My Take
Tim Miller is one of those directors who came up the hard way — building Blur Studio into a respected visual effects powerhouse before Hollywood even knew his name — and then he blew the doors off with Deadpool in 2016, a film everyone in the studio system said was unreleasable. He proved them spectacularly wrong. His background as a CG artist and animator bleeds into everything he touches, giving his work a kinetic, almost tactile energy that pure live-action directors just can't fake. Love, Death & Robots is where I think he's really in his element though — that anthology series is wildly uneven in the best possible way, and the Emmy wins are well deserved. Terminator: Dark Fate was a tough gig with impossible expectations, and honestly I think it was better than it got credit for. He's a guy who clearly loves the craft and takes genuine swings.
