    Brian De Palma
    Not a big fan of either filmography but DePalma got more hits to me

    Benjamin Buttons might be best film listed tho... Gone Girl might be the worst too

    My fault fam, copied and pasted the list off a site so I wouldn't have to type the ? out and ended up using a bogus ass site. Ill fix it.

    I see what happened , the site added other movies he produced on.


    Both are pretty even imo, but Scarface is my favorite movie of alltime, so I gave De Palma the edge. Not mad at anyone who picks Fincher.

    Yea seeing that this is a forum on a hiphop site, I see de palma taken it off the strength of scarface alone...

    If you include Panic Room for Fincher you gotta include Bonfire of the Vanities for De Palma... lol

    I also think it's funny that fincher did madonna videos and de palma did springsteen...

    Brian De Palma Got Blow Up Carrie Scarface Carlitos Way The Untouchables The Fury

    Fincher Got Seven Fight Club Zodiac (Highly Underrated) The Social Network The Game

    Fincher Is Probably My Favorite Contemporary Filmaker Of The Last 15 Years But Brian De Palma is Brian De Palma...If Fincher Keeps Up The Consistency He'll Have The Better Filmography But As Of Right Now I Gotta Go With De Palma Because Hes More Material Out
