Do you like him?

I think he's a great director. Two of my fovourite movies were directed by him: Before Sunrise and Before Sunset... I like the second one better.
He also directed School of rock, and Waking Life. I like School of rock, and I have Waking life to see... just because I love the team Linklater-Delpy-Hawke.

...

What do you think?

I enjoy his work, he tends to be a toss up for a lot of people as the whole dialogue driven movie can polarize people, I'm a big fan of it though.

before sunrise is a real nice piece of work. nice, unobtrusive, long takes to let you just sit back and watch the film. i've not seen before sunset, though.

Dazed and Confused is fun, I like it alright. I REALLY dig Waking Life. Slackers is OK too. I don't know if I've seen the others.

I think it's even better...
...the dialogues are much deeper now that they are older., and they see each other after long long time, what maked the whole thing even better.
I like ir better than the first one -just alittle, both are fantastic-

I didn't like Dazed and Confused the second time I saw it, just did not do it for me anymore, that damn kid just drove me crazy, horrible actor.

I love Waking Life.
Before Sunrise is excellent, also. Need to see the sequel.

My sister went out with that guy (Wiley Wiggins) for a few weeks, no kidding.

I love Linklater, he's never made a bad film. Even his more mainstream movies like School of Rock are great.

Waking Life is an amazing movie.

Really makes you contemplate things.

I would never recommend using drugs,

however, I recommend using drugs while viewing this film. :D

Funny, Waking Life is the only movie of his I cannot stand. I love him as a director though, and I can't wait for a Scanner Darkly.
