I never heard the George Lucas rape story. Unless you're repeating the old trope about how he raped your childhoods.

^ So you were sitting in a theater, halfway through Sharkboy and Lavagirl and you said to yourself, "I just need to see everything this man makes from here on out!"

Tarantino, del Toro and Wes Anderson are probably the only three I'll see no matter what. Nolan might be joining that list.

There are directors I really like, but don't feel the need to see everything by them. Most of them have been named in this thread.

Ben Affleck - I know, I know, but he is 3 out of 3 and hasn't steered me wrong yet, and it looks like his next several projects are right up my alley (Live By Night, Bunker Hill, Untitled Africa Movie)

I don't think there is anything wrong with choosing Affleck. Guy is pretty open to variation in his picks for directing so far. Seems to be getting bolder and better with his direction. That's pretty exciting to see. Also... He's a solid actor now. Even better if he directs himself.

Nothing wrong at all and I too would see anything he puts out.
