in my two cents worth.

Can't believe it took so long to mention the Coen's. They get my vote as the best directors ever. Bit extreme? Maybe. But I can find little flaws. Some people say one-trick-ponies but I just answer 'bollocks' and ask them if they've seen 'Man who wasn't there'. Most haven't. Read a great article in 'Sight and Sound' m,agazine talking about the lighting in that movie and how long it took to rig up various lamps and stuff, especially long for the piano-on-the-landing scene.

Also I thought I'd mention some debut directions which I really enjoyed.

Steve Buscemi - The Tree Lounge

Vincent Gallo - Buffalo 66.

Cheers Junkerseed, yours ain't to shabby either, bit of a fan of Maxx. You a fan of Pi, or just like the pretty flickering images?

As a new memeber which topics are the best to hang around at, bit too wide a choice for the poster with no sense of direction?

I asked him, could oysters commit suicide, coz they couldn't really hang themselves...
