Favourite Directors

[Misawa]

Who are your favourite directors, or screenwriters as well, and in many cases of course, writer-directors, and why?

I'll edit this later today with reasons for my choices, but as I must dash, I will just include the names for now.

- Quentin Tarantino
- Steven Spielberg
- Dario Argento
- Robert Rodriguez
- Lucio Fulci
- Alfred Hitchcock
- Frank Darabont

i don't care about directors, i watch a film to enjoy it and for the storyline

who really gives a crap who's behind the scenes :S

That is about the most rediculous thing I have ever read. Just about everyone with an I.Q. of above 30 has an opinion of directors, and are partial to the work of particular ones. Directors wouldn't have a following if "no one cared about what happens behind the scenes". :rolleyes:

[Stephen!]

Michael Bay
George Lucas
Ste' Spe'
Paul W.S. Anderson

[Joshuae]

Quentin Tarantino
Robert Rodrigues
Michael Bay
Steven Speil.

Peter Jackson, Steven Spielberg and Clint Eastwood.

Alfred Hitchcock, Stanley Kubrick and Satoshi Kon were/are also amazing director's.

Oh yeah throw the patronising crap at me because I don't really care about the makings of films. I don't watch a particular film just because one director has made it, I'm not obsessive like that.

And don't even try getting patronisingly ****** as me, because to be perfectly honest this is a FORUM where people express their opinions and if you don't agree then you're free to state that but saying crap like OOOH U HAV AN IQ UNDA 30!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! is just plain out of order..

Stephen Spielburg - Especially with Saving Private Ryan.
Peter Jackson - LOTR
George Lucas
Tim Burton - Sweeney Todd

100% Agreed. You don't have to like the director to like the film. So really, it doesn't matter who directs it as long as it's a good movie.

Stevey Speil, Peter Jackson come to mind.

Oh and the dude who did Cloverfield, AA Abrahams I think
