Jesus Franco avg 57.36 (T4) 36 films

Steven Spielberg avg 58.38 (T4) 16 films
Woo-ping Yuen avg 79.93 (T9) 14 films
Lucio Fulci avg 64.58 (T6) 12 films

John Landis avg 60.42 (T5) 12 films
Richard Donner avg 52.27 (T4) 11 films
George A. Romero avg 68.09 (T7) 11 films
Wes Craven avg 46.82 (T3) 11 films

Dominated by smut, gore and kung fu. Yup, that reveals a lot about me. 8-)

This was my list in 2012, let's update it.

Jesús Franco 57.00 40 films
Takashi Miike 74.74 19 films
Kenji Misumi 78.75 16 films
Steven Spielberg 58.38 16 films
Kinji Fukasaku 78.93 14 films
Woo-ping Yuen 79.93 14 films
Chia-Liang Liu 88.62 13 films
Terry Gilliam 76.54 13 films
Lucio Fulci 62.69 13 films
John Landis 58.08 13 films

That's right, I haven't watched a single new film directed by Spielberg (meh) or Yuen Woo-ping (need to remedy that) in nearly 7 years. Misumi and Fukasaku the only new additions to the list, mainly because I finally got around to watching all the Zatoichi and Yakuza Papers films.
