Gone Gonzo  Posts: 4498 Joined: 10 Feb 2008  | Quentin Tarantino tops my list. Only Tarantino can make a conversation about McDonalds food seem incredibly awesome. Close seconds are Robert Rodriguez, Tim Burton and Peter Jackson. |

This. James Cameron is my favorite, and J.J. Arbams is damn good. ALos Paul Verhoeven, Ridley Scott, Kevin Smith, and Steven Spielburg. George Lucas gets an honorable mention. |
Gone Gonzo  Posts: 1816 Joined: 15 May 2008    | Most definitely Tim Burton. I love what J.J Abrams did to Star Trek, and George Lucas; Original Trilogy. |

I've been on a kick of his films lately, I'd only seen a few but I got on a roll. The man is to anime what Pixar is to 3D. |

But I do love a bit of the Coen Brothers, Tarantino and Pedro Almodovar I hate Tim Burton though. The only film he's directed that I've enjoyed is Edward Scissorhands and I guess Sleepy Hollow was alright. |

I'm guessing you mean Irvin Kershner, but Lucas didn't direct RotJ either. |

Yeah, Tarkovsky is possibly my favourite too. "Stalker" is very good, but "Mirror" and "Andrei Rublev" especially are my favourites. I'd also add Ozu, Bergman and Mizoguchi to that. |

You're aware he didn't actually direct Nightmare before Christmas? |

Damn your right. Somehow got it into my head that they were made by the same guy. They are kinda similar in many ways. |

You need to say 2001: A Space Odyssey, Barry Lyndon, Eyes Wide Shut... There's no one quite like Kubrick. *swoons* |

Mine would have to be Tim Burton. I just love the way he can take a completely random, messed up plot that could scar people and turn it into something so fun and querky (see Corpse Bride and The Nightmare Before Christmas).
I also have to mention Quentin Tarantino for writing and directing my favourite movie of all time, Inglourious Basterds
