More than 5, I know. Sorry. : )

I would add Mel Gibson to the list.

Don't think it'll be long before Denis Villeneuve and Christopher Nolan are listed among the greatest ever. Taylor Sheridan as well if he keeps directing his own phenomenal writing.

^ Denis Villeneuve

Yeah, definitely. I would definitely add him.

Alex Garland is showing great potential, too. Ex Machina is great, but I had mixed feelings toward Annihilation. So we'll see how his career goes..

Hitchcock and Scorsese should be on every single list, IMO.

James Cameron
Ridley Scott
Steven Spielberg
Kubrick

Stanley Kubrick (the best)
Quentin Tarantino
Martin Scorsese

Guys like Spielberg and Ridley Scott are great and have made some phenomenal films, but they've also made some real stinkers which drags them down quite a bit IMO.
