I would have to look up everybody's filmography to find that out and I just ain't got the time. :)

 

Even though there are exceptions (Spielberg, Tarantino, Smith, Gibson, Bay, some of the Korean guys etc) where for whatever reason, be it skill, infamy or just the fact their name always appears in big black writing above a film, I can associate a film with it's director, I often never know who directed what.

 

Is it bad to admit that here?

 

Honestly, even in my top 100 films list from a while back, I probably don't know the director of half of them off the top of my head. :(
