Re: Top 5 Director Averages

Minimum 3 films:

1. Sam Wood 9.40 (5)
2. Abdellatif Kechiche 9.33 (3)
3. Mark Sandrich 9.00 (5)
4. Milos Forman 9.00 (4)
5. Tom Tykwer 9.00 (3)

Minimum 10 films:

1. Federico Fellini 8.58 (12)
2. Alfred Hitchcock 8.51 (41)
3. Robert Wise 8.40 (10)
4. David Lean 8.20 (10)
5. Billy Wilder 8.17 (18)
6. Stanley Kubrick 8.08 (12)
7. William Wyler 8.08 (13)
8. Brian De Palma 8.00 (12)
9. Pedro Almodóvar 7.94 (16)
10. Lars von Trier 7.82 (11)
= Ken Loach 7.82 (11)

Hitchock's average went down a little by seeing his lesser known films, so I think he's the real number 1.

74.86 federico fellini (7)
73.20 ethan & joel coen (10)

this is very similar to my personal list of top ten directors, but i'd substitute tarkovsky & fellini for lynch & polanski.

Re: Top 5 Director Averages

I will post some averages, then I get 5 of them to the TOP.
Stanley Kubrick - 79.29 [7 movies]
Ingmar Bergman - 88.57 [7 movies]
Jean-Luc Godard - 81.65 [Hail Mary got the averages down.] [3 movies]
Billy Wilder - 86.67 [6 movies]
Kon Ichikawa - 90 [2 movies]
Nicholas Ray - 87.65 [2 movies]
David Lynch - 81.25 [4 movies]
Howard Hawks - 85 [2 movies]
Orson Welles - 90 [2 movies]
Alfred Hitchcock - 79.23 [13 movies]
Milos Forman - 80 [3 movies]
Paul Thomas Anderson - 80 [4 movies]
David Lean - 90 [2 movies]
Lars Von Trier - 80 [I removed from the count Nocturne, because it's a short one] [5 movies]
Dario Argento - 79 [5 movies]
Charles Chaplin - 79.25 [7 movies]
Sam Peckinpah - 87.25 [2 movies]
Akira Kurosawa - 85 [5 movies]

I put above all the directors who had at least one movie above 90 [a masterpiece] AND that I saw at least 2 movies.
Another directors that have good averages [75-100]:
Mario Bava - 82.5 [2 movies]
Michale Haneke - 81.25 [4 movies]
Samuel Fuller - 78.33 [3 movies]
Buster Keaton - 81.25 [4 movies]
F. F. Coppola - 83.33 [3 movies]
Sergio Leone - 76.25 [4 movies]
John Ford - 82.5 [2 movies]
Woody Allen - 76.88 [8 movies]
Alain Resnais - 81.25 [4 movies]
So, my TOP Average Directors, counting only the directors which I saw 3 movies or more, are:
1 – Ingmar Bergman
2 – Billy Wilder
3 – Akira Kurosawa
4 – Francis Ford Coppola
5 – Jean-Luc Godard
6 – Resnais, Keaton, Lynch and Haneke
7 – Lars Von Trier and Milos Forman
8 – Stanley Kubrick
9 – Charles Chaplin
10 – Alfred Hitchcock

My TOP Directors are:
1 – Ingmar Bergman
2 – Billy Wilder
3 – Akira Kurosawa
4 – Alfred Hitchcock
5 – Stanley Kubrick
6 – Dario Argento
7 – Jean-Luc Godard
8 – Michael Haneke
9 – David Lynch
10 – Charles Chaplin

I'm surpirised with Coppola, that appeared in fourth on the first list, bur I don't like him so mcuh.

Re: Top 5 Director Averages

Of those directors with at least one tier 10 film and at least four films seen in total, these are the highest averages:

Akira Kurosawa 92.95 (4 films)
Stanley Kubrick 90.43 (7)
Michael Haneke 87 (4)
Ingmar Bergman 85.85 (13)
Andrei Tarkovsky 85.67 (6)
--
Billy Wilder 84.4 (5)
Lars von Trier 83.5 (4)
Francis Ford Coppola 82.8 (5)
Buster Keaton 82.8 (5)
Orson Welles 82.71 (7)
Howard Hawks 81.4 (5)
Werner Herzog 79.8 (5)
Joel & Ethan Coen 79.2 (10ish)
Alfred Hitchcock 77.85 (13)
Martin Scorsese 74.71 (7)
Jean-Luc Godard 73.27 (11)
David Lynch 61.38 (13)

Shorts have obviously had a big effect on these rankings, and there are a lot of directors waiting for me to watch a fourth film. So this is a definite '...to be continued'
