I wish to include Cameron but he has too little number of films to justify his inclusion. 

you said QT and he's made 9 movies (by QT rules) and Cameron has made 8 movies (also 9 if you include Ghosts of the Abyss), so is 9 the cutoff to being officially great?

How so? I think you really only need one, maybe two great movies.

James Cameron only had one films in the past 20 years, i.e. Avatar and QT has 6 films over the same period with many of those were box office success, Oscar-darling and fathom .

For me it's a tie between Fincher, Tarantino and PTA.

 

And I think it's 100% because they were the ones breaking out when I started getting really into movies. Seven, Pulp Fiction and Boogie Nights are among the first non-conventional movies I ever saw in my life. There's for sure other filmmakers older and more current that I adore just as much, but they don't have the same "I was there when it all began" feel for me.

That's tough. Especially since we all have different ideas.

 

My list, though, for now would probably include these gentlemen:

 

  • Wes Anderson
  • Coen Brothers
  • David Fincher
  • Christopher Nolan
  • Martin Scorsese
  • Steven Spielberg
  • Quentin Tarantino
  • Denis Villeneuve

i dunno, i've got a pretty strong argument against that one.

LOL. Imagine thinking Stanley Kubrick is dead. You honestly buy that BS?

Who do you think is producing all the footage and images that NASA releases to the public from "Mars"?

 

Sheep..
