While I'm not a Speilberg fan you have to give him Indiana Jones (well except Indiana Jones and the curse of the unnecessary sequel). Schindler's List is a brilliant film, as is Duel.

ET and Raiders of the Lost Ark were both awesome. And I see that you've conviniently left out his greatest works such as Schindler's List and Saving Private Ryan.

His movies may not appeal to you, but the bloke has been awarded 3 oscars for Christ's sake...he's certainly not a lame director.

My favorite is Peter Jackson. The LotR movies are quite epic and the King Kong remake was actually very good. Of course, I sort of hated Gimli's role as a comic relief character and that the beginning of King Kong was a drag. Still very good movies though.

Indeed opinions are opinions... my opinion is that QT is the worlds most popular plagiarist... That said, I do love Jackie Brown.

In all honesty, Michael Bay.

The man entertains me! That's all I ask for in films, is half naked women and **** getting blown sky-high. Don't get me wrong, I love Scorsese, Kubrick, Spielberg, Lucas, Tarantino and all those amazing directors. I just love Bay for the reason previously stated. Call him a guilty pleasure of mine :P

I agree, but then again I'm not the biggest Fight Club fan either. Most people I meet that like Pulp Fiction also really like Fight Club, but neither really appeals to me for some reason. And as for my favorite director....I've always been a Frank Capra fan.

Actually, too tough to choose one, there are so many amazing directors.

I don't really have an overall favourite (that would be too hard) but James Cameron is one of them.
Terminator, Terminator 2 and Aliens are 3 of my all-time favourite movies (which he not only directed but also wrote). Plus, he aided in the design of one of my favourite fictional creatures, the Predator.

Steven Spielberg directed Saving Private Ryan (and helped with Band of Brothers) and Ridley Scott directed Alien which are also high on my favourite movies list, and Band of Brothers is simply amazing.

There are too many talented directors out there, to be able to pick a single one.

I think Alien is far better than The Predator, both in terms of film quality and killing skills

:P

Joking, they're far too different to compare. But AVP was fun to watch, despite it being a crappy movie.

WOOT for Terry Gilliam and Danny Boyle : D

Although the only reason I watched 28 Days Later was for the immensely awesome soundtrack.

That's really hard for me to say. I'll just name two: Jean-Luc Godard and Stanley Kubrick.
