How can you have a favourite director? They dont make the story to a film? all they do is tell people how to act, and tell CGI people how to do something. For instance tarintino, he hasnt done anything special. Peter Jackson did quite a good job with LOTR but its the story line designers that count not the directors.

Aside from the fact that some directors do indeed write the story, directing isnt that cut and dry.
Its a bit more difficult then it sounds to pass what is on paper into film.

yeah
Most films are written by the director, or adapted a novel, or possibly someone elses screenplay

Some directors do actually write their own stories tho they sometimes don't... but still, you have to wonder why people credit the directors instead of the scriptwriters or something, yeah?

My all time fave is definitly Danny Boyle! Trainspotting is my all time fave film.
I also like;
Julien Temple- Fith and the fury, great rock and roll swindle
Quentin Tarrantino- KILL BILL 1 AND 2, Pulp fiction (amazing film) Jackie brown, and resivoir dogs.
Don Letts- the punk rock movie.
and others i'll save for later.
