To try to sum it up:It sounds like you and I agree that great art can come as comedy, adventure or drama. Bergman makes his art best through drama; Woody makes his art best through comedy. That was what I was trying to say on Woody Allen and comedy. Similarly, I think Spielberg makes his art best through adventure.
You and I disagree on two things, I think.
One, whether Spielberg's films come out of a personal passion like Woody's obviously do. Here, I think yes: in many of his films, Spielberg explores discovery, wonder and awe in the way that Woody explores adult relationships in many of his. (Woody once said in response to Spielberg's comment that he makes the films he wanted to see as a kid, I make the films that I want to see as an adult.)
Second, whether Spielberg hits the emotional "oomph" that, say, Bergman or Woody do with their good films. Here, it's really a matter of personal taste.
