Steven Speilberg
Quentin Tarantino

Christopher Nolan

Robert Rodriguez
Sam Raimi
Peter Jackson (though I haven't seen anything pre-LOTR)
 
should check out The Frightners then for Peter Jackson.
 
My Favorites:

1. Sergio Leone
2. Akira Kurosawa
3. Martin Scorsese
4. Quentin Tarantino
5. John Woo
6. Coen Brothers
7. Sam Peckinpah
8. Alfred Hitchcock
9. Brian DePalma

In no particular order:
Speilberg (Indiana Jones, Schindler's List, Terminal)
Raimi (Spider-man, Evil Dead)
Hitchcock (Psycho, Vertigo)
Campbell (Goldeneye, Mark of Zorro, Casino Royale)
Synder (Dawn of Dead remake)
Donner (Superman, Goonies, Lethal Weapon)
Nolan (Momento, Imsonia, Batman Begins)
Rodreguez (El Mariachi series)
 
I'd have to say Tarantino but Spielberg may take top spot after TRANSFORMERS, even though he is only producing it.

Carpenter: Halloween, The Thing, The Fog.
Burton: Edward Scissorhands, Beetlejuice, Both of his Batman films, and although he didn't direct it, The Nightmare Before Christmas.
Cameron: T2, The Abyss, Aliens, The Terminator.
