Favourite filmmakers

I was thinking a bit about this today, came into the COR and saw the thread about Slumdog Millionaire (great movie too).

Who are the filmmakers you just love? The people that as soon as you see their name attached to a film you know its going to be quality.

For me:
Clint Eastwood
Ron Howard
Danny Boyle

Seeing those 3 as directors of movies definitely makes them must watchs for me.

I have to agree with you on Ron Howard (A Beautiful Mind and Cinderella Man ) and Danny Boyle. Really good at what they do. I also like Steven Spielberg generally, but not everything. Schindler's List was one of his greatest works imho. Also James Cameron for The Abyss.

Danny Boyle : I wasn't too impressed with 'Sunshine', but the rest of his work has been pretty impressive.

Love some of Tarantino's and Ron Howard's work (Apollo 13).

Honorable mention to Charlie Kaufman, who's actually a screenwriter, but I feel that he should be credited more than the guys who actually made the corresponding movies.

It's become a little cliche to drool over Tarantino's work I know, but I just love his style and the way he tells a story. He is among the main reasons I want to get into the film industry. I'd say Pulp Fiction is my favorite movie.

Brian De Palma does it for me as well. Even his movies many consider to be 'bad' I end up enjoying a lot. Mission to Mars is definitely one of those...most people hate it, but I think its a beautiful picture. Then of course there's Scarface and The Untouchables, both great pieces of cinema. I also enjoyed Snake Eyes with Nic Cage.

The Wachowski Brothers are awesome, I'm a sucker for the entire Matrix trilogy, so I have to give them props for creating a thought-provoking movie that also became a cultural phenomenon.

Steven Soderbergh is great, he has a very indie style, yet exerts it upon bigger budgeted pictures, such as the Ocean series, etc.

And Chris Nolan really has impressed. Memento is the shit, and the Dark Knight blew everybody away while also becoming the second highest grossing picture in history.
