I liked all the MI films besides 1 and 2 oddly enough, I think the first one aged badly and the second one just isn't very good besides a few action scenes. 3 is a pretty good. Ghost Protocal is soooo great, it was probably the best action movie of 2011 (unless I'm forgetting something). IDK when I'll get time to see 5 though I can't go this week and next week I'm pretty busy.

James Gunn had directed two films before GOTG, neither of which I really liked but a  lot of other peopled loved and he also wrote the script for the Dawn of the Dead remake which I liked! Jon Watts (new Spidey director) only has one film that has been widely release called Clown that got mixed reviews, which for a horror movie now a days is pretty good. He has a film coming out in a month or so that he wrote and directed starring Kevin Bacon so lets see how that goes?

The writers (one of which played Sam on Freaks and Geeks which is cool!) seem to have written a lot of mediocore comedies (none truely bad by looking through their filmography) and only have directed Vacation, which as TDA15 said has been getting negative reviews. This is a bit worrying, but their directing skills don't matter in this case and besides look at the Russo Brothers, they only directed tv sitcoms (some good, some bad) and You, Me and Dupree before Winter Soldier and now they are so beloved they are doing Civil War and Infinity War! So maybe these guys can be the Russo Brothers of writing and turn out to be better than expected?

Anyway, thats my long winded reply of the day.
