Richard Linklater is one of my favourite directors. I wonder if he’ll ever create a follow up to the Before Trilogy?

Most underrated filmmaker of the last 30 years. Rick is a Hall of Fame American director and deserves to be recognized as such.

  Maybe he is not the most popular but he is quite respected, I wouldn’t say underrated.
