Your result for The Director Who Films Your Life Test...

Sofia Coppola

Your film will be 56% romantic, 23% comedy, 26% complex plot, and a $ 26 million budget.

With few films under her belt (The Virgin Suicides, Lost In Translation, Marie Antoinette) as a writer/director, she's already highly respected and connected -- her dad, Francis, directed all The Godfather movies and Apocolypse Now. Sofia's good at making the romantic drama that is your life with poignant sullen moments of introspection. You saw how she stylishly handled Marie Antoinette's life, no? And who didn't have at least a lump in the throat at the end of Lost In Translation? She's already won one Academy Award for her writing, now she'll be the first woman to receive one for directing -- YOUR FILM!

Hmmm. I guess Dario Argento wasn't an option.

Edward D. Wood, Jr.

Your film will be 53% romantic, 32% comedy, 32% complex plot, and a $30 million budget.

Edward D. Wood, Jr.
Ed Wood will get your film done waaaaay under budget, and will likely make it into a classic film of all time -- for all the wrong reasons. Let's face it, your life isn't terribly exciting to begin with, and it needs some camping up. His resume includes classics such as Plan Nine From Outer Space and Glen or Glenda? He's not afraid to tackle controversial topics, and may insist on portraying a transvestite in your film -- even if you've never seen a transvestite before. He was immortalized in the Academy Award winning Tim Burton film, Ed Wood -- go see it.

It could be worse than being portrayed by a transvestite...you could be portrayed by Tor Johnson!

Perhaps not. When I saw the photo of Ms Coppola I was abruptly reconciled to her directorship of my bio. A solo bio, I think.

"A solo bio." Isn't there an aria called that?

Your result for The Director Who Films Your Life Test ...

Quentin Tarantino

Your film will be 50% romantic, 28% comedy, 41% complex plot, and a $ 39 million budget.

Wow! What a life you have led thus far! Action-packed, anti-social with probably dark humor. Quentin hasn't really made many films, but each successive one is a bigger and grander project ... and more violent. Karate CHOP! Your life story will probably star Michael Madsen, Uma Thurman, or some TV or movie star from the 1980s for which your film will be the comeback -- let's say Emilio Estevez. Maybe. Quentin's short directing resume includes Reservoir Dogs, Pulp Fiction, Jackie Brown, and Kill Bill Vols. 1 & 2.

Yecch. Given that a fourth-rate hack like Coppola is in this listing, I'd pray for a Paul Verhoeven or a Roland Emmerich to be preferable. Hell, compared to her, I'd even accept a George Lucas, and lower than that I can't get.

No, you'll get Uwe Boll, because judging from his films, he seems to hate teh genre as much as you do. :D

I kinda like mine...

Your result for The Director Who Films Your Life Test...

Steven Soderbergh


Filmography: Sex Lies and Videotape, Traffic, Ocean's Eleven, Ocean's Twelve, Erin Brockovich, and various other homemade independent films. He may just want to follow you around for a few months and construct a film out of that. Your humor is either dry or non-existant, but your life is somewhat exciting romantically because you're "bad." At least you'll be surrounded by the best-looking people who will be cast as your friends, who in real life are probably just as good-looking. Then when he wins the Academy Award for your film, he won't have to make anymore "Ocean's" films.

Isn't it hysterical that Traffic, Ocean's 11, Ocean's 12, and Erin Borckovich are "independent" and "homemade" like Sex, Lies and Videotape? Especially Ocean's 12, a big-budget sequel to a big-budget blockbuster.

Jeez, everyone's getting a bigger budget movie than me. How are they supposed to film the scene where I pilot the crashed alien spacecraft back to Jupiter on less than $100 million?
