If your DVD Aficionado list is up-to-date then all you need to do is stick "&dir=alfred+hitchcock" (without the quotation marks and don't sign into your account!) after your list address to search for your listing by a particular director.

So your list address is:

http://www.dvdaficionado.com/dvds.html?id=laseractive

and so for Hitchcock:

http://www.dvdaficionado.com/dvds.ht...fred+hitchcock

and the others:

http://www.dvdaficionado.com/dvds.ht...akira+kurosawa

http://www.dvdaficionado.com/dvds.ht...dir=mel+brooks


It's saves having to spend ages going through your entire collection trying to keep count of how many listings/titles you have by each director .

I'm pretty much guessing here, by just perusing my list and knowing which ones I have multiple movies by, but here is what I can figure. Depending on if we are going by number of movies or DVDs, my top 3 goes George A Romero, Kevin Smith, Sam Raimi for movies or Kevin Smith, George A Romero + Sam Raimi tied for DVDs.
Kevin Smith (7 movies, 9 DVDs)
Clerks (orig & X)
Mallrats (orig and 10th)
Chasing Amy
Dogma
Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back
Jersey Girl
Jay and Silent Bob Do Degrassi
George A Romero (9 movies, 8 DVDs)
Night of the Living Dead
Dawn of the Dead
Day of the Dead
Land of the Dead
Martin
Season of the Witch / Jack's Wife
Creepshow
Bruiser
Sam Raimi (6 movies, 8 DVDs)
Darkman
Evil Dead (BOTD & Elite)
Evil Dead 2 (BOTD & Tin
Army of Darkness
Spider-man
Spider-man 2

Honorable Mentions:
Peter Jackson (5)
Bad Taste
Dead Alive
Frighteners
Heavenly Creatures
Meet the Feebles
Quentin Tarantino (4)
Kill Bill Vol 1
Kill Bill Vol 2
Reservior Dogs
Pulp Fiction
