3 directors most represented in your collection?
I have collection of less than 100, but the directors most represented are:
First place: Steven Speilberg (5) Catch Me If You Can Jaws Minority Report Munich Schindler's List Tied for Second: Peter Jackson (4) King Kong The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring (Theatrical + Extended Editions) The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers (Theatrical + Extended Editions) The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King (Theatrical + Extended Editions) Not sure if Peter Jackson should count as 7 or as 4, as technically there are seven DVD releases Quentin Tarantino (4) Kill Bill Vol. I Kill Bill Vol. II Pulp Fiction Reservoir Dogs Quentin Tarantino is credited as a guest director for Sin City, but I did not count this Francis Ford Coppola (4) Apocalypse Now Redux The Godfather The Godfather: Part II The Godfather: Part III Martin Scorsese (4) The Aviator Gangs of New York Goodfellas Raging Bull George Lucas (4) Star Wars Episode I: The Phantom Menace Star Wars Episode II: Attack of the Clones Star Wars Episode III: Revenge of the Sith Star Wars Episode IV: A New Hope Third: Clint Eastwood (3) Million Dollar Baby Mystic River Unforgiven EDIT: Came to realisation that George Lucas did not direct Episodes V and VI, so that takes his films from 6 (1st place) to 4 (tied second) |
DVD Spot shows Kevin Dunn in 1st place with 18. He directs wrestling videos though so we won't count him.
John Carpenter with 16, followed by Richard Donner, Clint Eastwood and Stephen Spielberg with 14 each. Wes Craven follows them with 13. |
