Of the top of me brain:

Jeunet and Caro - they did Delicatessin and City of Lost Children

Wes Anderson- Bottle Rocket and Rushmore

Tim Burton- Edward Scissorhands and Peewee's Big Adventure are on my list of all time favorite movies

there's more, but i'm too tired.

Well, I'd have to do three of them

Kevin Smith: View Askew, responsible for Clerks, Mallrats, Chasing Amy, Dogma, and Jay and Silent Bob strike back

The Coen Brothers: Responsible for Raising Arizona, The Big Lebowski, Oh Brother Where Art Thou, Fargo, and Blood Simple

Chiodo Brothers: Responisble for Killer Clowns from Outer Space

Note, that pic was not Darren Aronofsky, that is the main character from Pi... but you already knew that.

Terry Gilliam, he's whacked.

What do you expect from a former Monty Python guy?

Kevin Smith, YES!

I think Tim Burton is a great director if he gets it right.

Right: Batman, Batman Returns, Sleepy Hollow, Pee Wee's Big Adventure, Edward Scissorhands, Ed Wood, Beetlejuice

Wrong: Planet of the Apes, Mars Attack!, A Nightmare Before Christmas (I know, he produced it, but it's been awhile seen I've last seen it but I remember I didn't like it when I saw it.)

they're awesome, they are TOTALLY writer's kidna directors, like teh cohen brothers, who by the way, RULE as well

those are his slick movies, but now he's like poor johnny one-note, all his movies look the same. He's totally abstardizing his own style at this point, doing these arch-hollywood blockbsuter type ofs cripts but putting a burton looka round it. He tasted the BIG money with batman and now he forgets how to progress as ana rtist I think. His old flicks are killer though. I eman, even beetleguice, he was bringing home the weirdness in UNEXPECTED ways. And edward scissorhands? what a great flick. Like many of the stories he devised hismelf, tis totally about him. He's a guy dressed in balck in a big pastel 50s suburban world. He can hurt people when all he wants to do is hold them. Its pretty brilliant. Likewise nightmare ebfore christmas is a emtaphor for hsia ttempt to fit into the disney system and the subsequent disaster that followed. He just ahd tos tick with halloween! He's the pumpkin king dammit.

wheeew

Quentin Tarantino !
Watch my crappy new movie ( go to my profile and then to "Strange LAwyer"!)

Please...don't attribute X-Men and Replacement Killers to Woo. He did neither - although he produced RK.

The Cohen Brothers are good. Jackie Chan of course (yes, he directs)...Tim Burton, Kevin Smith, a whole lot more. I hate making extensive lists because I always leave somebody out who really should have been there. If I make a short list it's pretty much a given that I'll leave people out. It helps me sleep at night...
