Hi Jess, 'great idea! I have to narrow it down from about six or seven. I'm pleasantly surprised that I don't have to narrow it down from, I don't know, forty, lol.
I suppose if I had to chose one right now, I'd say the Coen brothers but I'm going to think on this a bit if that's ok.

@Jessica
You might, as well be asking what is my favorite flavor of ice cream, because I can't just pick one of those either. I got down to thirty-three.
It would be a shame for William Wyler and Billy Wilder not to make the list. I kinda wanna pick David Lean, but would pick Robert Wise, as I think both are drastically under appreciated, but Wise even more so. I think he is just below the John Ford and Steven Spielberg class, as far as, being able to direct any genre of film and deliver not a great, but an outstanding film. A lot of these directors are great, but excellent only within a limited range of genres, or choose not to stray too far from their comfort zone.
I am not sure he is my all-time favorite director, but for this poll Robert Wise would be my selection.
