Directors Too Bad Ass to Care about Oscar

This is the time of the year when movie pundits, bloggers and critics can only talk about one thing. Maybe you live under a rock or were just to lazy to read the title of this collection so we'll give you hint. It starts with an O and ends with SCAR. Oscar is the magic word in Hollywood. Just one reviewer has to mention that a performance might be Oscar worthy and everyone goes bananas about it. But then there are some filmmakers who are totally non-plussed by that golden hunk of metal. They be all “What's the big deal?” Some of them might think that its a Hollywood popularity contest where Academy members just vote for their friends. Some don't want to deal with the expensive lobbying process an Oscar run entails. Some don't want to dull down their movies to be acceptable to the older and some-what conservative Academy (they want their movies to have tons of blood and sex, of course). Here are 5 directors who are too bad ass to care about that little fashion show in February.
