Thomas did decent work with Private Parts but that's about it.

Kind of surprised at Miller getting killed off so easily even though I think his only truly standout work is the first two Mad Max films.

The Mad Max films were fine enough, but can't make up for Babe or Eastwick.  Frankly, I've yet to see any movie by Wilde, so I'm not voting either way for him.  Of the other three, I disliked Jackson's "Rings" movies but liked his works like Dead Alive, Meet The Feebles and Frighteners.  Thomas did a great movie with Private Parts, and Brady Bunch was a good 'spoof' like movie of the show.  I'm biased to Smith, as I love his films.

If you're going to watch a film by Wilde, go for The Naked Prey----it's a great one IMO. No Blade of Grass is an interesting dystopian vision of the future too.
