Favourite director?

Mine has to be Steven Spielberg, he has made sooo many good movies and series. The list goes on and on .

Akira Kurosawa (Seven Samurai, Yojimbo, Throne of Blood etc.) would be my choice for first place, followed closely by Martin Scorsese.

I completely agree

I'd also add in Tarantino, David Lynch, & Hayao Miyazaki

Martin Scorsese.

Tarantino, Coen Brothers, Sergio Leone, Scorsese... many more.

I would have to go with Spielberg as well it would have Cameron but he's gone down since I saw Avatar.

Peter Jackson.

Scorsese, Coen Brothers, Farrelly brothers

Hayao Miyazaki and Quentin Tarantino tie for top, IMO.
Then Francis Ford Coppola and Stanley Kubrick tie for second.
And then Steven Spielberg, Akira Kurosawa, Martin Scorsese, Walt Disney, and Michael Bay. In that order.

Note: favourite does not mean "the best". Michael Bay isn't a "great" director, but his movies are ing fun to watch.

Uwe Boll hes the man lol

Jean-Pierre Jeunet and Ridley Scott.

This is what sarcasm looks like kids.

Tomino Yoshiyuki..... Mobile Suit Gundam, Zeta Gundam, Gundam F91, Victory Gundam, Turn A Gundam, creator of the best Scifi Universe ever. Gundam Unicorn just came out based a few years after Tomino's Movie Char's Counter Attack, it is an amazing piece of work despite not directed by him but does justice to the Universe he Created.

Yep it checks out. Sarcasm.

Stanley Kubrick is hands down my favorite, then in no particular: Hayao Miyazaki, Cohen Brothers, Martin Scorsese, Ridley Scott, and Alfred Hitchcock. oh and Guillermo del Toro.

Stanley Kubrick.

Coppola by far.

My favorite film directors and my favorite films by them:

Christopher Nolan (Memento, Insomnia)
David Fincher (Seven, Fight Club, Zodiac)
Stanley Kubrick (Clockwork Orange, Barry Lyndon, Eyes Wide Shut)
Oliver Stone (Salvador, Platoon, Wall Street, JFK, Nixon)
John Carpenter (Assault on Precinct 13, Escape from New York, The Thing, Big Trouble in Little China)

Christopher Nolan is very talented.

John Ford, Clint Eastwood, Sergio Leone, Sam Peckinpah. I do love me westerns and these are masters of their trade. I mean, the train station sequence in 'Once Upon a Time in the West' was just beautiful, as is the shoot out sequence at the start of 'The Wild Bunch' and I believe that 'Unforgiven' is an example of a perfectly made film.
