To be edgy I'd name drop Fellini or Kurosawa or Tarkovsky. The edgiest of edgelords love dropping Tarkovsky.
But for me, probably Spielberg or Scorsese, they both have a shit ton of films I've enjoyed. Though I've probably enjoyed more Spielberg films in total, as he's a more prolific director. The better films belong to Scorsese.
Quentin is a good to great director, at least I enjoy almost all his films, but **he's a a notorious shoplifter of ideas/scenes. Mind you, lots of directors borrow and are inspired by other directors. But Quentin straight up shoplifts.
Kubrick is a great director as well, but I can probably count on one hand the number of films of his I really like or love.
**That's just one video, youtube is littered with similar videos comparing Tarantino scenes to other scenes he clearly "borrowed" form
It should be a crime that Genndy Tarkovsky and Stan Sakai have not been put together to make the greatest thing since the Reese's Peanut Butter Cup.
Of course I'm talking a proper Usagi Yojimbo animated series.

I'd tell him that to his face, but I don't know where he's disappeared to.
Probably a name change I bet.

The Weird is nothing more than a copycat of J'onn J'onzz's power set. Anything Weird can do Martian Manhunter can do better.
Yes, I'm aware they fought. J'onzz jobbed.

Scorcesse is vastly overrated. All he really does is take liberal dogma and turn it into a film.
Take Taxi Driver. "Look pro gun reg nuts, see the crazy menial working white guy with a gun. Guns are baaaad."
