Re: 10 highest scoring new/contemporary directors
My movie watching has really fallen off, so my newer directors are ones with their feature debut in 1996 -- my median year (that's only 28 years, ago. right?) -- or later (with avg percentile and count):
1. Alexander Payne: 84.33 (3)
2. Jason Reitman: 81.33 (3)
3. Brad Bird: 76 (3)
4. Rian Johnson: 74.33 (3)
5. Byron Howard: 74.33 (3)
6. Guy Ritchie: 71.33 (3)
7. Lee Unkrich: 70 (4)
8. Joss $@&@# Whedon: 69 (3)
9. Christopher Nolan: 68.125 (8)
10. Wes Anderson: 65.67 (3)
Probably a reflection of how much Disney rules my world these days. None of this is surprising, except maybe how close some of these guys (and, they are all "guys") to the cutoff date.
