Re: Which directors have you seen all their features?

Excluding tv directors:

100%
    Lee Unkrich - 4/4
    John Requa/Glenn Ficarra - 4/4
    Mike Birbiglia - 3/3 (one is a stand-up special)
    Scott Cooper - 3/3
    Samuel Armstrong - 3/3

90%
    Adam McKay - 9/10

86%
    Darren Aronofsky - 6/7

83%
    Quentin Tarantino - 10/12
    Todd Phillips - 10/12
    David Fincher - 10/12
    Phil Lord/Chris Miller - 5/6
    J.J. Abrams - 5/6

80%
    Matthew Vaughn - 4/5

Of the 100% club, I don't consider any of them to be particularly strong directors, though Unkrich and Cooper I consider to be good. The rest of my list are directors I consider to be between good and great. The majority of my favorite directors don't make the cut, weirdly enough. Part of the reason for the paradox is that I don't want to watch, for example, every Kurosawa movie right away and never have more to watch anew.

Re: Which directors have you seen all their features?

My own 100%s on the filmmaker page is quite an eclectic collection:

Lee Unkrich, 4/4 - With Pixar, co-director of Finding Nemo and a few others that I watched while I was much younger. Has another film with Pixar out later this year.
Naokatsu Tsuda, 3/3 - Anime director, helped create the excellent recent adaptation of Jojo's Bizarre Adventure. He's got some other work on IMDb, and may have only directed the first season of the anime, so this probably doesn't count. TV ratings are still new on here.
Ágnes Hranitzky, 3/3 - Wife of Bela Tarr and co-director on three of his films. Criticker doesn't credit them for their segment from Visions of Europe, so this is actually one short.
Coleman Francis, 3/3 - Legendarily terrible director, of The Beast of Yucca Flats and two others, all featured on MST3k. My average rating for his films is 9. 9/100. Yes, he lives up to his reputation.

Beyond them, the only other filmmakers I have above 80% are as follows:

Darren Aronofsky -86%, 6/7
Christopher Nolan - 83%, 10/12
J.J. Abrams - 83%, 5/6

All recent, frequently praised directors, so it makes sense they would be high on my completion percentages.
