Yeah, I was looking for guesses.
You like ships. You don't seem to be looking at the destinations. What you care about is the ships, and mine's the nicest.

Buffista Movies 7: Brides for 7 Samurai
A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.

James Cameron, Daisy? (I'm prone to mixing up James Cameron and Cameron Crowe, so I'm making sure I'm thinking of the right guy) I don't think I'd like that.
I can't think of cinematographer/directors.

Was the cinematographer the same person as the director?

Does Terry Gilliam have any Oscars? Only noms, I see.
That's who I would think. My other guess would be Neil Jordan.
I don't think it's a cinematographer/director. I think they have a cinematographer and a director already linked, and the director has the Oscars.
Actual cinematographer/directors comprises a very small group of people like Nicolas Roeg and Richard Rodriguez.

Dunno about Cameron, Gaiman called the unnamed director with many, many Oscars a "genius" and IMO Cameron is sort of a hack and I don't think I'd want to see what he'd do to American Gods.

Y'all are probably right and it's a package of cinematographer and director, not one person.
Hee, hee, I'm imagining a Woody Allen American Gods and it's awful.

This is what I thought.

Lesse, Spielberg, Stone, Howard, Coen Brothers...

Just poking around the intertubes I'm seeing speculation on: Ron Howard (I could see that), Spielberg and Peter Jackson.
Howard or Spielberg is my guess. Which is probably not the ideal person for the project. The Rob Reiner that did Princess Bride, though, could work. Is that Rob Reiner still around?
