So directors who are pussies and don't wanna look like morons use this name? Man grow some balls! No one is perfect.
-
I've read that there are some new pseudonyms that have been approved of by the Director's Guild since Alan Smithee was discontinued in 2000, and therefore are in use right now when the actual director wants to disown a movie, but for obvious reasons the movie industry isn't telling everyone what they are. It will be interesting for all of us movie fans in the coming years to try to figure out what they are!

@NortonFord it's "the alias men"

I always wondered what a dude actually named Alan Smithee who loved cinema would feel about the choice name given to hack movies lol...He'd probably kill himself, er, change his name I mean :)
-
which explains why all of his movies blow... fuckin hellraiser in cyberspace and whatnot.

It's not an anagram. It began as a modification of "Al Smith" but became too well-known outside the movie industry, and was discontinued in 2000.

Putting the name "Alan Smithee" on your film is basically the same with leaving a child on a stranger's doorstep.

Yep. If a director needs to make a house or boat payment, they'll take a crap job for the check and then list themselves as Alan Smithee in the credits to keep the work off their resume. Kinda the same thing as mainstream authors that write "romance" novels when they're not working on a real project. A lot of SciFi writers in the 70's and 80's were also writing "romance" novels. :-D
