Mine are

James Cameron
Spielberg
Lucas
Tarantino

in that order.

I must add that after seeing Inglourious Basterds that my respect for Tarantino shot up a million fold.
This guy is a true master.

Steven Spielberg is my top favorite director because of those fiction movies he direct. I love fiction movies

**davidmort** · 01-28-2010, 05:41 AM

I think Spielberg and Cameron, but I didn't like his last Avatar so much. I didn't catch it at all.

**edgray** · 01-28-2010, 06:40 AM

David Fincher
David Lynch.
Michel Gondry

These guys make works of art, everyone else just points a camera and shouts "action".

**Blake123** · 01-28-2010, 09:31 AM

I would vote for Stanely Kubrick, then Speilberg, and of couse Tarantino, they are really geniouses!

Because that was so clever? When someone doesn't agree with you, intelligent people start a debate, ask questions and try to counter them, not just spit their dummy out of the pram like you just have. That's very bad forum etiquette there. Be polite in future.

Just my personal opinion. I find most movies incredibly disappointing. The really big directors - Spielberg, Tarantino etc do nothing creative with the way they shoot their movies. Watch films like Fight Club to see how interesting and creative films can be made. They've all had occasional moments, but really, they're not artists.
