I've always prefered Tony Scott as a filmmaker over Ridley Scott. Tony's films had all the heart that his brother's films sorely lacked when comparing filmographies side by side. He was unpretentious and it's a shame that he isn't remembered for more for the quality of "popcorn movies" he made consistently throughout his career.

Ridley was very hit or miss but his visuals in many cases were much darker and felt colder, even though they were still strikingly beautiful. Blade Runner, Alien, and Black Rain all kind of do this. I guess the best way to describe it, is that Ridley's films feel like a Brit directed them and Tony's feel like an American directed them.

His films are infinitely watchable because they do concentrate on character. I never get bored with the action in his films because I care who lives and who dies. That is rare in action films, especially now. I started using telephoto lenses because of his films. RIP Tony, we'll continue to try and apply your lessons.

I think Scott hit his peak stride in the 90s from 'The Last Boyscout' through to 'True Romance' and 'Crimson Tide'. Three extremely different stories and genres, but all near perfect. I feel that 'Spy Game' doesn't get enough love too. RIP Tony. You were my favourite filmmaker growing up.

From how he crafted his movies to how he directed his cast to his selection of scripts. That is rarely seen with today's filmmakers and its those lessons that need to be remembered.

I knew I loved many of Tony Scott's films, but it wasn't until I looked at this that I realized just how beautiful his work was. A car exploding--something you see everyday in movies--is somehow transformed, in Man on Fire, into something you'll only see once in your life. How he worked with light, with water, how he moved the camera through a scene, demonstrates both a love and a mastery of the medium that we don't often see. I hope that many generations of filmmakers can find inspiration from him.

Yes, I too felt like an idiot for not realizing the evident genius throughout the man's filmography. I DID recognize it in Top Gun but not as much elsewhere until this remarkable heartily summary. A film with action isn't a film (merely) of action, thus it's worthwhile a distinction nowadays, amidst plenty of nothingness everywhere on screen.

I think Top Gun and Crimson Tide are my most favorite of his films. He made you really care for the characters even if they're flawed, the visuals aren't confusing that it takes you out of the immersion, and you don't have to be a pilot or a sailor to be able to understand and appreciate them. He values storytelling more than accuracy or logic because its what's more important.

I'm surprised, if you aren't, a director. You totally get it! This is also VERY well edited, it's like you're standing behind him. I do disagree about Domino, I loved it. I was on the set for the scene with the explosion and didn't know too much about the film. When I saw it, oh wow, not just seeing the explosion but wow. The characters, shots, style, colors, everything was was so spot on and beyond. I miss his pink hat. Often you run into people you've worked with on other sets and this was no different, but it was the first on set with Tony. Every director has their own style on a set, some more engaged and he was very hands on vs. always behind the camera, looking and interacting with everything, everyone. Some don't, but the great ones, regardless of their visual style of creating the cinematic symphony, always do. He's incredibly observant and that shows in the audience being able to see exactly how and why and the order it should...order to whatever chaos may be going on and the peaks and valleys of the ride.

One of my best friends died of cancer and it was a long and painful process. He was a shell of himself when he finally died. I can respect people in situations like that who choose to die on their own terms rather than those of the disease. Rest in peace Tony Scott.

I think the thing with that movie, is we have to see more like it to appreciate it. A lot of his movies are like that. You cant truly appreciate what he did until you see someone try to copy it.

Also the day I found out Man on Fire was rated 47 on metacritic was the day these cockroach critics were dead to me!! Wish he was still alive today and making great movies. R.I.P.

The one thing about Tony Scott's film technique that has always inspired me, more like driven me, is his masterful use of the Telephoto lens. If one was to truly succeed in adapting/ borrow his visual style, they would find them selves rarely in the same room with the talent do to the sheer distance he or she would need to put in between the camera and the action.

Everything came together damn near perfectly in Top Gun and I hope you all understand why. I give it 4 out of 4 stars. Forgive me for trying to put my quick thoughts into words effectively.

Great video. I've always felt Tony Scott was very under rated. Like you mention in the video, no, all his films weren't great, but when he was on his game, his films were and still are magical. True Romance, Crimson Tide, Top Gun, Days of Thunder. These are all timeless films that I can watch and enjoy any time they're on, and am constantly referencing scenes from in my real life. I know it doesn't mean anything, but I was actually stationed in Long Beach California in the Navy in 1993 when True Romance came out, and watched it in the Long Beach theater at least three times, and every time I had to drive over the Vincent Thomas Bridge to get to and from my base to the theater to see this film I loved so much. Just one of those weird coincidences in life. The man was a huge talent, and it's a shame we lost him when and how we did, because I think he still had a lot to offer the world.

From Top Gun, Spy Game to Unstoppable, Tony Scott was a great director, without using extra fancy blockbuster exagerted effects, He give to us movies with memorable action scenes, dialogs and soundtracks. A lot of people refers to him like a mediocre director, but if they make an effort to understand more deeply the cinema world then you are going to find that is an average director which created a new style and visual concept , but more than that. He offered us action movies stories with characters like everybody of us with down to earth stories.

Definitely still underrated but I think the re-evaluation of his work started already when he was alive and it has definitely continued even more prominently after his unfortunate death. I recall Tarantino comparing him to Douglas Sirk. I'm not a fan of everything he did and some of the newer work was just too messy for me, but always interesting, even when I didn't particularly care for it. For me his most underrated movie is probably Days of Thunder. Most people dismissed it when it came out and it is still not very liked. All the talk about it being just a Top Gun remake etc. Which it is, on the surface. The story has lots of similar beats and characters but cinematically the devices he uses to tell the story are daring, almost abstract at times. It's unashamedly over the top at times but then surprisingly emotional in other scenes. Yet the kind of crazy, borderline schizophrenic tone works. The sense of speed and danger in the racing scenes is spectacular. Still some of the best car action I've ever seen in movies. Can't remember who it was, may have been Tarantino again who compared the film to a spaghetti western but instead of horses, the hero and villain ride on super fast cars.

Boy Scout, Romance and Revenge were on constant rotation back in the day and pretty much all his later work with Denzel were pieces of pure spectacle cinema that's all too rare these days. Good job my friend...

Man you need way more subscribers. I love this channel. I enjoy the dissecting commentary on action cinema. There's no other show like this 👍👍👍👍 you gotta do an episode on director Gareth Evans. I'm already sure you know who he is.

That is planned, but probably more on his films than on him specifically, at least until post-Apostle (as he's still fairly new). And thanks, I'm doing my best! Hopefully it will pick up soon.

My all time favourite Tony Scott film will always be Unstoppable because it summarises everything I like about Tony Scott. Plus for me it is an unofficial sequel to Speed.

If Tony was alive I think he'd make the top gun sequel and further other films. It just makes me sad that someone as initiative as him is gone. But may he rest in peace and I'll continue to watch his films and his legacy will continue on

Of his movies I saw only Top Gun, Beverly Hills Cop 2 and Dèja Vu until the day before yesterday, when i saw Man on Fire. Just then, like if i finally had enough data to complete an equation, I realized he's the father of any bad habit in commercial action cinema.

If you care for some constructive criticism, I think you should work on repeating things less. You found a lot of ways to say that Tony Scott's editing style was overdone/etc. in the video, which I think could be cut out. Very enjoyable watch, btw.

I think you're right. It's difficult really right now to focus on refining the videos as well as I could between all my other work and still keep up a relatively regular schedule, but I'll keep this in mind

I would agree with Connor; I've been enjoying watching your videos over the last few days, but find the concluding remarks are just reiterations of points you've already made several times over. That said, it's good work and I'm looking forward to seeing more.

Rossatron btw another thing to I need to tell you is your critique on the filming of the Captain America Civil War shaky cam isn't entirely right. That shaky cam didn't obscure the action and the Bucky Black Panther Captain America action scene/chase was amazing and one of many of the great action scenes in the movie. Btw I think you should do a video like this for Michael Mann movies like Collateral and Heat

I actually like his repetitions. For people like me who are less knowledgeable in these details and movie making in general, it's much better to hear something more than once and/or from a different angle.

A cinematic genius. He re-wrote the book. So many directors were obviously gobsmacked by what he pulled off that many have "gone to the well" of Tony, to try and copy him. There will only ever be one Tony Scott.
