So many of his movies are so painfully plain and completely lacking in subtlety, I just can't sit through his shit.

I think Spielberg is a bit of an ass too. Just anecdotal evidence on my part.

Don't recall the Austin Powers thing.

I think he might be a sexist too.

He's a master of his craft but since water horse or whatever he's decided to forego his action blockbusters for these slow dramas no one watches.

He's an absolutely genius and in his prime few could've even held a candle compared to him.

I appreciate the man's influence and recognize his body of work as being immensely culturally significant, but he's made very few films that I actually enjoy watching. Most of his movies just seem "flat", they're never immersive and it always feels like I'm just watching a movie. I basically associate his name and style with Oscar bait and he has very few films that break that stereotype.

Schlindler's List
War Horse
Saving Private Ryan
Catch Me If You Can
Minority Report
The first three Indiana Jones films
Jaws

Are all good. There are definitely some stinkers too. Indy 4, Hook, the BFG and Jurassic Park (controversial, I know) are all pretty bad. There's also a lot I haven't seen.

His list of directed and produced films is insane.

Also he did Adventures of Tin Tin and that movie was great

They're genuinely bad movies. Most people who like them do so because they're part of their childhood. Hook in particular is awful.

I'm sure if I watched Hook again in this modern age i'd agree, I haven't seen it since my childhood and i'm in my mid 30's. Jurassic Park though, absolutely not. I've seen it within the last 3 years and it's still awesome.

I'll be honest, I didn't think it was good at the time.
