Ang Lee. For action classic Crouching Tiger, superb erotic spy thriller Lust Caution, and heart-rending drama Eat Drink Man Woman. ETA: Just saw he won. But wanted to throw a vote in anyway.

 

[dude stannis]

Check out Ride with the Devil.

I've seen bits of that, I never knew he directed it.

The only full Ang film's I've seen are Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, which is amazing, and Hulk, which I don't care for at all.

My favorite Lee film is "Sense and Sensibility".

 

[flickchick85]

I love them both, but Alfonso Cuaron. He's an all-time favorite for me.

 

[DarthSkywalker]

This one is actually hard. I am a big fan of both. But I will go with Christopher Nolan, because he made Memento, and Cuaron made me sit through way too much Sandra Bullock.

 

[KRYPTON INC.]

This is also quite tough. For all the praise Nolan gets, he really does simply make cracker jack blockbusters, where Cuaron has a more artistic bent... Still... WHAT BLOCKBUSTERS. I have to give this to NOLAN and his master craftsmanship.

 

[DarkSovereignty]

Alfonso Cuaron. My apologies to Mr. Nolan-senpai

 

[childeroland]

Nolan, mostly for The Prestige.

 

[dude stannis]

Alfonso Cuaron. Children of Men alone is one of the greatest things to come from cinema.

 

[Snow Queen]

Chris Nolan.

 

[Serpico Jones]

Christopher Nolan.

 

[CGNefarious]

Christopher Nolan. Both great directors, but I'd be lying if I said I didn't enjoy far more of Nolan's work.

 

[RadioSha]

Nolan.

In Nolan We Trust

 

[Black Narcissus]

I was not expecting for Nolan to be winning so easily. Hmm.

 

[DarthSkywalker]

I was not expecting for Nolan to be winning so easily. Hmm.

Have you never visited the Bat boards?

 

[KRYPTON INC.]

I was not expecting for Nolan to be winning so easily. Hmm.

Not all of Cuaron's films are as accessible as Gravity or the Potter film. Nolan does have a wider appeal. I get why he would do so good.

 

[DarthSkywalker]

If he hadn't made Gravity, I would have given it to Cuaron. But man does that film bother me.

 

[Black Narcissus]

Keep voting, folks.

 

[Spider-Aziz]

Chris Nolan.

 

[Wheels]

Nolan

 

[DarthSkywalker]

Nolan one away, correct?

 

[Black Narcissus]

Nolan is one vote away from winning. Just need Ollie to come in here and deliver the final blow, you bastards.
