Yeah, but your 14 say a lot more about your taste than my 27.

Very nice to see Tarantino so low on my list. The top 3 is very unsurprising and not too far from the truth, though after that the results get a bit odd (Kurosawa isn't even in my top 40 directors! and I'd never rank Leone THAT high, even if I do like him a lot...). As with djross I would also have Malick sitting at the top of this list were it merely a 4 film limit (he's currently on an average score of 96.5 for me!)

1. Ingmar Bergman (6 films, 93.17 average score)
2. Hayao Miyazaki (9, 87.78)
3. Krzysztof Kieslowski (7, 86.57)
4. Paul Thomas Anderson (5, 86.00)
5. Sergio Leone (5, 84.4)
6. David Lynch (5, 83.8)
7. Akira Kurosawa (5, 83.2)
8. Stanley Kubrick (8, 82.13)
9. Joel and Ethan Coen (7, 79.57)
10. Stan Brakhage (17, 78.06)
11. Orson Welles (9, 77)
12. Alfred Hitchcock (7, 77)
13. Michael Haneke (6, 77)
14. Christopher Nolan (5, 76.2)
15. Chan-wook Park (6, 73.33)
16. Francis Ford Coppola (6, 71.17)
17. Jean-Luc Godard (7, 70.86)
18. Norman McLaren (11, 70.64)
19. Chuck Jones (8, 69.13)
20. Jim Jarmusch (5, 68.6)
21. Tim Burton (6, 67.83)
22. Martin Scorsese (17, 67.29)
23. Clint Eastwood (6, 67.17)
24. Steven Spielberg (9, 67.11)
25. Lars von Trier (6, 64.83)
26. Robert Zemeckis (5, 60.8)
27. Quentin Tarantino (5, 52.6)
