    I think David Fincher deserved at least an honorable mention. "Seven", "Fight Club" and "Gone girl" are masterpieces to me. "Panic room", "Zodiac" and "The girl with the dragon tattoo" are also worthy of note.

    Fun fact

    • @bryangarcia5599

      This is partially true. It wasn’t Miyazaki himself who hatched the plan and delivered the sword to Weinstein, however, but Studio Ghibli co-founder and producer Toshiro Suzuki. Furthermore, it wasn’t a ‘genuine katana’, but a highly detailed replica lacking a sharp edge, bought from a little shop underneath the train tracks between Shinbashi and Yūrakuchō in Tokyo, long known for supplying realistic-looking faux weaponry for use in samurai films. In other words, it was just a film prop (albeit one so expertly crafted that this would have become apparent only upon close inspection).

    I would say that one director who you could binge watch is Brad Bird. I know he only has 6 films in his filmography as a director. But when two of them are among the two best Pixar movies of all time in The Incredibles and Ratatouille that’s worthy of him being on the list. Even his worst movie Tomorrowland is still an enjoyable movie to watch. Another director that is worth bingeing is Guy Ritchie. Now his track record isn’t perfect he has had some flops like Swept Away and Revolver, but he does have some great films in his filmography like The Man From U.N.C.L.E. and Snatch.

Who can ever for get Poultrygeist, Tromeo and Juliet, or Class of Nukem High Part two. Yes, he can deal with deep social issues - such as the challenges of the mentally impaired in the Toxic Avenger Part IV. Lloyd is a brilliant director that can cast obscure international cultural norms as a main recurring film character (Sargent kobuki man). I encourage all to explore Troma and all its flix.

    I would have to go with Trey Parker (the South Park movie, Baseketball, Team America World Police, etc.), but those who like really really amateur acting might like Giuseppe Andrews; yeah, the teenager from Independence Day, who was in Detroit Rock City at age twenty and then started directing all these movies like Trailer Town, where he utilizes actors who were never trained, yet some of them have natural talent, and those who are not good at acting still bring comedy to the table. I started binge watching Giuseppe Andrews a few weeks ago, but there are so many that it might take quite a few sittings. I'm also considering binge watching Bob Clark. But still, not until Giuseppe Andrews did I ever think of organizing films by director, but now that's just a way of life for me.
