Anyways, my own list doesn't do a great job of showing off my favorites. Ignoring directors who only made animated shorts, I have;

1. Spielberg, 17 movies, 55.12
2. John Landis, 10 movies, 63.80
3. John Woo, 10 movies, 62.90
4. Francis Ford Coppola, 10 movies, 60.70
5. Tim Burton, 9 movies, 67.44 (high rating because I have watched so little of his post-95' trash)
6. Robert Rodriguez, 9 movies, 60.78
7. Richad Donner, 9 movies, 60.11
8. Ron Howard, 9 movies, 49.11 (only T4 or lower...)
9. Sammo Hung 8 movies, 72.88 (highest rating)
10. Joel and Ethan Coen, 8 movies, 70.75 (second highest rating)
Almost 9 years later, we have

1. Spielberg, 17 movies, 55.6 (doubt I will watching anything more he has made)
2. John Landis, 11 movies, 61.5
3. Ron Howard, 11 movies, 43.5 (awful average, by far the lowest of my list. Utterly shameless hack nowadays)
4. Tim Burton, 11 movies, 67.7 (I was unfair to him above; I watched two of his post-95' movies, Sleepy Hollow and The Corpse Bride, and both were pretty good, getting scores of 69 each)
5. Joel and Ethan Coen, 10 movies, 71.7 (highest average not counting kung-fu, continues to go up)
6. John Woo, 10 movies, 62.9
7. Sammo Hung, 9 movies, 73.4 (highest average)
8. Francis Ford Coppola, 9 movies, 60.4
9. Clint Eastwood, 9 movies, 61.0
10. Richard Donner, 9 movies, 60.0
11. Walter Hill, 9 movies, 61.2
12. Robert Rodriguez, 9 movies, 60.8

Buster Keaton - 26 films at 3.8 avg
Johnnie To - 19 films at 4.4 avg (+1 unrated)
Alfred Hitchcock - 17 films at 4.8 avg (+3 unrated)
Werner Herzog - 17 films at 4.1 avg (+1 unrated)
Coen Brothers - 15 films at 4.9 avg (+3 unrated)
Steven Soderbergh - 15 films at 3.1 avg (+1 unrated)
Steven Spielberg - 15 films at 3.2 avg (+5 unrated)
Martin Scorsese - 13 films at 5.1 avg (+2 unrated)
D.W. Griffith - 13 films at 3.9 avg (+1 unrated)
Sion Sono - 12 films at 4.3 avg
John Huston - 12 films at 3.9 avg

if a film's unrated it means i don't remember it well enough to rate it. scale is currently 1-8. why the hell can't we view by percentile anymore? the filmmaker list seems inferior in general to how it used to be.

filmmakers i expect to pop up on this list in the near future are mike leigh (currently 10), hong sang-soo (currently 10) and abel ferrara (currently 9).

Jean-Luc Godard 47, avg. score 62.2
Raoul Ruiz 38, avg. score 72
Rainer Werner Fassbinder 37, avg. score 63
Werner Herzog 29, avg. score 31.6
Eric Rohmer 28, avg. score 77.2
Abbas Kiarostami 25, avg. score 25.1
Peter Greenaway 23, avg. score 64
Pedro Almodóvar 22, avg. score 80.2
David Lynch 21, avg. score 35.3
Hal Hartley 19, avg. score 86.6

Ridiculous how many Kiarostami films I've seen considering how little I've enjoyed any of them (mainly on account of a comprehensive retrospective in the fall of 2019 that I frequented largely out of compulsion). Hartley should/would be higher if I'd bothered to rate all of his shorts.
