Yeah I would have mentioned empire strikes back as well along with new hope but Lucas didnt direct Empire and I also would have mentioned Batman Begins and The Dark Knight by Nolan but he hasnt made many films yet is the ONLY reason I left him out but he has made at least a handful so I for sure need to mention him and those films as well.
