Both have had some really bad movies, however, so....can't really place them at the top of the list. Oliver Stone's up there....as is Sophia Coppola and her dad, Martin Scorsese, David Lynch, Mel Gibson, and Michael Gondry, to name a few. Can't pick a favorite, though.

Hoogs 6 years 10 months ago Posts: 232	Even though it's cliche, I'm gonna have to go with Steven Spielberg. Most of my favorite movies were directed by him.

Sure he has good movies, but he has an equal amount of movies that are just terrible. Good directors: Speilberg Martin Scorsese Coen Brothers Stanley Kubrick David Fincher Mel Gibson Francis Ford Coppola Peter Jackson Quentin Tarantino Robert Robriquez David Lynch Chris Nolan Terry Gilliam

I haven't see Brain Damage in over 15 years. I only remember bits and pieces. From what I do remember it was messed up. Henelotter did the Basket Case films too, right?

ghiti 6 years 10 months ago Posts: 447	Ralph Bakshi, I would automatically see a film of his if he made another. And John Waters, I would love to see a new movie from him. Richard Linklater directed some great films as well.
