Spielberg vs. Hitchcock - The last verse of the Russians looks kinda bad these days. Also verse four isn't great and doesn't quite ring true to me.
Jobs vs. Gates - Yes, the final verse is weak, but Jobs just peacing out in the middle to "turn heaven a profit" is something that just can't be topped for me. Still, either winning would be fine by me.

Spielberg vs. Hitchcock
One of the few multi competitor matches I actually like. This one just works and feels like it makes sense to be a multi competitor for me and not "why did this person randomly show up"

Artists vs. TMNT
One is too long, one is too short. Ultimately Hal hurts Jobs vs Gates more than the short length hurts Artists vs TMNT but this is a battle of "man these are both really good but could be so much better" for me

As a multi-rapper vid I do agree that the directors makes sense and is top notch, and I even get why they end with a douche who is just about the money and not the art. The one thing that I have always felt was missing, for me personally, was Kurosawa. I know that those four minus Bay is somebody's Mount Rushmore of directors, but mine is not complete without Akira Kurosawa.

I mentioned before but I'm still hoping for a sequel someday with some of the other major directors

Wes Craven v John Carpenter w/ other horror pop culture icons of the previous couple decades like George Ramero, Jordan Peele and even Tim Burton would be so good

Craven/Carpenter/Romero/Peele would be dope, but Burton is more goth aesthetic than horror. I would want to insert Sam Raimi there instead. Evil Dead is the OG "cabin in the woods" horror story and he has never stopped evolving since, even if he has taken a few detours into super hero movies.

It's tempting to linger in this moment, while every possibility still exists. But unless collapsed by an observer, they will never be more than possibilities.

Two contrasting results! Spielberg/Hitchcock vs. Rasputin/Stalin was our most one-sided match yet. Despite the battles having the same amount of rappers, seems like people much prefer the directors.
Meanwhile, the tech guys just barely eked out a win by one vote against the mutant ninja turtles and fathers of the renaissance.

Spielberg vs. Hitchcock: 15
Rasputin vs. Stalin: 1

Jobs vs. Gates: 9
Artists vs. TMNT: 8
