Which director do you own the most of?

[ngkf7]

Simple question: out of all of your Blus, most movies are by which director?

To the best of my knowledge, mine is Kubrick. I own Full Metal Jacket, 2001, Dr. Strangelove, and one of my all-time favorites, A Clockwork Orange.

I only have 60some movies in my collection, so I'm sure those with 200+ will be sure to have some serious overlap in directors.

[Rhylliam]

For DVD: 27 Spielberg DVDs (plus Close Encounters on Blu; multiples for JP1 & 2 at the moment tho).

For blus... I dunno really, if I include HD DVD its probably Kubrick here too.

[TeresofBlood]

Kubrick hahaha...

-Dr. Strangelove
-2001
-Clockwork Orange
-The Shining

I'll also pick up Eyes Wide Shut and FMJ one of these days.

You should get "The Shining"

[koontz1973]

Del Toro. Hell Boy 1 and 2.

[P@t_Mtl]

On BD right now I don't have a specific director in the lead for his movies (I should say her also)

On DVD well I would say that the directors I got the most movies from are Akira Korusawa, Spielberg, Lucas & Sergei Eisenstein

[Diesel]

Did a quick count since I only have 32 blu-rays:

Christopher Nolan x 3

Gore Verbinski x 3

Sam Raimi x 3

Bryan Singer x 3

Roland Emmerich x 2

Michael Bay

Jonathan Mostow

James Cameron

Chuck Russell

Rob Bowman

Marc Forster

Brian De Palma

John Woo

J.J. Abrams

Jon Favreau

Louis Leterrier

Francis Lawrence

DJ Caruso

Justin Lin

David Twohy

Martin Campbell

James Mangold

[Jim Morrison]

Stanley Kubrick - 5

John Carpenter - 3

[AikonEnt]

After a quick scan I'd say Tarantino. Kill Bill 1 and 2, Death Proof, Reservoir Dogs plus a 'guest director' on Sin City. Just edges out Michael Bay who I believe directed 4 of my Blu (The Rock, The Island, Pearl Harbour and Transformers) and the Wachowski Brothers (Matrix trilogy and Speed Racer). Plus others on 3 and 2.

[volcanopele]

On Blu-ray: Martin Scorsese (Casino, The Departed, Goodfellas, and Gangs of New York)
On Blu-ray and DVD: Ridley Scott (American Gangster [blu], Black Hawk Down [DVD], Blade Runner [Blu], Gladiator [DVD], Hannibal [DVD], Kingdom of Heaven [Blu, plus two DVD versions]); Steven Spielberg (Indiana Jones Trilogy [DVD], Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull [Blu], Minority Report [DVD], Saving Private Ryan [DVD], Schindler's List [DVD])

[neo_reloaded]

6 each for Stanley Kubrick and Clint Eastwood, and 5 for Francis Ford Coppola. I do love those directors, don't get me wrong, but I have a feeling the leaders of the pack would be slightly different if more movies were available on Blu-ray. Pretty sure David Cronenberg would be right at the top.

Not to nitpick, but Boyle didn't direct Weeks.

You are right, Fresnadillo did it. Boyle only produced it. I'll edit my post.

[The Big Blue]

DVD = Spielberg
Blu = Gore Verbinski < guessing

[F-Man]

I'm a sucker for these topics (almost posted in that pointless digital copy one), but I must say this is one of the best so far.

I think Stanley Kubrick wins with four: 2001 A Space Odyssey, Clockwork Orange, Dr. Strangelove and The Shining. Not to mention I'll probably get Eyes Wide Shut if I can't manage to remove it from my head (so you can consider it already bought) and I've yet to watch a bunch from him.

I've got only three from George A. Romero, because Night of the Living Dead and Martin are not out yet. And Land of the Dead sucked.

Also three from Christopher Noland, and I'll be buying The Dark Knight soon.

Three from Tim Burton, plus his produced Nightmare Before Christmas, and three from John McTiernan.

Two from Sydney Lumet (can't wait for 12 Angry Men), two from M. Night Shyamalan...

And Darren Aronofsky is one I'm eager to get more of. Only have The Wrestler but will buy Requiem for a Dream on day 1 and I don't know how much longer I can hold out for a price drop on The Fountain.
